PS, traded afternoon and got to -100 by clearing head and getting back to basics.

Wrong attachment last file (no downtrendlines).

Very nice play. Well today was again my worst day in 2 weeks. -350 for the day. Biggest dayis still +900 so i still know im doing ok as far as statistics go. Honestly think that my time frame with 333 vol is good for really fast moving markets but in markets like today I just get...

Anyone use mb data feed with Ninja trader? I cant seem to get past price data. I have to run the days in order to store the data and I cant seem to find a way around this. As such, I didn't even see that big triangle forming that anek posted because I started out trading es and dont have...

You waited for confirmation as always? :D By the way... since i've read your thread and started trading futures (sim) I havn't had a down day in 2 weeks (the first week I was really off by myself but the second week I got a lot of confidence from the journal to be able to execute the plan)...

Gotcha. Just wondering. That's not really what I should be focusing on right now anyways and probably the same for most people in the journal. As always, thanks for encouraging (and not punishing) curiosity.

Ok... you knew this was coming haha. Care to expand on the last comment?

But... there is a way to trade them as after all it is a trend, just on a smaller time frame. Is this smaller time frame just not worth the points per click for you?

Thanks for the support guys. I am always really harsh on myself, though. I feel that I should have broke positive but it was my discipline that forced me into crappy trades. Anek... this ones for you. Today I had some good trades somewhere in the middle of the day I was up around 200...

Absolutetly horrible performance by me today. Ended up just negative with commissions. Way overtrading. I knew I shouldnt have traded today because of other stuff on my mind... o well.

Can I make a suggestion to anyone struggling to time their entries. When you see a weak candlestick, go into a lower time frame and see if a wedge or trend line or something similar is being broken. Enter appropriately... this will offer good r/w and a better entry if you are good at it.

Took a few trades on ER2. Just experimenting.. Total PnL for day... + ~350 EDIT: Caught EOD rally. Up to 500 for the day. Out to school. Broke lots of rules, but still did really well today. Need to stay away from breakouts and only play high reward/low risk plays.

Why don't you experiment until you find setups that meet your style? I see no reason to use a single one size fits all setup... someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Some of my trades you cant see as I was taking them off of trendline breaks and strong candles on smaller time frame. Not my best day... Ran 2 winners really nice for like 120. Then lost a few 3 50 dollar trades a pop so barely positive for today if any. PnL is I believe 90. Not bad, but...

Readable on my end. Hmm... did I screw something up and not know about it...

Try zooming up. The images are actually really high resolution so you should be able to get them as big as possible.

And another...

Will post tomorrow's trading... have been doing it on my own just havn't had time to post with midterms. In the spirit of sharing... here is my weekend research. Good luck all.

Just want to say I've read the entire thread and have been trading this way for several days now. Not the point of my response though... Cx... huge improvement since your posts in the beginning. Great job. Trendline breaks mean new trends all the time and it comes in all timeframes and...
