It´s Imbel FAL (licensed Brasil made FN FAL). Why do you guys feel the need to convince me to change my approach? I don't get it. So I will try to explain for the last time. There is nothing wrong with my trading approach. In fact, it makes much more sense than most of KISS approaches I have...

wrbtrader: thanx, but I don't think you see the whole picture here. I am writing my journal with exactly the info I need to have. I am recording my trading and while I take my trades I am commenting them. Don't fall in the analytics bias -more information is better. It is not. Sooner or later...

I used to do it, but it became too complicated and time consuming. I keep my trading journal where I describe my trades more in detail (as you could see). I don´t really do trades outside my trading plan. They are all according to the plan, but some are more aggressive than the others. It is...

We agree to disagree then :)

Weekly results: 5th week of 2015 This week’s results scream at me ”NOT READY YET”. Even when I ended up in positive numbers it is not that easy and effortless trading I used to have when I was achieving the best results. Partly because the markets are just coming back to normal, but mostly...

No offense, but I find it entertaining how people think their way is the best, easiest etc. If you didn´t read the Market Wizards, I strongly suggest you do. The book is full of interviews with the best traders in the world (at that time) and they all contradict each other, yet they all profit...

30.1.2015 results I traded too much again. I had couple of very nice entries but altogether my performance was very mediocre. T1 Long in NQ. Valid try. I killed the positon after the market showed weakness to climb. +4 T2 Another long in NQ. This time too aggressive. -8 T3 I saw the quick...

I did like 6 times in the past already. But I am too stuborn and I like trading too much to give it up definately. I finally see light at the end of the tunel now. But I guess there are just two possible outcomes for me - I either make it or I'll die trying :)

Look how nice did YM react to my preplanned resistance levels ;)

29.1.2015 trading results I was done very quickly today. It took me just 40min to reach my PDP (perfect daily profit). I saw another good opportunities, but when I reach PDP so fast and effortless I usually stop trading for that day because I don’t want to spoil it. T1 I saw nice situation...

I am not very satisfied with yesterday's performance. I was very trigger happy. But the last one was very nice trade. Thank you.

With this trade I reached my perfect daily profit 80-120 USD/1 contract and according to my money management rules I stopped trading. Results:

28.1.2015 trading results Today is FOMC in the evening (afternoon US time), so I expected the markets to be lazy and move slowly. That is why I was trying to take some trades as soon as possible after opening with at least some volatility. As the markets unfolded however, we could see quite...

It's the basic volume profile study in Sierra Chart.

27.1.2015 trading results Again extremely tough markets. Most of the features of my trading strategy simply didn’t work today. Markets move in very strange way – there are lot of jumps back and forth. There is basically no regular rotation anymore, just big jumps. Because of this I was...

27.1. pre market preparation NQ Nasdaq moved down from yesterday´s trading range. It strikes me as if NQ is seeking for bottom border for consolidation. 4200 price level could be a good candidate for it. My guess is that the break in premarket was a false one and we will see NQ return to...

Cannot argue with that :)

$41.74 already after comms. This is not a good day for me. Good day is usually 2-4 trades, 75-100% win ratio, $80-120 after comms.

Yes, I actually trade just the morning session. I feel that my concentration level drops significantly after 2-3 hours of watching markets. So, I trade just first 2 - 2,5 hours after opening.

26.1.2015 trading results Markets have been nervous from the beginning as I expected and wrote in my pre market preparation. I also wrote: ”I also prefer long trades in DJ from preplanned zones. 17500 looks promising (besides other things it is also nice round number)”. And look how nicely Dow...
