Reason Not To Be Greedy
The experienced and successful traders will say "Trading is a Journey". It takes a lot of experience to understand the ebbs and flows of the market. Sometimes it takes also a talent to be able to get that flow quickly. Well just wanna journal this down, that do not be over greedy. Markets can take out your stoplosses easily especially in forex. If wanna earn big, long term trades have to think like the institutional traders, they position and accumulate and have very wide stoplosses. Take profit when your strategy position is hit. Also trust your gut feeling and take profit when possible if you see a turn. Tuning my indices trading.
Message to myself: Small profits will accumulate and add on.

When Trades Go Right
Trading Forex is not easy as it gets volatile when news cause prices to go the wrong way. Profit after a long wait! Patience is the key.

Trading consolidation
Having difficulty trading the JPY pairs as they get stucked into consolidation and movements changes alot within minutes when I'm not able to look or just too stubborn to get out. Missing out on big movements which I could have taken but due to work I could not be on screen. Very tricky. Lessons are learned for this kind of trade and I probably will have to tweak my strategy for part-time trading.
Best profit for the week was on EURAUD. And my worst trading losses was given to JPY pairs and also EURAUD.

Patience.
Still in the red due to losses on AUD. Kept pushing up and breaking out causing a loss. Movements are always happening when I'm working. Need the right timing!
