I'm sorry, but this trade is disregarded for journal integrity. The reason: your stop is too wide. Your trading style has no more merit than someone averaging in at your entry point of 2019.5 and then adding to this trade all the way up to the stop. In fact, the trader who averages in smartly - while subjecting the account to slightly more risk - has a better chance of making money than the way you're going about it. Best of luck though.

Exited a few minutes ago at 2025.25 for -6.25. on this trade from 2031.5. I'm flat now, and bidding 2008.75 to enter long again.
