Matcha's Dow E-mini Journal

Quote from NoDoji:

Matcha, I glanced at the ES chart a couple times today and figured any of you who hadn't chewed your leg off by the end of the day should be considered victorious :p

I guess Goldman Sachs forgot to release the memo stating that ES would trade WITHIN the confines of a 6 handle opening range.

You showed no weakness whatsoever :cool:

lol and thank you Nodoji!

I began to see copying your "tedious post market analysis" started to impact on my PA skill! Thanks a lot! You are truly the role model and Queen of PA!

Lately my losses are reduced by almost 50%. Maybe its still too soon to tell if thats the true number, but I also get more confidence define entry...

Hi ND,

HaHa! Indeed today was a very narrow range day during the RTH. It was a bit of a struggle for me. I used to do a lot worse in days like this. I hope GS will send me a private memo next time so I will take the day off! :) :)

I am with you that Matcha did not show any weakness at all. She played defense very well in today's trading!

Hi Matcha,

Congrats! Another very solid week for you. Very nice PnL. Excellent "avg # of trades per day", winrate and winner:loser ratio.

Most importantly, I see you have a lot more confidence in yourself and in control of both the entries and the exits. An A+ for your discipline. I wish I have your ability to SOH and to cut losses short, largest loser for the week, -0.75, it's quite an accomplishment!

Keep up the good work! I have lots to learn from you! :)

Have a good Good Friday and may the Easter Bunny be nice to you! :)

P.S. Today was a very slow day. I only took 1 trade, +0.25pts!

ha, i learned a lot from you too!:p

Let's not get overjoyed by the little baby step for Matcha! 2 weeks stats is nothing. Let's come back review with 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 10 weeks data and see if there is really some consistency built in here!

There are still a lot to learn for us! If we just keep making little steps without giving up, we will be fine!

Hi Matcha,

You did good to trade less and played defense very well!

It's a narrow range day especially the 2nd half. I took 2 trades today. Lost 1 pt. each for a total of -2 pts. Leaning from my mistakes and try to avoid trading in low volume narrow ranges in the future.

All the best!

Not doing too well on trade management.
Entering in a tight trading range is always a tough “hold” job for me. I got to learn: when entering above the signal bar that has some Overlapping with previous bars(tight trading range, horizontal flag), I have give the trade some wiggle room…

+0.5 3 trades

Not to be repetitive... distance away from the MA indicates momentum...Thats when you can really TRUST the trend... unlike when they are flat...usually Clear indication of CHOP.
I personally avoid the lunch hours easpecially after run like this one.
