LOL...Thats as obtuse as one gets :) Maybe you can use a little bit more of keyboard when you have some time - probably after mkt hrs !

Yes, ofcourse it is very relevant. I think it will be extremely hard for anyone to beat your performance! Imo, you will see yourself in the right tail.

Thanks Hatetherisk, So, you make roughly 300 pips in fx per month, I will say around 3500 pips per year. Correct ? But can you clarify how many points do you make in gold and oil ? Also, for how long you have been trading. This is all the info that is required. Thanks. EDIT: I...

Yes, that is true. But irrespective of the fact whether you are a 10yr trader or a 3yr trader, knowing where you are on the bell curve is a good thing to know. Am sure it can only have a positive influence - in terms of motivating oneself to become more consistent/profitable. Volente - I...

Someone sent me a PM about my language. I apologize I wasn't clear. I do not wish to know the total points you made for the year 'cumulative for all' the contracts that you have been trading. Rather, I am asking you to please report how many points did you make for 1 ES contract in a year or...

Josh, I gather that earlier you used to trade CL and from what people have written, you were seemingly very good at it. Why did you move to ES then ? Also, what are the differences between CL and ES in your experience. Thanks for your thoughts.

Lets collect some stats here - with the aim that it will help everyone benchmark their performance against the best and to see where they fall on the bell curve. Irrespective of your account size/prop leverage available to you, please report how many points do you make on average per year in...

yes 30 minutes for a failure to occur, otherwise probability goes down.

Agree with most of what people have said in this thread, with one important difference - as Handle123 pointed out. Carefully chosen swing trades (duration from 2days-2 months or even longer), offer 5:1, or even 10:1 or rarely even 20:1 reward:risk in trader's favor. The trick is to catch a...

ES had broken 1305 support which was a big support. Yesterday, ES witnessed selloff from 1317 on huge volume to 1305 but couldn't break it. So, I am going bearish on all risk assets and re-establishing short AUD position (around 100 pips higher than where I had closed my shorts) and shorting ES...

concur with you. Seems like we are going to revisit 1288 or even 1282, which was a big support few days ago. And not too happy with myself :( I sold 1312.5 with a stop at 1314.5 yesterday and was mentally ready to keep the position overnight, but screwed up when price went back to 1312.25 and...

Why is CL a better contract to trade ? Can you elaborate please. Thanks a lot.

Thank you sir.

Mav I m hoping you can respond to my PM whenever you get a sec. Hope you didn't miss it in all the PMs that you get :) Thanks a lot.

Lucias, you are wrong in your assumption that you need 10s of millions in real capital trading to get noticed. If you have a 100k real account and trade it for 1 year, and say return 100% on it with 10+ months out of 12 positive, and 42+ weeks out of 52 positive, you will get backing...

Actually, I think I am going to start work with stocks data from mid-February. The idea of trading 30-100 stocks per day in a systematic fashion sounds very attractive to me, because this way you get benefit of a smoother equity curve due to diversification and less market risk, which is harder...

Thanks gariki for your suggestion. I have never traded stocks, and have 0 screentime with stocks. So, I have no idea if my fx strategies will move to stocks world. However, developing strategies for sometime now, I have a fairly good handle on the approach to develop strategies. So, I am pretty...

Flat for the day. Done for the day. Lost 100$ for the day on ES. IMO, bid in euro could prop up ES to 1325 by tomorrow, and probably once we touch 1325 or maybe even 1340, we will see a change in fortune and bears will be in control of the market.

Yes, I have placed it, I am short again from 1311.75. Tight stop on this one. Plan to close this at eod.
