I know I said I won't be trading the afternoon, but I had a few free minutes, so made 1 more trade.

1:28 PM - Short 2 ES 1072.00
1:32 PM - Cover 1 ES 1071.00
1:46 PM - Cover 1 ES 1071.50
Result: +1 , +0.50
 
i did not mean to imply any competition between you and awash. my main question was about your performance. and what happens, i get labeled "a bug" for it? its not a good sign to ditch questions about performance, believe me.

good job FAST...

Looks like you're ready to step it up a few notches, 10ES!

Twice as fun.. twice as exciting :)
Thanks but not yet...need a couple of months adjusting to the 5-lot max. size. To be honest with you, I'm still not very comfortable seeing my P/L flick up and down in increments of $62.50. Even in the next couple of months, I will normally enter with a 1 or 2 lot but build upto 5-lot when the conditions warrant it.

TK, I didn't label you a "bug" although you can be a "bug" at times (in other posts; not this one) :D

I don't have time to go over 34 pages to give you a performance summary, but if you have some free time, which I'm sure you do, feel free to write up a performance summary for this journal :cool:

I'm in the process of moving my account from IB to Open E Cry. I will also be out of town from the middle of December till the middle of January and will start trading again when I return.

Hope everyone has a good holiday, and a profitable 2004! :cool:

well.. thats another bad sign. (if you cant tell from the top off your head your p/l for a certain period).
I know I'm down around $2.5K overall after commiss. from the point I started trading stocks around May/June til now.

So, you a paper millionaire yet, LOL :D

Any particular reason why you're leaving IB to join Open E Cry?

I need a new retail broker.. debating between the two.
 
When you are out of town...and have a wonderful Holiday Season! Keep up the good work when you come back...try to work on staying in the trades a bit longer...baby steps will do it!

Good Fortunes!

Chris

BTW, I have some info for you that if you follow when you come back should make a big difference in your P&L! I think I have found a good method for you at this point for when you come back. TTYL!
