Wanna hear something miraculous??? I still not crushed by the incident. I may be a little beat but I'll get back up. Losing a few hundreds or thousand to develop my system was worth it. I consider it as the initial loss with an investment. I'm fortunate that I was smart enough not to use a...

Here's the chart:

I swear I think I'm being cursed. I blew up with a $305 loss on two trades. I initially took a short position but didn't worked out, but was prepared to get out with a $45 loss. Then for some reason I went long at a price area I identified earlier as a good place to short. It turns out I...

The time factor strategy will be the edge right now. There's no guarantee of anything. What matters is how well I can use it in live trading.

No trades today. No 27 in the news again: Mortgage rates fall to decades-low of 4.27 pct. Average rate for 30-year mortgages falls to low of 4.27 percent; 15-year lowest in 20 years http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Mortgage-rates-fall-to-apf-2602207434.html

LOL. I hope you're kidding. My broker set it at $5 rt if I'm using $500 day margin. I don't know why. He could be cheating me out of 0.02 cent, but I don't really care. Commission is $10 rt with $300 day margin.

You're an idiot. See here: http://www.globalfutures.com/accounts/300dtm.asp "$300 day trading margins for the E-Mini S&P, E-Mini NASDAQ, and the Mini ($5) Dow Jones."

Up $60 on one trade. Going on a one trade per day challenge.

Sorry. Didn't take one. You're gonna have to use your imagination. :) I have. Development on the system and strategy are essentially finish. Like I said elements of it were designed for a small account size. Money that can quickly and easily be raised.

Final Blowout. Down $390 on four trades. Again, I let one bad bad turned into a disaster by not obeying my sell rules. I think I've notice a pattern in my destructive behavior. Each day the first one or two trades are usually good. It's when I get to a trade that was bad or one that had a...

Bad day. I'm up only $55 on four trades. I had multiple trades with profits from $100 to $200 each. But I wanted to aim for a big trend and let them dwindled down to $50 and b/e. I didn't take profits when I knew I should have. Could have been a really good day if I had. Mornings are still...

Wow. Ouch. I just wasted $30 on a trading book that I was hoping would gives some fresh new ideas but turns out to be worthless.

Crazy Day. I almost blew up this new account. I'm up $65 on ten trades. I made some bad trades and lost around $150 during pre-market hours. At that point I was $50 (or 10pts) away from being wiped out. There was one trade that was good but had a tight stop that got hit at the exact low...

Bad day. I blew up. I lost $405 on three trades. Took high risk setups and didn't obey my sell rules and it hurts me today. Last trade had a chance to breakeven for the day and didn't take it. Instead letted all the profit evaporated and then more. Traded too much based on what I hoped the...

Okay day. I'm just up $50 on one trade. It was during pre-market. I sleep a lot last night and couldn't become mentally alert by the open so I stayed out. It's b/c my source of confidence comes from something that goes deeper than other people's opinion. In this business if you don't have...

Bad day. I blew my account up again with a major loss. I don't even feel like writing an analysis. If you want to see how much I lost, see the attached p/l below. :( It adds up to 27. I can't even tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

I thought a lot of people on ET gives good advice since that's what I been told multiple times??? :confused:

Not entirely true. There's a difference between making a blind guess and making an educated guess (assumption).

Rough day. What is it with the 27th of each month that gives me bad luck? I'm down $265 (270?) on fifteen trades. I had a $70 profit with the first trade and should've follow my instinct and left for the day at that. Wasn't very disciplined today. Had a lot of trades that got stopped out that...
