Israeli072011:


you are gambling not trading.....0.35 lot to get $5 with GJ??

G.U....
Gambling you say .....

When I have my loss and profit spelt out ......

First ask how much I'm risking per trade and not how many lots I'm using....


Well....

I've improved from that now chasing a larger more pips...

And it's not $5


Was risking $50 to make $83
Thanks by the way

That's progress....

Now I'm starting the year this week ...

And I'm giving myself 2 months of practice before trying again.....

Made some improvements and changes to my strategy and method....

This two months all I want to achieve is discipline...

The strategy is fine..
Risk management in place

What is left is discipline to keep to those rules....
