Holy smokes. Crappy trading in missing entries. I've trained myself pretty well not to chase moves. I realized today that when i'm seeing a quick, big "thrust' bar then i wait to see if it retraces. I hesitate thinking don't chase this one bar. But context is important and i should have...

Thanks BMW ! I downloaded the program Hopefully i did it right

thanks. i just realized i wasn't clear in my question. how do I save the screen shot of my trade summary so i can post it here (or my journal) thanks again. And green is good. nice day !

Guys, How do you get the Trade Summary screen shot ? I print to file then can't find it and same with prntscrn. thanks

no problems here. NT7 64 bit zen fire data. loads charts very quickly when i log on. if you didn't have that problem before switching to the new dec contract then contact tech support. you might have a bad file

i believe you asked this before and were looking for 'iterative process' as the answer. The repeated process of analysis. Study, man, study ! Then again maybe i was just hallucinating :)

Cool. :cool: Thanks again.

Awesome ! Thanks very much. I appreciate your time and advice ! Is there some entry trigger on that first trade or just context of price action and location of S/R ? If the latter then i see it. I like the tip on triple tops/bottoms should hold. Thanks again.

Thanks HtR ! I'm actually not finding trading very stressful anymore. But i get your point and am trying to pick just the best trades.

actually that long 2nd trade shown probably wasn't the best idea going into resistance.

5 trades. -.50 pt Still making notes for myself and trying to learn what i'm doing. If anything I know this: I will not blow up. It's just a matter of time before i start booking consistent profits. In the past i haven't cared much for daily/weekly profit goals but prefer 'process'...

Thanks Snow, Exits are my weakness right now which are based on my read of PA. First trade i thought a target would be at the 7:15 high. Exiting at the first resistance makes sense but i was still expecting the entry near support to hold. Trying to give the trade a little time to work...

Good entries but volatility ie fast reversals is not working in my favor today. OpEx today. first trade MFE +3.75 that reversed quickly. I should have acted and exit with something. Instead -1.75 Next trade BE Did i mention our other dog had knee surgery ? Back to vet today for 1...

Winner ! 1 Trade + .75 pts .yep that's right, 3/4 a point. I'm rich, i'm rich, i'm a wealthy miser.

This going to do something here or just chop for a bit longer? I'm thinking chop.

no trades today. didn't have time for the markets

-5.75 pts. I'll just say that despite the negative numbers it wasn't as bad as it appears. At least i'm mostly trading in the right direction, early a few times today, and i'm not hesitating to re-enter a trade after the first time didn't work. Had MFE of +8.5 on one trade but exited...

trying to add a little humor. my apologies if it offended. agree learn more from the losers. You'd think i'd have my PHD by now. good chance close below 2200, imo

No one wants to see my losing trades. When i get as good as you guys ( i'm serious) i'll post here. Until then feel free to stop by my journal as I slowly find my way.

Can we abbreviate and just call you Opie ? http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/343opie-taylor-lrg.png
