Hello everyone!
I am pretty new to the forex thing, only been doing it for 4-5 months and learning everyday. I wish I had known about this forum when I started, it would have saved me some money!
I have a small mini account that I opened up with FXCM and thought it would be interesting to have a journal of my trades and reasonings behind them so I could learn from myself and hopefully get feedback from other people.
I have the luxury to be doing this 24/7 if I want to, working from home has its advantages! So I thought i'd take up a hobby, with the potential of a little bit of a return.
So far it's been a rocky back and forth experience. I went up as far as 300$ on the mini account only to dive back down to 88$ because I held onto a position out of pure stubborness.
There's a glint of hope that by making my trades public that I'll be able to hold myself from making dumb reactive moves which have always seemed to cost me any profit made.
I trade on EUR/USD only at the moment and will occasionaly trade on foreign news. I love trading news because it helps with my overall balance,but I have lost a few times because of harsh pullbacks (screw you banks with all your monies!).
well, that's it for now...
Beginning balance : 100$
Ending balance : 154$
I'd post the transactions and some graphs, but my client won't connect cause they're closed and my charts are somewhat lame.
