The Last Dance - my last attempt trading journal

so i had two trades in total today, both of them losers.

i will share my previous trades also, with entry and exit points.

i entered a short at ON resistance, price shot through me, stopped me out and went south.

i entered long, on the 50% retracement of that move and got stopped out again, after stopping me out
market turned.

down 42 € for today.

i think in the trades i make, i get the overall picture but my timing is not good.
in the trades i took so far, i would be better off putting my entry where my stop loss would be and then place my stop loss after that. thats a common pattern i see when i analyze my previous trades.


Perfect example of not making good decisions. After a wedge bottom only a few things happen

hi,
thanks for the comment. if it is not much work for you, could you please, if it is ok with you, i know that it takes some time, that you draw on the screenshot what you mean?
if not it is also ok, i know it is time consuming, but i think it would help me to better understand your point.

I looked at the chart, what i said would be true but that has to do with the overnight session.

I dont take anything from the overnight session except its Hi and Lo. Everything else to me is useless because RTH is where the real money is made and will carve out its own path for the day disregarding Overnight, for the most part. Need to just trade what is in front of you, meaning RTH.

when i just analyzed the RTH, i think there is information missing from the ON price action.
i think in the ON session, there are also opportunities , or at least information that can help with the
RTH session. the total volume is just about one fifth/fourth or so but nevertheless it is piece of information
i think.

If I or anyone else who rejects the concept of "those guys" can be consistently profitable, doesn't that suggest that whatever you think "those guys" might be doing, it is inconsequential and therefore not worth consideration. I suggest you will be better served by trading what price is doing rather than what price might do based on your interpretation of the other factors you seem to focus upon.

No, I did not edit your post to say something you did not say. I simply redacted the irrelevant bits for the point I was trying to make. I did not type something in your stead that you did not type. I do not, and never have, done anything hideous like that. Get it straight.

Tony Robbins is a feel-good BS artist, and uses the slick psychology of trying to make people think they can get ahead in life by making them feel high-in-spirit at that moment.

When he tried to apply it to trading, I saw RIGHT THROUGH IT.

And thanks for the spell-check. Now we know we have a true Yid on the forum, one who can correct me when I get my Jew on but get it wrong.
Really?
This is the sentence I posted

Who actually said it? I don't give a F who did because I don't care.
You need to get married, make some friends and get a life, instead of sitting on the internet 24/7.

And this is what you edited it to say in your post

Home schooled, cannot trade, cannot spell and just got caught lying. :D

What can be expected from a guy who has nothing else in life except being on the internet 24/7?
BTW, I'm not a Jew. I did have a Jewish girlfriend long ago though.
Does that count?

Don't even go there man. You will lose the argument, and the thread.

You do not seem to know how to follow forum threads. Or as they are normally called, BBSes. Do you know how this all works? Or are you too busy on your phone to pay attention?
 
Look at the time stamps. You re-edited your post and are now trying to make me seem the fool. I DO NOT, NEVER HAVE, AND NEVER WILL, edit somone's quote and put words in that are not their own. That goes against every grain in my body.

Why would I respond with..."Yeah it does" if your finishing line was "I don't care"?

I was responding to your comment about how you said it "makes no difference".

I replied, "Yeah it does." See the difference?

I'm an honest BBS folk, with years of experience in and on "forums". Stop trying to pull the wool over people's eyes. If necessary, I can ask Baron or Magna to pull up the original edits, to prove you are trying to disparage me. Would you like me to do that?
