….Yesterday afternoon, I closed down the platform, walked away from the computer and went for a walk with my little girl while my wife was still at work. I returned about 4 p.m., put daughter down for a nap, and then meditated upon the wins and losses and tried to determine what had happened and what I had let myself do in going against my trading rules.
At 7 p.m., I logged on to www.forexsrtrategysecrets.com, went through all of the videos, took notes, and refreshed my memory on the simple things that I had become somewhat complacent in doing. I went through videos a second time, a third time, and then a fourth time before finally going to bed (LOL) at 3 a.m. This morning I woke up, was excited to get the day started, made breakfast for my family, and then opened up my platform. Around 9 a.m., I was able to see wonderful setups from several currencies. I was back, my mind was clear, my confidence had returned and I was ready to go.
Suffice it to say, the account has grown $7,000 this morning up to the capital amount of $29,400 (1:100) because of one reason!!! I stopped, went back to basics that you both teach so well, refreshed my memory of these basics, took notes, and then started repeated the process four times.
This has become longer than I thought, but I do appreciate all that you two do in helping people like me learn that forex trading is actually fairly easy when keeping it simple and using the tools necessary. I appreciate everything you've done, everything you've taught me, everything you've written on your blog, and everything you've given free of charge because of your willingness to help others.
You're great people! You're great mentors! And I only hope to continue to associate myself with you both. Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!
-One Happy Trader!
P.S. Below are my trading rules:
1. Always trade with a stop loss.
2. Always trade with a stepping trail stop.
3. Always trade with the larger trend from H1 or H4 periodicity.
4. Always trade with between two to five percent of capital per position.
5. Always lock in pip profit with hard stop loss at 125 - 150 pips while letting remaining continue.
6. If three consecutive losses occur, stop live trading for 24 hours, return to notes, books, graphs, and trade demo.
7. Always keep it simple!
