Hello all, I've been training myself for the past few months on forex and stock trading, so far so good (especially for self taught). I'm well on my way and able to see the bigger picture, but my fine tuning needs some work. I'm beginning to get frustrated and down at this point as I have really high hopes for this (not unrealistic, just high) and am hoping to make a career out of trading. I do not personally know anybody else who trades and therefore am on my own. The part about trading that I appreciate the most is that we work for ourselves and that our own hard work determines our success. Having said that, about 4-5 months ago, I was part of a mass "down sizing" where I worked. I've always wanted to work for myself and saw this lay off as a sign. I quickly took action, having spent countless number of hours daily training myself, staying up all night at times if I had to, stopped going out just to give myself more time learning. I know I'm close to getting my system down, but something is still a little off and my entries/exits arent quite right yet. As I'm doing this alone, I cannot always see my own errors, only a 2nd pair of eyes can point out what I'm doing wrong. I am in the Dallas / Fort Worth area and very optimistically searching for a mentor or anybody that can give me guidance. If you are willing to help, or know anybody who would, please PM me, I am available anytime of the day, night, weekends, ANYTIME, this is priority #1 in my life. I thank you for having taken the time to read my post and thank you for any help you may be able to offer. Happy trading to all!
