Honest Bill & Bloom,

Thanks for your open and frank posts - it gives hope to the rest of us newbies that even our more experienced trading friends get it wrong sometimes, and exactly the same way I do! From this week on, any 'naughty' trades such as jumping in, or countertrend , or not waiting for a proper trigger, and I'll be red-carding myself for the rest of the session. Likewise once I've made the target. Once again I managed to nearly double a small practice (not demo) account within 3 days taking proper pukka trades - triggers, partial profit taking, the works - only to chuck it all back and a little more with some naughty trades. No more!

Looking forward to a good week, keep up the good work!
