Day Trading & Forex Forum

Evening all...

Trust all are well...Wanted to introduce myself as i will be posting here on a daily basis and will be discussing usdchf, eurusd, gbpusd, usdjpy, gold and oil.

Hopefully i can give u a good insight into how i trade and how i make my pips.

I will be discussing money management a lot, as so many traders fail in this area.

I will be looking at these markets at around 6.45am and will post a few words of wisdom and will be posting a few ideas when and where i see them...I made 180 ish pips to day so a happy weekend ahead...

I do not trade all the time and probably max 3 hours per morning. My average pips each day (depending on market conditions) is around 50 -100 pips and has been for a while now.

I do this full time for a living, after a career in banking and left london to live in the sun 6 months ago.

I do hope i get some good characters on this thread and hopefully have a little fun.

I will try and answer questions as quickly as possible but please take it easy, as i refuse to look at charts all day...

Speak to you on monday.

Hi D.

Welcome to T2W.

Silly question, but were you a trader for the banks you worked for?

Hello danarm,

It says you are from Twickenham. That's my home town...

Good job on starting a journal. I will be interested to read your thoughts and analysis.

All the best.

Tom

Hi

Yes i did the usual Uni, Grad Scheme and straight onto Cash desk...Moved around room in 1st year, then currency options desk asked me to join them. Did this for a few years then got bored of London and went to HK. Great fun..Worked hard and played hard!!!

Realised then that it was silly to work 20 hours a day, when I could work 3 hours a day from home and actually see my lovely wife and litle girl.

Anyway thats my life story...hahaha.

Beautiful day here so dont know why i got up and looked at my PC on a sat morning. Must get a life!!!

Off for a run...
