Alright sounds like you have done your due diligence...looking forward to the journal!

Ok I see. Do you know how much training you will get before you actually go live? Have you talked to anyone who has gone through this program? Are you being paid a salary? Being without a salary is one of the tougher things for newer traders who are being compensated purely from pnl whether...

Are you going into a trading group with a mentor or on your own once you start? Working with someone who knows what the hell they are doing helps... ALOT lol

You also can't just throw the kitchen sink at the problem and hope for it to go away. If you are going to use visualization as a tool, you will have to do it constantly. Multiple times a day. The longer your bad habits have been in place the more visualization it requires. If I were you I would...

Well, let me ask you this...do you really believe the above solutions will help to make you a disciplined trader? How is this approach fundamentally different from what you did last time to help your discipline?! Sounds like you have a problem man, a problem that is going to require a lot...

No the response was for GMST, sorry if that wasn't clear. Was just referencing your response .

Have you tried the visualization technique I recommended? You have a systematic system and you still can't remain disciplined lol. Imagine if you traded with a more discretionary approach, you would be wiped out man! Systematic signals are easy...you have clearly defined variables for...

Here's a trade idea that could be setting up here soon. Will be watching crude oil as a long. Crude has been real nightmare to trade this past couple weeks...it has been building a nice base this past month. Also showed good relative strength as it didn't come close to testing the quarterly...

Have you found there to be a good correlation between volatility and the pivot trader numbers? Any examples? Now I went over this pivot tracker sheet before and couldnt make anything of it....no idea how they are coming up with these numbers lol

As a daytrader the 30 days arent going to help you alot...might be more useful to look at it through another lens ;). Lets say you are trading the energy complex, you could have rolling 5 day to see how they are all stacking up ;),

Joe with the nice call on NXPI...How you like that MFB?

How's trading been going in Crude? I've personally been staying away from it, it has been a spike/chopfest!

Bonds continue their march higher...hitting the 143 handle in ZB here. Although equities have shown a nice pop off of the quarter a down. Bonds have confirmed their quarter aups and continue to defy the equity market and march higher. I honestly don't know what to make of this...large...

Finally looks like the market is firming up a bit here... I have weekly aups in everything besides a few sectors: XRT, FCX, EEM, X, and SMH. The short-term momentum has definately swung to the upside in just about everything...Tough trying to be short the market into the end of the month...

Feels like a reunion in here...everyone coming out of their basements lol

Thanks for your insightful contribution to the thread MFB, welcome back!

Honestly, this makes no sense. Why would you put yourself in a position where you are immediately putting yourself against a wall and fighting in a position of defense. With the actual leveraged amount you are working with you prob need 5 times more than you are trading. Do you not have 10k or...

Here's a good analogy from the interview. Joe talked about how Mark Fisher would always say that trading was alot like driving a taxi. You drive around for the most part looking for normal sized fares but then one out of every 10-20 times you have someone that will step in your taxi and will say...

Here's a great interview with Joe Terranova about his new book. Impressed by this interview I will have to go and get the book. http://martinkronicle.com/2011/12/28/money-2012-buy-high-sell-higher/

No confirmed quarterlies here...the number line comments were strictly pertaining the the short-term(3-5 days). But yea well see, some key levels, also interesting to note FXI is near its Aup for the month. Money flowing into China, yep kinda lol
