empee's blow-out journal

i stopped out on EUR/USD for -6 pips (1 contract). I shorted oil at the open with a roughly .30 cent stop, looking for a opening range breakdown with hopefully follow thru we'll see.

Still holding 3 contract of gold short.
 
i stopped out of gold breakeven.

Got chopped for around -10 pts on YM yesterday.

Today entered ym at 11217, stop is breakeven.

Currently account is around $14,100.

approx 22% drawdown, although about 1/2 of that was because I was testing some new strats in this account. I have stopped doing that so its more accurate.

Its hard to say which way the markets are going right now, potentially consolidations which is where I can get chopped up.

I am looking for a light volume squeeze to near the previosu highs in the dow, but will adjust as I see price action if I dont get stopped. These are the kind of games see we see in summer light volume markets.


target would be around 500 ym pts ideally.
 
i stopped out on the pullback before it exploded, hit me within 2 ticks :(

All cash now. A bit more than $14k left.
 
went long ym 11120, 7 pt stop, looking to catch a reversal unknown if there will be any follow through but if so maybe we get a squeeze in the dow. I unsure of actual direction so basically I took this trade cause the risk reward is so good and I've got a 50/50% chance.


stopped out -3
