Damir's Trading Journal

the market has a say. :) in june there were some violent spikes. in addition, there has been a refinement of the scaling-in, which should help during the next round of volatility. wish i could avoid all losses, all the time, but i haven't yet found a way.

still waiting for YM 9350 to cover the outstanding shorts.

As your losers in these two months were inproportionally higher values (up to few times) than the winners' values, not sure this is a direction to look at for improving profits. Just a thought! :)

I don't think avoiding all the losses is feasible and a worthwhile trade-off.

Why don't you attach a simple chart (prices only, without anything else, not even any lines) for the day or month, so that a visitor (particularly newbies including myself) to your this wonderful thread can easily study and learn from it for your great efforts. :)

PS: Not everyone is trading YM daily.
 
here's something to learn at my expense: dumping the final scale-in portion makes no sense if you're keeping the rest around since what you are dumping is generally the best "timed" entry. should not have dumped the short from 9393 before the close, i was sized just fine to ride a potential ramp the other way today.

there really is no point in my posting a chart, anybody can go to bigcharts.com or stockcharts.com and pull one up for themselves. if you would like to stick one in though, please feel free! :)
