Now, was about 8 pips profit from 12:30pm to 1:30pm EST.. No news now, it was quiet and slow this day.
So... 20 trading days have passed. That's approximately one month's worth of attempts. Where does my account stand? As of the end of now, up roughly 0.5 percent, 181 trades, 52% winning trades.
Perhaps you will do better? Or perhaps you will fall prey to the 95% losers in Forex theory.
I've made many mistakes and managed to break-even. I'm very blessed. There is a ton of risk on the market as I hope I've shown.
My biggest problem at the moment, is the absence of discipline and switching styles every other day based upon outcomes. This is the most concentrated effort I have put in since finding forex. Before... I'd trade a few days, then miss a few. I have now strung together without missing one. That's a beginning, but I need the display time that is consistent also, a certain schedule. Frankly, I'm having difficulty waking up by 8 or 9AM EST..
Hopefully, others will see the possible pitfalls here, and prepare for them in their own trading.
