Welcome!
Thank you for visiting my site. My name is Danny Granville and this is the very first post to Just Some Guy Trading™. I am a software developer and system administrator who decided to leave a very comfortable cubicle (and paycheck) to stay at home and trade the Foreign Exchange (Forex) market full time. There are a lot of reasons I decided to trade Forex, but for me the three most important are that it is fun, it can pay the rent, and I can spend more time with my friends and family.
Being a Forex trader can be tough, though. It’s all too easy to neglect doing a thorough analysis of the markets before entering trades (resulting in missed opportunities or trades that backfire). It’s even easier to let the broker’s statements be the only clue as to why you got in or out of a trade. And finally, it’s easy to stick with a mediocre trading strategy instead of putting in the effort of making it better or trying other strategies that may deliver the kinds of results you might be looking for.
Which is why I gave birth to this website. Having my ideas and trades out on the Internet for public scrutiny is the push I need to make sure I go the full mile when it comes to thinking through trading strategies and objectively gauging my own trading success. Plus, I really enjoy sharing what I think will benefit others.
I hope you find some information here that can benefit you.
