    Hi Whikka,

    Thank you!
    As I said above, whatever happens in the future, up until today the travel itself fulfilled a fantasy.
    There is a lot of debate what is possible and what is not possible, for people who paid attention it ought to stand it's possible to accumulate around 7 digit prices starting from 5-10k, and making single digit monthly gains for a year.
    (I had little longer to begin with, and once in a while per month struck double digit profit, but this isn't the issue to focus on, as far as the rest, actually).

    Thus, what is next?
    I shall exchange as always, and there is still some landmarks to reach, or could call them private goals.
    But I believe as in trading itself, need to look things rationally.
    This circumstance it means sometimes it's easier to reach the top than stay on the top, with more motivation driving you. Like in game.
    Winning the Olympic gold is a fantastic motivation, but is winning another 4 yes afterwards, or a third, exactly the same motivating force? Often not.
    On the other hand following some medals a new motivation can come to play, like being the best, winning the most medals...

    The analogy of course only a play on thoughts. I still have plenty of those landmarks to attain, but one has been filled, namely getting fixi alloion to 1 million .
    It is only preparing mentally for the next, in my way, shing from one goal to the next, and trying to maintain my drive forward.

    Holiday is getting slowly to the finish, maybe for the better, cos becoming small sunburned.

    I am fine, the usual blue mood only, and more importantly the precaution space from market to restrain emotional incline to do ridiculous things.
    Yes, we're there, me included, so, in a way routine process. But regular doesnt make it any more plesent to perform, however
    with the month down -6.3%, I had worst. To be on course generally I am thinking in 1 percent per week about. . .where the 6 months came from.
    Usually if in a drawdown my focus tend to be sharper, idk why, only appear to be, but every time is different, so, to be seen just how it goes this time.

Overall surprise!! Was expecting a test end of March, with possibility to double the prior 250k alloion... Of course, keep in mind that the -3.5% maximum DD limitation doesn't...
    Sincere and warm congratulations , my buddy !
    You've created an intelligent, sensible and prudent path and also so you have been rewarded.
    You're a real trader, there aren't many... and you deserve all the best.
    Happy vaion !

    I'm back!

    Vaion is over, and with a brief 8 hours of driving back in home.
    Coming weekend, I will post a few more photos from the second half of this trip.

    Besides a few tiny trades in my personal account, there was no trading generally.
    Now missed the fantastic opportunity of this GBP news, and even though just barely, but the CAD news too...
    nevertheless, just to return to this game, did a few smallish entrances on the aftermath of this news, to get a trendy 0.11%.
    Being Friday, and me feeling exhausted and rusty the same time, I believe better to call it a day there.

    happy weekend!

    GBP you didnt miss the news, it was spike, just before I was next quessing buying EURGBP. During your vaion there were several nice moves.
    I will end much better than January, I suppose you would done well, but as you say there is allways a new trade. Fantastic Weekend for you.

    So, no news then
    the effect in my trading would be the same, only assumed it was by that...

    this 2 weeks I might have some nice trading, did quite good on my personal account, with a single real nice day. . .that if traded full scale, and across the portfolio would make a nice effect for the month. But overall things are up, and there is still another few days made out of the month...I can nevertheless make something.
    Most important it is a profitable month so far.
    (and of course my buddy had a great time here in Thailand, and that it was fine to see them!)

    happy weekend!

    What I discovered recently, a negative effect of being profitable, is that the person is taken from this activity and usually sent in a holiday, give freedom and free time, ... It should be quite bad, since so many pick the other way!
    I seem to get hit by this unwanted effects too! I try all the probable ways like go holiday and hope to be profitable after!

    Welcome back and here to stay, in a profitable manner!

    Hi aa4fx,

    just like in an extent each job, it is important to maintain a fantastic work/life equilibrium to not 'burn'.
    In a way it is inspiring to earn an increasing number of cash, but more not alone, but from the way it interpret to be able to perform or buy an increasing number of thigns that you wish to yourself.
    Of course until a while it is hard enough to try to create (and maintain!) 1 week positive, one month positive, 10-20-30 winning days in a row, 1 year without losing month, etc.. .but after some point it is hitting a point where it is less interesting, and at the large picture comes a need to balance use lifestyle choices.
    On this I dont mean anything large, not in a sense some youtube marketers makes you think it is all about Lambos or elaborate Michelin meals.
    More such as the liberty to be able to take 1-xx days off from work. Or maybe slip on the grocery list a few things that you werent buying before... etc..
    Just it is important to keep in mind that the sum to come. . .and not like most so often does, first invest, then try to earn it. I take out loans to buy things, and definitely not depreciating assets, such as automobiles. Cash guy. Credit card has one use: online shopping.

    Currently I feel the month is negative, although I am up, the spending somewhat outpaced the earnings. Thus, it is easier to discover targets.
    the current short-term goals: complete February without a losing day, and also make March a powerful month. Additionally thanks to VPS, the EA we're working on was running full auto the previous 2 weeks, and the result is real great. . .good enough it is going back to live account next week. Suppose there may be a few glitches nevertheless, and a few differences between live and demo benefits, but one can not know people ( and perform the necessary alterations) without assessing live.
    This is the way it performed during the holiday, I know you like EAs (along with your current project is, I believe, the best long term one for you!)



    happy weekend!

    absolutely ! After all life is measured by the moments and adventures we pursue not how much we can earn per month, daily and every year. And it is too short to squander away on making pips every day each month. I discovered that sky isn't the limit with trading sky would be that the or should be the limitation if you want to be content and happy with your life.
