I do not have a PhD in Mathematics…
I don’t have some “secret cheat code“…
I am just a guy who understands a tiny bit about finance, investments and how quickly a market can move against (which it often does).
I can't decide if I'm annoyed, disappointed, or just shocked.
Long @ 24,525 (Daily Support).
Reality: It lasted 10 minutes...floor caved instantly...STOPPED OUT
Another loser...Disappointing

I analysed the #DAX drop to 25,210 perfectly. I watched it hit the level. I watched it bounce.
Did I catch it? No. Why? Because I was too busy typing up the analysis to click the "Buy" button. F****** IDIOT

Tuesday: Stopped out on a #FTSE short
