    Probably not. At most I might swing trade forex from my phone on a small account just to stay in touch with things and practice a bit.

    3rd losing day in a row. First entry wasn't too bad other than that I was too shook to re-enter when I should have. 2nd trade was me trying to get cute and pick the top based on the break of the overnight high + some desperation.

    Thanks, I appreciate it very much. I do have playback.

    Its a "supply and demand zone" indicator. I just have it set to a 15 minute chart, and use it as a visual reminder of where swing highs and lows are on higher time frames.

    Here's my chart from yesterday, another losing day. But once again I did what I said I would do and limited my losses to $100. I figured they would run price up and take stops from people trying to pick the top and go short after that early uptrend which they did eventually, I was just too early...

    Will do. The pattern is i get gunshy and weak handed early on in a move, and then overly aggressive when its too late and opportunity has dried up. Need to find a way to show up with a bit more agression in the morning.

    Haha the cool thing is its an '05, first year he was in production. They have a very mid-range forward, blazing tone, think 80's hair metal/arena rock, Van Halen-esque. Its perfect for cutting through the mix onstage alongside bass drums and other guitars. Carves out its own frequency range so...

    October/November is actually a North American run. US, Canada, and waiting to hear back from a festival in Mexico city. Its too expensive to fly gear overseas, luckily we have a deal with a UK amp manufacturer called Orange, they just let us borrow whatever we want when we're over there. Another...

    Nope, not high frequency. Just repeatedly trying to jump in late on a trend. I agree, I was way too late. I need to really work on that, its been a recurring theme.

    Got the amps out for some testing ahead of this tour. The Splawn is my main rig, Marshall is a backup. Scott Splawn makes great amps, they are basically hot rodded Marshall jcm-800 circuits with his own selection of components. This amp is extremely loud. I genuinely felt like I was committing a...

    Thanks for your interest! Usually, we are packed up and ready to leave the venue by around 1am. Then its drive to the lodgings, usually sleep from about 2-3am to 7-8am. After a show yes you are drained and coming down from adrenaline, and its slightly depressing seeing everyone leave and the...

    First red day in 10 trading days. Pretty normal fuck up for me. Was weak handed on that first short, sat idle and then got way too aggressive trying to chase the end of the trend with obvious signs of buying coming in. What is kind of ironic is that if I would have just continued scalping like I...

    Didn't take any trades today. Still managing BBBY puts so just want to get that out of the way first. Plus, I wasn't a big fan of the choppiness on ES today. Here are my updated stats since the last performance card I posted: Also, here is a cumulative net profit graph from my trading...

    Took me a couple tries to get into position on both of those short sequences. But the wins easily covered the losses.

    First sequence of the day, a short position. In this case I decided to tighten my stop a bit, take a 3-point loss, and then look for another entry. Once I was in a clean lower high, I started adding on and tightening my stop behind consecutive power bars. Closed because of the ranging...

    Had 10 ticks of slippage off of a sell stop on the 3rd contract of that first short sequence. Actual order was 1 tick below the previous relatively equal lows. Pretty funny. So I booked what I had there since I didn't like that fill. Re-entered a 1 lot just in case the stop run continued. Was...

    What Performance Metrics do you like to Track?

    Whats a good number to shoot for? Last week mine was 2.80 over 40 contracts traded, just trying to frame how good that is.

    Only took 1 trade today, a long at 10:30am. Didn't add on, price shot up as I was trying to get a buy stop in, and I decided not to chase.

    Today's run-for-the-exits @ market close

    My friend trades ethereum, one thing we noticed is that eth led the rest of the market on this rally, and it also led the way on the down turn.
