Stopping now as market is going nowhere. Had 2 good trades, 2 bad trades, and one terribly missed trade due to order cancalation 1) Shouldn't have traded, wasn't enough space -4.25 2) Good trade +4.75 3) Was too encourged by the big red bar so jumped at first opprtunity, again, should have...

Don't get to caught up in the SAR, it is not my strategy, nor it will be, was just a day with 2 of these trades, doesn't usually happen

I want to thank everyone in this thread so far for the repsecting and highly educational posts. Hope we can continue this way. Didn't trade friday (can't trade on fridays) and yesterday wasn't able to trade (very sick) My 2 cents (as a complete beginner) on the db scott discussion . Regading...

Didnt trade yesterday (monday) An awaful lot of good ideas and insights. Thanks! This is great

I actually considered this time stops idea and happy to see it does work will backtest it. In case you're out because of time, is there's a limit of time before you can re-enter a trade in the same direction or does it depends purly on the entry signals?

I agree this is not ildeal to have four charts. However I feel the four charts do represent more or less the same but give me a better prespective of where to place me entry. I do agree how ever the using 1 max 2 is more ideal. Nore taken about the stop and reverse, I think in general it comes...

Seriousely now, no one asked to jump into this thread. you're more then wolcome to leave.

Hello all, After almost a year of break I'm back to the game, trying to trade NQ. I've been trading for the past 2 month (30 trading days overall). And currently down -888$. This was mostly due to 3 days when I broke my rules entirely and lost 1120$ Overall these are my stats so far: Best...

If you can provide some insights on the trades in the general context of your post, I'd be very happy.

OK some updates, Last 2 days of january manage to loss what profit left from that month, so ended slightly negative (-16$) First 2 days this week, good days (+40$ each), short oens (only 1 trade) Would like to have inputs on this day, frstrated that I actually manage to lose money in...

RN, Thanks for your care, I still didn't get back to trading due to some changes in my life that avoid me from trading for the coming weeks (but might actually enable me to trade nuch more in the coming months) I'll be posting if I trade, but it might not by on a daily basis as it was so far.

Accidently posted the blotter before the last trade, don't have time to fix it. Real P/L is -43$

Still sick, bad day. Almost fnished it at BE but then decided to take another trade, bad choice... Trade 1 - Short on PB, not sure about it but mde it anyway Trade 2 - Revrsed on a long entry signal (a bit too late because of hesitation), good exit. Trade 3 - Entry on at 2 min pullback...

Very sick, Tried to trade but missed two entries so decided to stop. Hope to get back to it tommorow.

Good day, could have been better Trade 1 - Classic, target was supposed to be 3 cents higher but was afraid of resistence at .15 Trade 2 - Missed the first entry becuase I though the bear before enrty bar was too strong, got a good second entry, but exit way too early after seeing the...

Seems like you're doing a pretty good job in your trading, maybe a good opprtunity to switch proffession :)

Must thank RN for this day... Was able to exit 2 trades when I saw they're not working so was able to end up positive with only 1 winning trade. just kept saying to myself, "regrets I can live with, big losers, I can't..." :) Trade 1 - Long entry for potential BO. after 3 bars of hitting the...

Could have been a much better day... Trade 1 - Good trade (exit a bit too early) Trade 2 - Entred too early because I missed 2 trades, then added at my stop by accident (sold instead of buy), didn't exit immdieatly because I saw we're approaching the SL, and a short entry might be coming...

Thanks RN Yes I would like you to have a look on trade 4 as well. You say that I need to leave the trade as soon as its not "working" anymore, I'd like to know what your line of though to determine the trade doesn't work, for example when would you exit the first rade I made (assuming...

A negative day, which could have been much worse... Trade 1 - Valid trade, got whipsawed (do you guys have any advice on this one?) Trade 2 - Good trade, acording to plan Trade 3 - Revenge trading because of a missed a good trade 5 minutes earlier, not a good setup... Trade 4 - A bit...
