    if there is a god, we have no idea what it is. one thing's for sure, however, nothing in the bible had anything to do with our creation.

    for datek customers who got annoyed today

    what are your trading stats?

    yes, i do keep track of more information than what i posted, but i didn't feel like copying everything. you're right, stats are also good so that you can look back and analyze your winning trades, as well as your losing trades. as for keeping track of where the futures were, etc. i actually...

    what are your trading stats?

    first of all, i would say to anyone who doesn't keep detailed trading records, you're probably not serious about trading! i used to not keep records, but now i do. it will also help when tax time comes around. anyway, here's some of mine: average win: 6.27% average loss: 2.85% win rate...
