Trader_dante said it would be a good idea for me to start a thread and I thought he was right because it would quicken the learning process. I just Funded an account with £100 and I am going to turn it into something great (hopefully) but I am going to stay positive and post every trade on this thread and I welcome all comments, criticism and ideas to improve my trading.

Quick tip:

Use ODL markets and deposit £200 and if you lose it all you can reclaim it.
Free Portfolio, Share dealing, ISAs, PEPs, SIPPs, CFDs, Spread betting - Interactive Investor fund you with free £100 (which can offset your losses - i'm currently doing an experiment with them )

Good Luck!

Today at 7:45am GMT I placed a trade on gbp/usd 15min at 1.4828 with a stop at 1.4863, the reason for my entry was a break of the IB that happened after a touch at a resistance zone. The trade went in my direction until a touch on previous resistance that turned into support which turned the trade around and it went back into the zone, at this point I was definitely sure that it was going back down. To my surprise it broke right through previous S&R, so I moved my stop to 1.4804 so i could capture a bit of profit and I thought there was no way it was going to come back this far (but in this game almost anything is possible) and I got stopped out with a small profit.

Today I placed a trade after along time because I've been having problems with my desktop anyway I went short the EUR/USD, got filed at 1.3979 and got stopped out at 1.4000. The reason for me getting into this trade was the shooting star pattern that happened at 10:45 at the 1.4000 levels which I thought would turn the trade around. Oh well I guess these things happen.

sorry no pic because I'm trading from my laptop
