    jasinhbca's quest for discipline, knowledge & profits

    1 trade, -10. Rollover week choppy. This might be a borderline set up. Technically I can't fault it except the pullback wasn't real "clean". Two reasons to exit earlier than I did but stayed with the structure stop. Unless anybody sees anything terribly wrong with this i'll put in the...

    Making of a method

    if I'm understanding your chart correctly you are sometimes scaling out of trades. You went long around 8:50. Why not exit 1 (or some quantity) near the HOD around 3604 ? Same thing on the 9:50 short and LOD. just curious.

    jasinhbca's quest for discipline, knowledge & profits

    I had posted earlier in the CL thread that 94.60 was a target. (The same reasons, hourly upper channel & that swing) Then when it got there, IDK if I forgot about it or gave it one of those- let's see what happens. I think more of the latter which is my plan for now. Early exits when my...

    jasinhbca's quest for discipline, knowledge & profits

    I'm trading too cautiously. After booking some profits I kinda think , "Well, I'd be happy to finish the day just like this." Sort of a go slow build confidence approach. But I need to keep trading the plan, accumulating stats and getting the practice in. Plus, today it would have led to more...

    Front running you again but you got the better price and less risk. In at 10:47; out at +25. And no guts to take any more trades. Nice trading !

    jasinhbca's quest for discipline, knowledge & profits

    Hard to sum up the day. I felt calm and well aware of what I should be doing. The action was a bit choppy and I kept thinking of rollover week and how this may lead to poor PA. My first trade I moved my stop closer too quick and the second trade I exited out of plan based on the PA showing...

    Yep, tapping the foot rapidly also helps to protect those stops. :D I don't do that anymore :) Only the 1 trade today.

    I took Saturday off with intent to reply on Sunday. Turns out my family threw me a surprise b-day party Saturday night. Sunday I ended up spending more time with friends that flew down from NorCal. I'm a lucky guy. ============ ND, thanks for that info. Very glad to know I wasn't alone...

    jasinhbca's quest for discipline, knowledge & profits

    Today I traded Live. 2 trades +46 I was very pleased with the outcome and lost some focus after the second trade so stopped trading. The second trade I was very nervous when price stalled after entry. It took a fair amount of talking myself through it to stay calm and stay in the trade. I...

    Thanks for the chart, RN. You got me thinking about TL's some more. I remember years ago playing with them. Maybe after reading Edwards & Magee. They looked great. Enter on this TL cross, exit up here on this cross. Perfect. I used to get William O'neils Daily Graphs every week and for...

    Thanks RN. And i do remember the days where I felt I had to trade everyday. Always afraid I'd miss the big move. Finally over that. ============== I've simmed the last couple days like I've never simmed before. Taking it seriously and with a plan that I'm following with good discipline...

    The CL/NQ experiment

    I'm no expert however my understanding is that we have evolved to not like change. Our current state we may be in is safe or at least known. A change my involve unforeseen risks that could cause as harm or take us from even a bad situation to a worse situation. Our subconscious will do what in...

    Quick update: Had a bit of a cold around x-mas/new years so didn't get to do as much back testing as I would have liked. Planned on doing sim a few days this week but having connection problems. Anyone using Mirus/Zenfire knows that their system has been down pretty much since xmas. No data...
