    Jinxu's Dow E-mini Journal 2010

    I'm getting tired of watching movies and playing video games. They are just ways to distract me from trading because I don't have anything to do for most of the day. The system and strategy is already finished, so I don't need to spend much time working on it anymore. What I need is to make...

    I'm down $65 on four trades. Most of the losses were in one trade that didn't work out. The others were around break-even. One of those had a good profit. Commission is gonna eat up another 50% of my loss. I'm down to one bullet left. There was a couple of good setup that I miss because I didn't...

    Okay day. I lost $25 on three trades. I was a little impatient with the first two trades and took high risk entries. Lost $80 on those two. Last trade was good and make most of it back. After that trade, I didn't see any more good setups so I quit. The success today was I was patient enough...

    Exact Science

    Doesn't matter. I figure that out the first time I read one of his document. If you're not smart enough to figure that out eventually, then you may not be smart enough to figure out how to beat the market. Newbies will lose money either way. Experience is when you know and can recognize...

    Trader Myers-Briggs Personality Type

    Bump I took this test a long time ago and did a some research into it back then. I'm surprised by the results of the poll. NT's should only make up 10% of the population, but this poll shows they make up over 60% of the members on ET. I originally thought the personality types distribution...

    how to meet monthly expense while growing trading capital?

    Sure, I don't see any problems with your plan. Other things you may want to consider are: 1) Reduce your monthly expenses as much as possible so that it won't eat up a lot of your profit. Just think of it as operational expenses. 2) If your account is small, you need to aim for the big...

    No trades today. Still on vacation. Just some sim and testing with tfs. The results today was pretty good, but still need to practice some more. One of the factor that cause me to blow out in the past was my impatient need to get into a trade as soon as I can after waking up. This flaw more...

    Nothing worse than when you can only blame yourself

    That's not so bad. You got a consistent record over the last two months. $1200 is easily recoverable if you continue that. I got a system and there are two possible paths I can take with it: 1) I can scalp multiple small profits that can add up or 2) I can try to aim for big moves There...

    I gave up the "grail" yet he failed.

    What is this "personal low" that everyone keeps talking about? What are ways that a trader get to this "low"? How do you know if you reached it? Why do you need to reach a low before you can become successful? *confused*

    Just some practicing today using Time Factor Strategy. I'm up $80 on two trades. Both were successful and both were in and out in 1 or 2 min. First trade was a small profit that could've became a loss. But with tfs, was able to identified price was about to go against my trade and got out on...

    Not really. I'm just trying to piss him off and expressing how much I don't really care for his opinion. I'm surprised you didn't catch that. I was just gonna ignored his post, but then I saw the 270 under his name.

    Yes, I just forgot about it. I was planning on using the volatility from the news release to push the account up but it backfired. I couldn't focus on the chart and the ABV at the same time was why I made that mistake. When I got a chance to look at the chart after my order went through, the...
