G'day Folks

G'day Folks! My name is Bruce and I live in Brisbane, Australia. I've been trading part time for about 6 years. Previously I was trading All-Ordinaries (Aussie Stock Exchange) equities, indices and CFDs. Been trading FX on and off over the last 4 years. I am really glad to be here on this trading forum as I have followed Darren for almost a year now. Cheers Everyone.

 

Hi Bruce
Welcome, you'll be an old hand on Darren's methods then!

Cheers Tony

 

Thanks Tony for the welcome message. Yes, I have some experience with a few of Darren's strategies.
He is a mentor of mine. It's good to be here.

Cheers Mate.

 

Yep, he does come up with ideas way outside of the box and I have traded a few of them most to positive outcomes!
My biggest problem is trusting my own judgement so this mechanical entry suits me, pushing my judgement calls to just on exiting....

 

Yes Tony, I have the exact same problem. Mastering the psychology of trading is critically important to success in the long run. That's where I think Darren's 'left field' (if you like) strategies give us retail traders an edge. Utilizing Darren's trade entries as mechanical and non-discretionary, frees up our limited mental capacity for the all important trade management. Then hopefully, we can make prudent decisions on exit. I still struggle with exits. It's such a mind game, I have not yet mastered. Happy trading to you.
