No trades tomorrow

Why not. Z has no inherent evil meaning. Just like swastika wasn't evil when Hitler stole it or the rainbow isn't deplorable before the homos stole it

How about every time you break your rule, you take a knife and make a small cut on your wrist. Too many of those you might end up passing out and die. TOo extreme?:sneaky:

Made you look.. Now go back to trading

Yup that's basically all it is in a nut shell. What is my risk of ruin in not being able to recover? I have NO IDEA. In my tests (just 2020-2022), I saw few days of the year where dd was going into double digits. That's like 4-5 reverses Imagine me trading 1 emini like Overnight keep asking me...

That's the big assumption.

I think MT5 counts each side as a trade, buy-sell= 2 trades. Sometimes you can have like buy 4 lots sell 3, 1 lots so that is like 3 trades in their interpretation. MT5 still hasn't updated the new commission rate. They're still stuck on 0.94 rt/contract rate. So they make "adjustments" on...

This is from MT5 report. The numbers are bit different, so to be honest i'm perplexed at how quantanalyzer and mt5 do their calculations

I have high risk to reward. I try to get out of trades ASAP, but when i get stuck in a very ranging market, it's a lot of reverses play, so those losses add up. So I have to raise my target to make it up. Pretty much against what most trading educators consider normal. But it really just boils...

Ok. When I do, you're obligated to invest now..it's a post contract. Don't delete it :sneaky:

Maybe I should start a fund. Broke Ass Capital. Here's our performance so far. Anyone interested in investing in this broke ass fund???

I currently use Quantanalyzer to get daily summary of my gains. max DD is about 9%, so my Calmar ratio is about 2.3 But like I said, the risk I'm taking is based on having significant margin of safety in mind. 5k for every 1 micro, no excuses.

If you go by my gross profit, then sure I'm beating it by few percent, even during crazy rise of the nasdaq. But my commissions is putting a damper on my performance. But cost is relative. You can trade the eminis or become a cme member to reduce your trading costs significantly. For now, I got...

1. I generally know how the algo flows and can debug some things cause I did take C++ back in college. But I can't create a whole algo from scratch. But now I use exclusively QT and they use C#. I probably should learn and do this myself down the road, but it's so cheap right now if you find the...

Compilation of all the things that make up my strategy. A little bit of zest and a touch of backtest. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331076454_Assessing_the_Profitability_of_Timely_Opening_Range_Breakout_on_Index_Futures_Markets https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/212975891.pdf...

No trades again due to stupidity. I think automation is making me dumber. And of course ndx is climbing higher is just pissin me off actually.
