Master Don Juan
XAU/USD: 2000 units of gold closed for 520 pips. That was 10,000 dollars, since it was a bigger investment than the rest. CHF/USD hit the stop-loss and bailed with about 10 pips worth of profit.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Have you ever had a -330 pip loss?????TheNewGuy said:Wowwwwww. I just lost half my money with XAG/USD.
People, make sure you research your stuff before you go into a market not knowing that 1,000 units can lose you $450.
Time to start over =/
At some points it was -2450.SELF-MASTERY said:Have you ever had a -330 pip loss?????
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Please explain further. Its nice to be pessimistic, and quote big names. Are you an investor or are you doing the same things as Graham?sparky0000 said:Doesn't surprise me that "Don Juan" types would be falling for this. Is FX a scam? No, not really...BUT you have about as much a chance hitting it big in FX as you do playing craps. Wealth accumulation should be viewed as a long term process. Benjamin Graham is a name that you should get to know.
While smart investors will retire rich, you'll be working until 65 relying on social security. I suggest you learn about investing before you speak.sparky0000 said:Doesn't surprise me that "Don Juan" types would be falling for this. Is FX a scam?

My boss makes an additional $800 a week playing craps, two days out of the week for like 4 hours a day.sparky0000 said:Doesn't surprise me that "Don Juan" types would be falling for this.

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Just sayin...
Exactly, there's risks in everything. Don't want to take risk? Then you have no chance of a big reward.MetalFortress said:While smart investors will retire rich, you'll be working until 65 relying on social security. I suggest you learn about investing before you speak.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
I think most of us won't make money in forex, but it is nice to learn something new. I was taught never to play in any -gambling-type- game if you do not know what your edge is, and in forex I haven't figured out what my edge is; I doubt 95% of the people that trade currency know what their edge is...Permission said:If you guys think you can make money on this, what sets you apart from all the other people who are trying to make money on this? Most people lose money on this, and the expected value is actually zero.
Why? Opening a demo account has no negative effects...g g g unit said:http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/5250250.stm
