Need somewhere to think out loud,

Ahhh missed this, when your Trailing drawdown gets to 25K it won't keep increasing, so as long as account stays >25K then I'm fine, I can turn off the $550 Daily Draw Down aswell by requesting it, when I'm in profit by $1500, so the only way to lose account ( ignoring bad trading and sucking ass ofcourse ) is trading after markets closed or trading too many contracts, 2 x NQ till >$1500 profit, as I don't plan to trade more than 1xNQ with MNQ that's fine :)

Licking these guys a lot, the more I learn, lets see if I pass and if they fund me :)
 
Method is turning into a follow the trend and join as I've been trying to do for ever ever, but plays with my mind.

Envelope 4lwma H+0.01% and L-0.01%
Envelope 8lwma H+0.02% and L-0.02%
Envelope 24lwma 0.02%

Simple, wait for all 3 to line up and easy sailing, can hold longer.
 
Todays issue, Multi tasking, trading both accounts same time, click then click, then move SL, Move SL, I keep looking at both charts like there different charts, tried shrinking 1 but then can't see where to put SL and values different as Futures and Spot account, never easy!!


CALM!!! Breathe, even if I just make 1 or 2 trades to count as a day traded that's fine with me today!!
 
Killer Headache, the issue with riding MTB I guess, tires me out, see if the Ibuprofen gets it, 20min sleep failed, but alas no trading more than 1 or 2 to count as a trading day of my 15, no point wasting a day.
 
Trade 1, SL too tight, SL hunted right before reverse, damn there good :)

1 tick lower and I'd of been fine LOL literally reversed on the damn SL damn it!!!

REVENGE MODE as I've got a headache, $100 restart fee needed later LOL
 
Long nice profit, then a pull back, back in long and another profit, up on the day, this is really too easy, kinda like it being other peoples money, don't think attitude will change when I'm making or losing $$$'s, as still not really mine :)

Leave my account in Demo, headache, drop a bit in the trial fine, drop a bit in my live account no thanks.
 
Screwed up that trade, tried to pick a bottom in a down trend, rather than joining and having a fixed exit point.

Got lucky, got to -$300 area, -$550 = DEAD, had it under control SL -$400 worst case, bounced back and +$200, very nice day.

But stupid trade and had 15 MNQ contracts on the go, stupid stupid stupid, that's how to lose the account and never get funded, take thy loss, stick to max 6 MNQ's and don't be a muppet!!
 
+$130 today, could of been much more, 1 SL hit perfectly ran +$60 rather than -$30, missed a lot of trades, headache.

Mainly my trading is improving day by day currently, back on my live account mirror trades tomorrow, getting the hang of it.

1 screen, both MT4 and ninja 1/2 a screen each, then 2 tablets NQ and ES either side so I can see a better over view and watch while main screen watches TV, then pause screens up, trade, back to TV.

Simples :)

No need to change method ever again to, working perfectly :)
 
Found Performance History, handy.

Today.....

24 Trades Averaging in left on 1 Contract so was doing 4 per go, 50% win rate.

Avg Profit $24, Avg Loss -$11 nice :)

Largest Win +$114
Largest Loser -$27 nice.

5.64Mins average time in trade.

+$170 - Comms, $80 of Comm's that HURTS!!

Profit $5200 per month based on today, - Comm's so +$3000 area I guess.

Only 2 shorts since I started this, I've got a real mental block on seeing a downtrend and trusting it and shorting it, needs work.
