Why I should've blogged on Steemit Instead of trading the forex market this week.

So trading the GBP/JPY hasn't been my most successful week on the market. Got my positions stopped out on XAU/USD last week too and took my biggest loss so far and now it looks like I'm now stuck with the -$300 open position on my latest trade, going to need a miracle to pull myself out of this one. 


So I'm taking some time off the fiat money machine and going to dive into the world of steem by putting a few blogs up and reading like I've never read before. I've never really been the type to put much up on my facebook or anything like that but I think I'm starting to enjoy steem community more and more. 

I feel like i'm getting a step closer with each article, making progress and never perfection. Still need a some help with increase text size and adding youtube videos to my blogs though. This will be my first working/trading day off tomorrow so I will find out what I can get done. 

Looking forward on making my first dollar on a post, I tried to put my first investment in steem yesterday but the transaction still were disabled (due to hack?), like to know when its back on anyways, so I can get this ball rolling. 


Lets have look at what could've happened last week. 


A) Trade the forex                                  -$500 

B) Trip out on LSD                                  -$30

C) Post a makeup tutorial on steem     +$10,000-30,000


Well there you go, I still know nothing. I'll just keep on doing what I'm doing expecting a different result.

kind of looks like,i've covered all my losses on this blog alone, I was never expecting this much support.

If the euro goes away( I know big if) would there be a big opportunity on the Forex markets?

Of course. Crazy things will happen on the market then. Look what the brexit did on its own. Made some nice money with it...

Yeah. Gold and silver raised up for days, was an interesting watch.

Sorry i couldnt comment, its a big if and its too speculative for me say but I will say In times of uncertainy people love holding on to gold. You can check the gold charts of xau(gold)/usd during the brexit or the 2008 housing bubble.

what kind of trading are you into?

Hey man, nice post :)

Transactions are back up as of today, and there's also an editor button on the top write corner of the typing box. To post a youtube video just copy and paste the link.

Happy Steeming brother!

hahaha. live and learn.

Made me laugh with the price comparisons

To get out of difficulty, one usually must go through it.

Might want to cash out right when the payout hits. SBD is trading at a ~15-20% premium at the moment. So the amount shown is actually smaller than the actual USD payout when you convert SBD -> BTC -> USD.

More than covered your losses! ;-)

Thanks for the tip, ill look into it.

I wish you all the luck...not too late for make-up tutorials!

maybe not but I still rather take option B
