Let me state the obvious... The Whole Idea of The BOXES. is just that. The Leverage... that should not be something hard to get your head around it... AIMS levels are Leverage Machines ... haha

I think one rent was enoug there but you gave it another shot, which is ok and who said its not a good start. Remember, think probability mate. Think from a different perspective. Good or bad start is supposed to be based on these questions, Did I trade the Setup? if the answer is YES, its a good start if no, its a bad start and need to work on discipline. Whether the trade outcome was profit or loss is secondary thing. We need to understand this..

my 2 cents worth

cheers keep it up buddy!

and a full rent to finish the day off :(. Today has been my worst for a while (about 3% loss) so I will regroup and try again tomorrow, unless I see something interesting of course!

Range bound day on DAX makes it tough, hopefully a nice breakout for us today!
Now, I choose to make a profit in trading.
