4/2/2014 trades

hello trader 

today was a busy day we had 8 trade the market wasn't good and i suffers from watching the market trading in range , today i didn't go to work so i was watching the market and it's boring to wait for signal to accrue specially when you trade the 5 min , you must have a nerve of steel to keep up with market ,so the lesson from today is stay focus and don't let the market play you 

now let's talk about the trades we started a day buy on eur/usd from 1.3505 with small lot closed it for 5 pips 

then a sell on eur/aud from 1.5190 closed for +4pips  then another sell on the same currency pair from 1.5209 closed for +7pip

then we went to sell gold , a scalping with small lot size from 1251.99 closed it for +10 pips and took another scalping on gold  selling from 1250.97 but this time with high lot and this is the mistake a made unfortunately the trade got stopped out for -10 pips this should mean i'm on break even on gold but the difference of the lot traded putted in a negative territory in this affect the emotion very badly , so i kept fighting the emotion of revenge and then decided to took more trades so i bought gold from 1252.06 closed it for +6pips and a buy on gbp/aud from 1.8256 closed for -2.86 pip wich i wasn't planing to trade this pair i thought that I'm trading the EUR/AUD  but when closed the trade i was surprised that i'm trading another pair it's funny wright , thats what happen when you watch the market for a long time jumping from a chart to another .

the last trade was buy on eur/jpy from 137.27 closed for +4 pips 

i need to work more on controlling my emotion and letting my profits run

My trading approach and the 1k challenge

Hello traders

Happy new year to every one

Finally we are in the beginning of 2014 which I was waiting for to start the journey that I’m willing to share it with you.

We will  have a big challenge this year in my trading where I’m going to trade starting with a capital of 1000$  looking to build it up to 10k as a first step then 100k and finally to 1m .

This going to be a big challenge and it’s going to be hard, but I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get to the goal and make it happen.

I will share everything that going to happen in this journey whether it is a good or a bad and

This will help my discipline and make me stick to my plan.

Now let’s talk about my trading approach , I’m a technical trader and I focus more on price action and I made my own trading system that is based like I said on price action with the help of some indicators that  I completely understand how they work .

And for the most important thing that make a successful trader MONEY MANGMENT

I’m not going to risk more than 2% on a single trade so my lot size will be dependent on how much is my stop loses.

This going to be a long journey and we will going to learn a lot from it.

So good luck to everyone I wish you all the best
