Very happy with my result this month, though they are nothing more than breaking even from my April's devastating month. Most of the trades, I have been lucky for this month, ever since the lucky NFP catapult trade, those dangerous pullbacks and averaging-ins.. if they were to went against me thing would've been very different.
One of the thing I have improve this month is the using of position sizing. I used different sizes of pips a lot, depending on the confidence of the entry. I did not force myself to trade most of the night, so I still enjoy quite a bit of personal life in balance.
But there is one thing that is still grey, I wonder if I could take loses. I have been lucky to win most of the nights this month, what if there was a losing night? Would my revenge monster rage and do all foolish things again? Or is it due to some kind of revenge that I turn some losing night into wins, due to luck?
Nevertheless, I will approach the new month with high caution like this one. I cannot let down my guards because I still do not know if this revenge syndrome has been curbed. Happy to make new trader friends along the way with this blog. Thanks everyone for the support & encouragement in between and let's work hard together!

A nice month's work *AND*, more important than a single month's data, you seem to be aware of the potential pitfalls.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, congratulation!
ReplyDeleteThank u LW! yeah man. Being aware of the pitfall is the first step towards handling it. I will not say in future I will be able to stop myself from doing foolish things, afterall we're humans and emotional, just hope this revenge monster will be 'tamed'. :)
ReplyDeleteHello FX! Thanks, July will be a better month for us! Weeee...
ReplyDeleteBlack,
ReplyDeleteI found myself have the same 'revenge' attitude from my fortnight review.
Congratulations!
Realization is the first step of breakthrough! Only when we recognize it, we are able to minimize it!
I trust that you can make it! More profitable weeks ahead!
Really Ayumi? You seems to be more calm than how you describe yourself :)
