How hot is your wife?

Lost $40 on one trade. Could've been less but hesitated on my stop again. Didn't want to make any other trades afterward. Got distracted with youtube and missed some good setups. Idk. Too focus on trading to really care anymore. I did some investigation and according to these sites, 27 is...

Somehow I knew you were likely to say this. This is my 127th post on ET btw.

Today was a tough day. Had to wait over an hour for my trades to start working. I'm up $85 on three trades. Lost $50 on the first two trades. Entries weren't ideal but exit rules were obeyed. Last trade was a big winner. But the entry wasn't perfect. Had to stomach a $50 draw-down just to...

How old are you? This is your chance to become a player.

Milestone day. Account is over $1000. Up $40 on one trade. Had a good entry but exited too soon. Didn't get another good setup that I wanted to take. Still being cautious with entries. Once I can become more confident with taking risks I can start aiming for the bigger gains.

The problem with mechanical systems is that it's trying to linearize a market that is dynamic. I would have to constantly modify the codes as the market environment changes. There's too many if and what ifs statements to make it consistently profitable over the long term. I don't think it's...

It's nice to be on the winning side again, but today could've been better. I'm up $45 on one trade. Had an initial limit order to buy that didn't get filled. Made the entry a little bit later and had a quick $100+ in profits but missed the exit and had to settle. I will post a chart of the...

Sep 09, 2010 Dow Jones up 0.27 percent end of day. What does it all mean? :confused: :eek: Yep, mornings are the worst for me. I don't have a PS3. I had to give that up so I could save money to trade.

The number 27 is starting to appear more frequently. I started noticing it since June of this year. But back then it was appearing occasionally in a strange places. The significance of the number to me is that I was born on July 27. I have been documenting them for the past few weeks. Here...

Here is the chart of my last trade today:

Good day. Starting this account at $800 even. Up $145 on two trades. First trade loss $60 but the entry/exit was based on rules. Second trade was the big winner that made it all back and then some. I will post a chart of the last trade in a little bit. You're right. I have been under a lot...

Yes, that's correct.

Today was another tough lesson. Lost $400 today on three trades. I tried to trade right after waking up while still a little bit groggy. Was a little too impatient with entering. The first trade was a lost. The second trade was a small lost, but the expected direction begin immediately after...

Counterclockwise (left brain dominant) 10 38.46% Clockwise (right brain dominant) 16 61.54% Total: 26 votes 100% Nice. We're getting close to the Fibonacci 62/38 ratio.

New account starting at $760. Up $65 on two trades. First trade was a short but entry wasn't ideal, so exited with a small profit. Second trade was a long after the open. Was hoping for a strong rally that didn't materialize. Exited based on rules with a decent profit. Good thing as the...

My confidence isn't shot. The system was able to identify where the market was going which reinforces that it works. The error today was with timing. With a small account that needs tight stops, accurate timing is important. And timing is much more difficult then predicting market direction...
