yes, in fade, i would have max 2 positions in at a time. It's because it's really hard to pinpoint to a level when you fading the market; as opposed to trading with trend/momentum and you have that push behind your trades. Trading against the momentum to me requires more room, hence the 2...

if you don't believe my reasoning to cut one livestream short cause i had to go without commenting, then hey that's what you can believe. i've posted it after i've ended the stream and you'll see in the weekly pnl that the numbers will all match the question about ego and all this, again, this...

i like that feature . but i don't trade with sierra. iike i said , its just a show and tell for streaming. i trade off tradingview cause i i like cloud , no restrictions

i got tilted because i was mad it didn't go anywhere. i'm just an angry person in general lol but you're right, that slow creep upwards was confusing. I put the reverse from like 4 to 8 to 12..i was like ..if it's creeping up, it better shoots even momentarily. Which IT DID. but i realized how...

that was a a tilt day. got frustrated market wasn't really going anywhere...flip the switch on the long side and bailed out..down little over 5k. video should archive soon So many issues to work on. the tilt has been consistent, but it's less damaging then it used to be. Everytime i got these...

i think we;re getting way ahead of ourselves here. Even though the goal is (possibly) getting the cme membership, it won't happen until i get to that goal account of 150k and trading the appropriate size. No point of going further with the taxes/regulations discussion before i can establish...

My strategy is backtested..it's fine. Like you said, 1 down day doesn't mean a thing if you have the stats to back it up, unless of course it was an outlier. But i definitely saw an improvement needed. You keep bringing up the muted video and making quite a longshot assumptions on my state of...

man that was a hard session. it's good that i got it on video cause i definitely saw an issue at 1:34:30 after the winning trade. i usually wait for the hour to complete before taking another trade (1 per hour). But i was just "convinced" that the range is established and we were going back to...

so what does this mean? we shouldn't post pnl? calls? i was just starting with this forum damn it

That makes no sense. Why would they care about what you do in regards to your account and what you post online? And whoever quoted Elon musk issue was completely off base. He's a fucking CEO of a A PUBLIC COMPANY..so misleading tweets on direction of company deserve investigation. Was that post...

i'm not going for the seat until i get to 150k trading 3-12 contracts. At that point, it's worth it, even if it's just a few hundred/month savings (net monthly fees). few hundred is few thousands in a year. In my houseshold, if i can realize that kind of saving in anything, i'd go for it. But...

So here's my performance so far. Just a daily grind. I'm a big believe that you need to make money 90% of the trading days. Is that grounded or logical..i don't know and don't give a shit. If I can't do it, i'll just give up and focus on my career. But for now I am grinding slowly (as opposed...

the micros with exception of the MES, is a bit off in terms price to profit unlike the minis i did some calculation and it takes 2 ticks to net profit in micros vs jsut 1 tick in minis..

my strategy requires 1-4 contract sequence at the very MINIMUM. So $5000 is all i had when i started (after recent blowout trading double contracts). So I THINK i learned my lesson with tilting at $5000 restart, it was huge risk, i know.But shit I had no choice. I didn't want to put back...

My goal is to hit $150k trading 3-12 contracts. Currently trading 1-4 contracts. I figure at $150k my monthly comm without membership will probably be around $2000. I currently use AMP .5 amp 1.18 cme .02 nfa .1 cqg =3.6/rt + 5/month for data with membership if i'm not mistaken .5 amp .35...

So before I make a post on how I approach trading, I'm going to migrate over what I've done so far. I had about $5000 left of the futures account when I started the journal in June 2019. I was doing a weekly updates on the progress. I use my own spreadsheet and a weekly statement to verify for...

Starting this thread to document my goal of becoming a CME leasing member (B3) Brief history on myself.. Started OTC forex daytrading in 2009. Fast forward 7 years, I managed to net about $50k. That's roughly $3.72/hour, but it's actually a lot less cause I was trading/learning forex pretty...
