Never happy!

[shadowninja]

I can't get no... satisfaction! (A gentle rant incoming...)

1) take one signal, get ~50 pips. Miss the next one worth another ~50 pips. Finish day in profit but disappointed.

2) jumped out of bed at 9am, placed two orders, went back to bed, got up an hour later, closed positions, made 108 pips but could have closed earlier so missed out on ~50 pips. Again, disappointed.

Anyway, I'm done for the week (positions closed at 11am); going climbing tomorrow!

Greed, terrible thing... we are only human though....... Think on the plus side... Bills paid? Cash in pocket? Going climbing tomorrow whilst most will be living the 9-5 life and wasting their days.....

Oh, and don't forget, there's over 50 pairs you could be trading, that's at least 500 pips you missed out on in the last 24hrs really!!!

For me, the escape from the slavery system is the most important thing.

Trading success = financial success = freedom to do as I please when I please

And that is exactly what I do

what i always say to myself when things like this happens, is : there will always be other opportunities, so chill, and i don't worry.

 

[shadowninja]

So true. I spotted another entry forming that'd have given me about 80-90 pips. Nearly opened but was planning to meet a friend for beer.

Trading rewards in half financial and half freedom.... Make sure you enjoy both!

 

[shadowninja]

That be true.

Not sure why I adopted a country bumpkin character there.

 

[wasp]

arrrr, it pays for the cider it does

 

[shadowninja]

That be true!

Well after a good night out on the lash I feel so much better, as my father says, 'you wont find your answers in the bottom of a beer barrel', as I say in response, 'your right, but it will take away the questions for the night'.

Well back to reality, oops there goes gravity. Will update my blog later with the disaster I had with the Nik, bigger disaster than Bush, nah, I kid.

After you make some nice points like that...withdraw a few hundred to blow on eating out or do something fun! Whenever I feel disappointed, I just remind myself that most people are locked down to a ****ty job that takes 1-2 weeks to make what we make in 1-2 hours!

Be happy with profit! Keep trading!
