I'm just playing small until I get consistent and disciplined - I have a bad habit of getting absorbed in the chart then taking 50/50 guesses, i.e. I stop following my rules. My rules are great, but my discipline is still weak. But IF you are consistent, then you can put large amounts on. Even bet $50 per pip, and you make $2,000 per week with total wins of only 40 points per week. Then if it stays consistent, you can keep increasing the bets and retire in a year. Consistency is everything. Of course, the other approach is FA, e.g. if you KNOW the market will fall 200 points, then put on a big amount once per week.
The palpitations is because tonight is a twitchy night. When it's more steady, there are no palpitations. Also, it's tricky to keep this thread updated at the same time. But it might help my discipline.
