I'm not sure I could give you any advice, but would you mind describing exactly what you did (trades&time)? Looks to me that if you would have followed your rules +-3 pts, you would have made a bunch of money. Also whats the time for the #2 (@837) skirt? /JT

Hi dgoetz, I can see your one :cool: :cool: dude. Plenty of nice trades. I like your "contrarian" style. unfortunately I have been "murdered" a couple of times trying to do this (check my T3 today). Nice tip to check market depth though. I will continue analyze your trades tomorrow (don't...

Tech Analysis: I wish I had a job at McD. At least I wouldn't have lost money today. "the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results" - I must be borderline insane! nkhoi: Thanks! Please elaborate! Mr Subliminal & Quah: Thanks for the...

This is my 14:th day trading the 'minis. It's a lot of work for minimum wage. As usual I took a hit during the later part of my trading day (@ 3.15pm and 3.26pm). It seems that trading during this time of day becomes very choppy. If movement during the trading day is chaos like, it becomes...

Perhaps you could enlighten me about "what actually consistently works"? Also you can add this to your list: 5. Doesn't care about advice like "READ some books first" :) /JT

Hi x-or, Thank you for the time to go thorough some (all) of my trades and your advice. This is by far the best reply to my journal to date. 1. Hard stops. I reviewed my trading from friday, and noticed that if I would have used a 1.0 or 1.5 pts stop loss, I would have been better off...

Hi aphie, Looking forward to your journal. I wish you all the best with your trading. If you don't mind me asking, how large of an account will you start with, and how will you be trading (style/plan)? /JT

Scalper? I'm not sure yet, but I think that things are evolving in that direction for me. At the moment I'm not really thinking about how many trades I do, as long as I got a good "feeling", and are in sync with the market. /JT

Nice site @ daytraderplaza. I wish I could understand Dutch. "Donderdag 12 september is roll-over dag voor de futures. " that I understood. I use IB. I can't recall that they sent me any info. /JT

X-or, I'm sorry I was wrong. I don´t look at market depth only present size. Much like you do. Yesterday I even turned of my chart monitor most of the time, and only looked at the chart a few number of times. I used to write down my entry price on a piece of paper so I wouldn't forget it...

High TA, Thanks for your comments. Could you please elaborate on the reward:risk ration ("at least 2:1 preferably 3:1"). What does this mean, and how could it be applied in practice? Thanks. /JT
