Hi kirby. Still pretty slow, EU going sideways (I'm up! I'm down, no, I'm up, oh, I'm down...)
The account is real money. I'm trying to work on some discipline issues to help me get past some psychological walls--certain dollar levels where I keep changing my trading style and piss away weeks of gains in a few days.
The idea was to follow some rigid rules with a small account and hold to the rules as the account grows. Except I stumbled out of the gate and was on the wrong side of some unexpected news movement. The problem now is Oanda won't let me fund through paypal or credit card, I have to mail them a check, which takes weeks. So I have to decide whether to try to play catch up, try to make back the loss and start though new, or write a check and wait weeks.
I can forgive a pink that lies to me, but I can't forgive a pink whose lies I believed.
