An old man walks into a bar, sits down, and starts crying. The kindly bartender approaches and asks, “What’s wrong?” The old man looks at the bartender through teary eyes and between sobs responds, “I married a beautiful woman two days ago. She’s a natural blonde, twenty-five...

nkhoi, I understand, no problemo. But now that you are here, do you have any comments on the trading journal? (you didn't think I'd let you go just like that, did you? :) )

nkhoi, Feels weird to see a quote that sort of has your name but you never remember saying it... Where did you get that one? it is really attributed to me? what was I saying? who's Jack? What again are the msn groups? did this quote come from another board? Please explain - TIA :)

Soesman, Yes, I do use trailing stops, at least in theory. In my first post here last Monday I referred to those. I assign the amount of the initial stoploss based on the chart and also a 5% number that I want to try and respect (not to risk more than, if possible.) After the partial exit has...

Ken, This journal is dedicated to my stock (swing) trading. I do trade the futures, but not here. If you really want to ask me a futures question, send me a PM.

I just heard a quote that I had heard before, but it now made new sense to me in terms of trading and taking risk, always being exposed to the ups and downs of the market: "A ship is safer in the harbor, but that's not what ships were built for." Maybe it's because, as I grow older, more...

slowtrend, I do follow my trades intraday, using the 15, 30 and 60 min charts and one of my trading tools. But I don't intervene much,especially during the first day, unless I see a sizable move that appears to be unsustainable (in which case I exit and prepare to go back to the well next...

Try www.kwikpop.com I'm not selling it, just a user. There have been a couple of evaluations on ET - search and ye shall find... :)

howellpar, Excellent joke! I think I know this guy, he lives down the block :)

mdl, I sympathize with what you are saying, and cannot really claim that all my trades were successful, but Don actually devotes a part of the training to explaining how one can use multiple timeframes (e.g., his 3 and 13 min charts, etc) to be able to distinguish good opportunities from bad...

Thanks saico, Just shorted NT at $7.83, risk ~.40, hoping that the stock will close the recent gap up...

Ok, so far so good, the positions I initiated yesterday are doing fairly well. Of course, the account had other established positions as well, but they are not shown or discussed here. Gradually, as the pre-existing positions are phased out, this journal will be showing the full picture of...

No, but I've been there many times, on vacation. I've seen practically everything east of Toronto, love the northern part of Nova Scotia the best. I live in North Western New Jersey... beautiful place here too. :)

TMT, Excellent results, bravo! How about your methodology?

I decided to post my trades here, because sometimes I let a lot of time go by without taking a second look to see where I've been and how I got here and what lessons I've learned. Certainly, it would be great if/when some questions or feedback are posted in this thread and some decent and...

ctrader, OK, I checked it out and it looked interesting. So, I'm on the trial - and I did tell them you referred me to them - will follow your posts here and also let you know how I like the service. Are you in Canada or the US or? Your handle, ctrader, does look like "Canadian Trader"...
