Crazy man Trading with Kelly

My worthless impression is that focus should be more on flawless execution of a system instead of on results.

Today didnt make any trades, missed the long in ES testing 1132 since it looked like there was more volume on the selling side.

Damn, Im in such a hurry to make money like all the other people on ET I start misspelling things... Well hope the journal will continue better than it started once I am ready to resume it.

In this journal I will document my path to trading rices. I trade ES based on priceaction and volume. Actually, I just had a big aha moment. Before I can execute my system flawlessly on replay it is no use to waste 6h/day watching price. So I will resume the journal in a while.

Whats the hassle? Lots of companies providing all-inclusive offshore incorporation services. Establish an offshore trading company and keep most of the profits there until much later..

Since CFD's is quite unregulated most brokers take the opposite trades of their retail clients and rip them off in various ways. In straight bucketshop fashion. The high leverage on them just makes the whole thing easier.

Definitely interested. Also interesting would be a simple web-txt page with the futures quotes to use on a phone to check in every now and then.

Hi, Thanks to everyone for the advice. Most suitable for me currently looks a combination of Bones down-to-earth approach and fixed fraction. That would allow for good optimization but still benefit from the simplicity of bones approach with managing the ups and downs of performance and...

I trade futures and have trouble determining a good model for position sizing. I have read quite a lot on the subject and ran lots of simulations and am aware of the theory in the field. Kelly, Monte Carlo simulations etc. My intention is to swing for the hills like neke. When I am...

cfd is in the same class as retail forex, a field where the bucketshops scam the noobs.

When crossing borders passport is needed.

Do you have it? Maybe not sheep this time but donkeys.

Could someone who got the files in time before they were taken down share them over PM?

Thanks! yeah actually there is a difference between happy and at peace with oneself although both are positive feelings.

I have been making a lot of impulsive trades, it has been for many months the biggest negative force on my PnL. I think I have discovered a reason and cure for this. I have had lots of expectations and been very impatient to make money after all the time and effort I have put into this. This...

Hmmm... reduced size just a little and problems went away. Could suddenly look detached and analyze for 1h on the charts. Continuing research, I will solve this somehow.

Still thinking more about this. Its like I have available 1 hour worth of chart-staring life per day. More than that and I start losing control. One scenario is that I get so fixated on the current situation that I dont think ahead and then something unexpected happens and I have an...

Thanks for all the good replys Thursday made one impulsive exit and one impulsive trade. First trade of the day was according to plan, bought support in uptrend. Stayed in control, didnt get sucked in before it reached my marked support. Second trade shorted the resistance at 1010...

Ya being more "cynical" towards setups seems to be one solution. Focusing on really letting every setup prove itself, as in poker letting every hand prove itself to not be folded. Strangely this doesnt work for me because after staring at the chart for 20min I lose every perspective and...
