ES Trade Logs

J

jboydston

I hope these logs will be of use for someone out there. I know that I would have liked to see some "real" results before I started paying my "tuition." ;-)

I'll post commentary as my time permits. Please ask questions if you have them as I don't know what information is most useful to you folks.

My current strategy is intraday swing trading that has evolved from a pretty successfully scalping system. I switched to swings because it allows me to accomplish more things during the day. I primarily trade the tape using OMNITRADER for confirmations.

I'll start the log 7 days back to get the ball rolling...

Its cool and informative that you are posting your trades. Can you post if it is a long or short and I see what time you entered but what about the exit time. Thanx again
 
All my losses are stops, I never close a negative position manually.

All my positive trades ARE closed manually.

I trade my gut, with T/A as confirmation (sometimes contrary).

I have a sticky-note on my monitor that say "buy the exit." I don't buy good entries, but rather close stops.
