The hangover (Risk managment again)

for Nico,

This is a summer film, nothing more, but very well done, a superb comedy with perfect gags. Four male friends travel to Las Vegas for a mad bachelors' party. They wake up next morning in their suite with a terrible hangover, they can't remember anything from the previous night, a tiger is in the bathroom, a baby in the closet and one of the friends is missing... The fun(?) just starts..

There is a three-words proverb in ancient greek : Ανήρ αεί παίς - the male is always a child. The male (not the female) can do stupid things, he loves to do stupidities. For one simple reason : he is not absolutely necessary in the reproduction conspiracy. He can take his life lightly, he can risk, he can waste or lose his life for nothing : just think about the men/women ratio among fast drivers, extreme sports gamers, war photographers, drug addicts, gamblers, traders, religion fanatics and so on. More than 8 to 1... Taking the life lightly is a meditation on futility..Only the male has the luxury of futility... That's why he is funny..

Don't miss the film..

Ending July

Not much this last day of the month, due to the late entry on the first trade, which (naturally) gave a loss. Ending a profitable month, time for some vacation now.

Afternoon session

My 5 trades for today. There is a strong resistance at 134.72 from a 4-hour chart fibo line. Better to stop here and not chasing the breakout.

My time slot

A smooth breakout and pips in my time slot.

And this

One risky trade on this, expecting the move up.

That's all for today. 31 pips in 7 trades and 55 minutes. I can go swimming now.

9 o' clock

The nice and smooth breakout happened at 9:00 precisely (8:00 CET), at Frankfurt opening. Trading is easy! lol. Second trade at fibo 50% of previous and new support line.
