out at 1793 for 4 points.

Total = 4*5 = 20 points = 1000 USD

Account Equity = 52,400 + 1000 = 53,400 USD

New Trade: Long 10 contracts ES at 1794.

out at 1792 for 2 point loss.

total loss = 2*10 = 20 points = 1000$

Account Equity = 53,400-1000 = 52,400 USD

New Trade:

Long 10 ES @ 1788....so I managed to improve my long entry price by 4 points :)

Add 10 ES more @ 1784, Already have 10 ES from 1788

So a total of 20 contracts, on an equity base of 53k USD.

which means I am going over the margin. which means i will have to reduce the size before end today.

Thought this was a 'Swing Trading' approach. 20 ES at perf. bond $4,510 = $90,200 :)

edit: ok, see your edits, got it.

You have big paper cajones!

but you make a good point that intention of this journal is swing trading, not day trading.

In that spirit I am out of those 10 ES @ 1784 for breakeven.

So, my position stands at 10 ES long from 1788.

Thanks :)
 
This thread is under the subheading 'Trading for a Living / Journals'.

I take this to mean journals of real traders, trading real accounts with real money.

Can't see the point of posting a paper trading journal here.
