Matcha's Dow E-mini Journal

Quote from Bolimomo:

Thanks for confirming this and your kind words, ~~~.

I know the boom-bust stock cycles in Hong Kong. When you see restaurants offering Shark Fin Mixed with Steamed Rice, bottles after bottles of Remy Martin XOs along the wall... and that older folks and house wives lingering around the plasma monitors in the local banks watching stock quote crawlers, talking about which stock to buy next instead of what's for dinner... the top is near. :)

:D haha!
So true.
Btw, Been to that most expensive seafood-shark fin, albalone restaurant in HK? I think it's called "Fu Hao"=Big Boss restaurant.
If I can be CP by the end of this year. I would love to take my mom there on my next trip:P

Thanks for taking the time read this journal, increasenow!
1- still sim trading. need more practice.
2- once I can achieve more than 50% of win rate. 65% will be the best. Once I can trade like robot, no emotions. Once I can master all the patterns and setups.
3. only 1 contract. Then will add 1 contract to work on 2nd exit. money management.
4. last week I had avg. 12 trades per day. Still over trade most of the days. Maximum 5 trades per day will be ideal.

No need to apologize:p

I do use FIB sometime.swing high to swing low on previous leg, previous retrace, then found confluent zone. But I only use my eyes to measure while intra-day trading.

I copied your method on YM. it was 23.6% level FIB retracement level was the turning point. And it formed a Double bottom pattern. Pretty cool

Sorry I made an error. Its FIB level 38.2%, not 26.2%

My parents deceased .. so you are very lucky you can still take your mom to enjoy some great food in HK..I love and respect people who're filial to their parents :) Matcha .. you can also take your mom to "Yung Kee" @ Wellington St, Central, HK island or "Yue Kee" @ Shan Tseng, Sham Hong Road, New Territories for the famous roasted goose(so yummy!). For dim sum, go to Che's Cantonese Restaurant (located in a office building) @ Lockhart Rd, Wan Chai.(must try the polo char siew bun) Also try taking your mom to Lei Yue Mun (a small fishing village on the Kowloon side) where u can pick the live seafood and then take it to a restaurant for cooking. I love the Superb Seafood at Lei Yue Mun :)

Hi

How is the measured move calculated?. Thanks in advance.

Enjoying the thread.... very nice.


Trade 2: Short. ,measured move and floor pivot point (S1 level) played out nicely too. But I took profit at the 9825 zone-last S level...Didn't have the guts to wait for more points.
Entry:9885
Ext:9828

I am very worried about them since they don't really know what they are doing. They simply just buy, buy. buy and hold. In the past few years, some of them are very very profitable. Market handed lots of people free money. They are in the market at the right time. But I am very very worried...



tell them don't put all the eggs in one basket (don't just invest in stocks) and if they have some excess money .. invest in Chongming Island.
 
Matcha....

While I am not infavor of "time " charts...pull up and print out all your charts you have published here...sure on close obversation you will see the "obvious" trades...

As for you personal goals, besides NOT going broke...the answers lie within...
