It hits 1.6000!

Damn! The Euro finally hits 1.6000 against the US dollar! Although i can’t find any news to support why it manage to go up to 1.6000, but it has been trying to breach that for some time now. And it finally did, and now it’s hovering above 1.5970 point (at the time of writing).

It’s just too bad i didn’t get into the trade earlier. Else, i would have pocketed some nice values into my savings account. The market is a little bit too wild today - it goes up and down at it’s own will and i couldn’t really find an entry point.

Unnerving

Unnerving. That’s what i can describe my experience trading forex using my own money. Read: real account, with real money. Although i have almost-sufficient practise on the demo account, it’s still scary to click to open a position to start playing.

The first trade - was in fact, hesitantly done. Hehe. Yeah - i know i shouldn’t do that, but i some how got scared on clicking that open trade button to start playing. With the market swinging up and down, by the time i got in, it was already mid-way, and i’ve got to wait longer before i could close the trade.

I’m in

Finally i submitted that application to open the real account, playing forex. While i wouldn’t be playing any real money till next week, this somehow excites me a lot. Just like when i got my stock trading account a few years back.

While waiting for the submission, i tried their live chat support, and managed to get my application submitted while the support was still online with me. Managed to get a few queries answered as well - like how to deposit and withdraw (duh!). At least, i don’t have wait too long that i needed acne treatment. Wait - my face don’t have any acne!

250 in 30!

I didn’t thought that i’m able to get that. At least, i haven’t really look into that yet. What’s that 250 in 30 all about? How about making US$250 in just 30 minutes? Yeah - not real money, it’s all play money. How? Forex lor…. tonight’s market is a little bit crazy. I almost fall off my seats looking at the chart going all the way up. Since i’m playing more like a day-trader, i closed all my positions when i get more than US$10, and i open another position.

I kept doing that like a clockwork. Of course - i look at where the market will lead me first - up or down. If it looks that it’s going up, then i’ll close one position and open another one almost immediately. And just now, within 30 short minutes, i have done 14 trades, making US$250 in play money. All the while still keeping another position open.
