Mental Ceilings and self fulfilling prophesies

Quote from baggerlord:

In an earlier post by Scientist he says he can't post real-time picks from one of his 11 systems for "obvious" reasons. Lets see here, he has already posted a couple of charts with some picks on them, why can't he post them in real time? This won't be giving away any more of his system than he already has. It ain't obvious to me, but then again, I am not in the top 1% of MENSA. Doh!

We have to wait patiently for their responses to our requests (to show evidences - Real-time ones). Ha! :D :D :D
 
I just did the calculation on my trades: $647.60/9 = $71.96 or 1.44 pts.

Looks like Aug 8th was a nice day for you. What about the days since then? Not trying to say anything, but one day of profit doesn't mean much. Bye for now, this loser still has a job.
 
No, that is the last day I traded and kept results. I traded yesterday about 6 times with the 'disasterous' results I already posted about when I started this line of thought. As I said, my nine days of trading yielded roughly $600 in profits that amounts to about 1.44 pts. a day.

My purpose in posting those results was to show you one of my good days. I only have the overall statistics for all 9 days trading. That is where I got the figures of $1200 in commissions and $600 in profits.

I find it hard to believe people are so embarassed about posting their averages. I'm not being smug. However, I hardly think I am the only trader who is keeping track. Don't think this is easy to do. I've had bad days, too.

Thanks Bruce. I think what you did that day was absolutely excellent for so many good trades. Your captured more than 100% of the daily range, and 90% win.

It seems you could improve further if let the profitable trades running longer. What do you think?


:confused:

Did you modify your system during the many days? I believe so (because you want to try for improvements?).

:confused:

It is hard letting them go. Like was said, I am stuck. I went down almost $600 yesterday trying to change to a different time frame. I have to make the change I know. But like was said, I will have to continue to scalp until the new way of trading can support itself. Thank you for recognizing my achievement. I've never done 21 in a row before.

Many thanks.

Bruce.:cool:
