I want to see the Avenger's but i cant because..

I trade 4 hour charts, and i can't bring myself to leave my trades un-monitored D: this is a legit question, those of you out there who do trade 4 hour candles, when do you decide when to miss a candle? I mean who doesn't love money but i have been dying to see this movie for years (since the animated version), Normally I am at my computer every 4 hours, every day, every week, i never miss a candle, and when i am away from my computer i have price alerts sent to my phone as well as my MetaTrader app, so if i were to be in the movie i would not only miss a candle but i would have to mute my phone and miss potential price alerts for my open trades

Aha perhaps, I never believed in that whole overtrading thing.. It's okay though! Because I decided I couldn't wait and watched it, I just tightened my stops and take profits and let 137 pips roll in while I watched Scarlett Johnson clad in leather, totally worth it :[

I have been trading off the 4H charts for the past couple of weeks and am doing quite well -- and I've seen The Avengers TWICE already, SJ. Get on the ball, man!

well in my opinion they are the most awesome of all time frames, long term enough to let you have a life, short term enough to catch consistent pip movements ahh!! yeah i need to get into gear, im going to see it again saturday :3

Haha, I feel like this is a setup or something! I want to see the Avenger's too, but I always get stuck with annoying, talking or texting teenagers... so I wait until this stuff comes out on video.
Not that I'm telling you how to trade but if you're working off 4hr charts you should be looking to hold your trades for at LEAST a day. No need to check every single candle. If your trades are decided on anything higher than a 1hr chart I feel that you should be able to step away for the day, go do the family thing (see movies etc), and check your trade before the NY session (or after, whatever works).

In the future, get yourself the phone app for your broker. I use Oanda, and I can quickly check and see if I need to close a trade out on my phone, or just check the movement. I use 4h charts a lot too, and this helps a lot with my overall frame of mind.
