Blubaru. It's obvious to me you have no discipline nor business plan and as a result, you will not succeed in trading. That's not a personal...
Thanks YoungOne. I'm psyched about this! It's not a problem to post the trades daily within a reasonably small time window. Also, there are...
What do you think is a reasonable time? Should I post the entry and the exit together or seperately? Most of my trades either work or don't...

I don't feel any different. I had the luxury of being very well capitalized and didn't sweat it out losing in the beginning. Never had to deal...
Clown, great job, really. I can't for the life of me understand why you haven't increased the contract size as your profits have grown. You are...
