    Took out a loan to transition to full-time trading. 24 years old.

    Day 24 -14.0% Hm… where to begin. Started the day off great, calling accurate reversals and making easy 6% profit. There was a surprise jump that caught me off guard, and while I thought it would be a complete down day today, oil refused to go down. Kept my positions open and went to work...

    Day 23 +5.48% Decent trading throughout the day. Stayed out before release of the oil report. Played a little after the report. Went in for a nice drop but stopped out short just in case... oil goes up because the graph looked a little weird. Dropping some more right now and feeling uneasy...

    Never using stop losses! I used to use trailing stops and am open to using that. Stop losses didn't really work for me when i tried them preciously.

    Hm... Well, I’m tired of repeating a lot of things I previously mentioned in this thread so I won’t go ahead and argue couple missed points in Xela’s post. But one thing everyone got right was taking out loans to trade is ridiculous, and I agree as I thought it was ridiculous when I was...

    Day 22 +6.67% Started the day off with -6% from the start because I placed an overnight position as I thought the chart was due for a reversal. Well, it went higher overnight but wasn't too worried as it still looked as if it was going to do a reversal. Only thing not satisfied today was even...

    Day 21 +12.51% lots of small winners taken for quick profits that became a big winner at end of day. Traded 1 size most of day, except the last profit which 2 size was used. Trying to stay conservative and safe while trading.

    Is not backtesting such a big deal? LOL I've traded since 2010 via real accounts and virtual accounts. The methods I use are something I created that works for me, which is also why I have no problem showing my trading live as i don't think other people will be able to replicate it. While I...

    Day 20 +4.9% Today's charts were really interesting. While all chart periods were leaning towards going bearish, the monthly chart was actually leaning towards bullish. Didn't do a good job managing the size of my positions but was able to make some money today. Very interesting to see which way...

    Day 19 +10.9% Pissed because I didn't make the best judgement this morning, losing potential opportunities and calling the reversal too early, causing me to lose close to 10%. Well, made it all back and some more but exited as I was busy with work, at work. If I stayed in and rode the drop, I...

    Day 18 -19.7%........... Started the day great. No action in the beginning and after the oil report, played off the chart movements and was up 8%. Not satisfied(?) i went in for what I thought was the top of a reversal. Didn't follow personal rules blah blah blah... thought i'd gamble a little...

    Day 17 +10.44% Started the day off great, entering a great short position. Exited way too early and didn't make nearly enough of what I could safely make. Felt confident and maybe that brought in arrogance. During the day tried to play the chart, entering and exiting many times. I think greed...

    Day 16 +2.56% Wowowow... saw the chart pre-market and told myself and my video that today it could really go either way.. should wait until the market opens to see how chart moves and play off of that. Did not listen to myself as always and tried a little trading starting pre-market. Deep in...

    I don't know how to put people on ignore. I just ignore some posts on my thread if I don't seem to find it helpful. I guess you don't see my videos... The resistance play I was referring to was before the drops happened. I think I started calling for a big drop starting two days ago. Today...

    I would ignore you, but underneath your name it says "ET Sponsor"...not sure what that is but it's something. Am I doing something wrong on my posts or are my results the suspicious subject? If i cant refer to my youtube videos, please let me know and i wont.

    Day 15 +6.62% Solid trading again starting at 6:00pm PST. Saw the chart all pointing to downward direction but just wasn't going down so finally exited all my positions. Soon afterwards, monster drop to the downside. I saw a drop happening to 48.80, as mentioned in my video today, but didn't...
