Re: 10.2 forum
Wrong. They can read our minds. We think, "Let's try trading Forex" and they start to giggle.
Then we spend 5 years studying charts, learning systems, attending webinars, occasionally driving miles to attend seminars, design our own systems.
Then, the moment we are confident enough to go long, the bastards send the market plumetting. After first sending it 20 pips in our favour just to kid us we are making progress.
Yes, you are right again damn you. We are fine until we actually trade. Hey ho.

Re: 10.2 forum
As far as TRADING goes, I have not got a clue. But I have good knowledge of the occult, metaphysical and paranormal phenomenon and hocus pocus in general. We could employ variety of tools in order to avert the anger of the Gods of Forex (such as charms, spells, amulets, etc).
But IMHO what Bob described can be equally or even more effective. These being (I am Quoting BOB):
"1. trading small enough so no move in the market could kill me.
2. clearly identifying the different market moves.
3. final step was judging how strong/not strong those moves are."
We used to trade 10 cents for every $2000 a/c balance when we were practising recovery. That way even 4000 pip DD was just 20% of a/c balance. I think that is still a sensible lot size for 10.2.
Kind regards

Re: 10.2 forum
Well as people grasp and use the system I hope to take a rest. It has been a long journey getting to something that really looks like it will work in all kinds of markets. Hope all of you find your dreams.
