    A Simple Futures Trading Journal

    Well, here is a big mistake. I intended to just trade micros for the remainder of the evaluation so I created an ATM to use for all my trades. What happened? I accidently traded on NQ and violated the maximum position rule. Unbelievable on my part, but true. Anyhow, this journal is concluded!

    Another rough day! I had a hard time staying in sync with the market. I was up $450 and told myself, "Just one more good trade" and down I went. Fought my way back up to over $400 and said, "Just one more good trade, commissions are adding up." Down I went. This was my day, a roller coaster...

    This was my perfect setup but I was eating dinner and taking the dog out for a walk so missed it. I am expecting price to drop to 11100 specifically the 11093.25 area

    My wife's doctor appointment got changed to early tomorrow morning. It is across town and we will be fighting rush hour traffic so I won't be able to do much trading, if any tomorrow, so I am trading more tonight. So far, I am up $430 less commissions.

    Another typical FOMC day! A day of major roller coaster rides in price action accompanied by a lack of follow thru. My worst day yet in the evaluation! Day where my profits just seemed to follow the wild swings but I was never able to get higher than $150 in profits and ended way in the hole...

    A Simple Futures Trading Journal

    Today was a long, long day. It started last night where I went up $125 on a quick scalp. Then I tried 2 more trades later in the evening and both were losers so I entered the morning session down about $250. I had 2 good setups that just didn't work and got stopped out and was down over $450...

    Haven't actually done that! I have another guy that trades with me regular and we bounce ideas off one another and encourage each other thru chat. I've gone thru a lot of trading partners most of them don't last. I will think about the recording. The best trading partner I have had was an...

    Still moving forward which is really nice! Reached my goal early again today and switched over to sim. It took me a few more trades than I wanted but I still got there. I had the right direction and targets today but ended up with some small winners as price pulled back before reaching the...

    Just got home a little while ago and thought I would glance at the charts. NQ has had some great movement already. I saw one of my X2F setups and took +21 with just 1K to start the week. Here is a picture of the trade:

    @formikatrading - Is there a reason you went with Trademetria instead of one of the other programs like Tradervue or Tradersync?

    A Simple Futures Trading Journal

    Quick summary: I took a quick scalp last night on ES for 10 ticks and then gave $100 back later in the evening. Today, was perfect! The first trade was less than a minute and the second trade which I entered about 10 minutes prior to the open was closed w/i the first minute of the open. I...
