Ok going forward this week, a few things that I will focus on: -Focus on trading stocks in play: I need to take full advantage of my briefing subscription, it is invaluable in this regard. I will trade ETF's etc, if there is major volatility and the macro market is moving everything...

GOLD and TLT

Ok so just going to take a look at the longer term picture in the various larger markets. ES: Looks like equities are range bound for now. Looks like a coiling type pattern...volume is mixed as is price action. Gold: I was taking a look at the longer-term picture and gold looks to be...

Nice, good to hear that you will be getting out there and doing work! I know that you'll do great!

Thanks, and I have considered trading only one instrument. I am surrounded by other traders who are trading stocks, etf's... stuff that is in play and can move. I guess the reason I am trading a larger variety of instruments is because I have been taking advice from some of the traders at my...

thanks for the feedback. However I would like to point out that my prior post was more for helping me articulate my approach than to be a check-off list. I don't look for all of these things and mark them off and then take the trade. Of course not, you have to be quick to catch any moves...

Thanks bro...how's everything on your end?

Some good examples of example trades in the SPY today. I am usually trading stocks in the daytime, but there wasn't alot of stuff in play today and the macro market was basically moving everything after the bernank's speech! I traded the SPY because of this!

So been away from this journal for a while. I am back, because I feel like articulating my thoughts on here and having a written form of my trading in some form will greatly help me! I've definitely noticed that one can make alot of the same mistakes over and over again and not know about it...

Did you end up taking any positions in the equity markets earlier this month? Also, any opinion going forward?

LOL...the more you work towards getting one the others getting away. Story of my life lmao, sacrafice Kurt! Sacrafice!

Hey, I do think it is time for an update. Crazy times tho right...Haven't ever traded in this type of volatility. Looks like S&P has officially downgraded the US credit rating...I think some of this volatility is here to stay! I have to say that I have had a difficult time adjusting to the...

A few possibilities...you have a natural ability to read markets and trade them. Or you just got lucky and the first 10 days you traded happened to fit with whatever way you were trading! FYI...when I first papertraded NG, ZW, ZC, ZS futures I doubled my demo account in the first 2 weeks. I...

Thanks for the suggestion...I'll do this tommorow. On the open I usually have a watchlist of stocks that are in play and I judge can have a decent move. I'll just have to group them between good news and bad news...shouldn't be too hard! BTW...your comment that content/stock selection is...

You said that you like to trade intraday trends ElecEquity? I have been doing something similar after the initial open. Just screening strong/weak stocks throughout the day with 1.5-2 relative volume, and that are up/down and have good risk reward(not down/up alot).Along with the above approach...

My man...do you get a kick out of playing the know-it-all. You have given little tid-bits throughout this thread, but they are overshadowed by crap like the above post. Any type of trading is hard. In order to consistently perform at a top level in this game is HARD. only ~5% of traders make...

LOL...this eager beaver salutes you Kurt! ;)
