This journal started off with some well stated goals. I like how Neke did that. I think that a focus on break-even is never good though.
But, it would be good to know what happened in the meantime to his stated goals. A 13% goal to break even was very modest. It seems there was some disconnect with the stated goals and the way the trading was carried out.
I'm not going to offer advice to Neke. But, this is a good reminder for me to monitor my goals and my performance to ensure they are aligned.
