You are trading on a scale of 3- 4 days and therefore a spike due to some economic news will not affect you as badly and since your stop loss will be much bigger pip wise (money wise still the same as you have adjusted your lot size to be smaller) and you will be well out of trouble and still in trade. Fluctuations of 50-60 pips will now start to mean nothing to you as you remain calm in pursuit of your first 500 pip trade. In fact it will also keep you away from the computer except for every 4 hours when you check up on your trade. This is necessary so that you do not mess with your trades. YOU happen to be the next biggest reason for your losses. But enough about you.
There is the light at the end of the tunnel. In case you ever wondered I want to make it clear to you – Yes you can make money trading and a lot of it and yes there are techniques that anyone can follow. Remember there are 25 experts in the paper this week. Hopefully at least one of those could do 5-6 profitable trades in a row. He’s the guy to talk to even if you have to pay him $10000 to teach you. Trust me, that pales in comparison to what you will lose without training.
