Quote from JimmyJam:

That's OK.

facts are, i caught the big drop in february, and called the present death spiral, catching some of it. im far from a perfect trader, but am a skilled analyst and astute to the full market, economic and societal environment-- all important to properly process market data. if you don't like my prognostications, don't read them. yeah, i can be early, trade poorly and make typos-- but the record speaks for itself since 2000 --here and on the other sites. it's all here, the good and bad.... unlike some others.

of course. its a non quantifiable edge, like intuition and the ability to react to and process an assortment of stimuli--some screen based, some not.

Only in your journal here on ET Surf. Real trading is just like mak'in the donuts.

I don't have a problem with the prognostications.

It's the lack of accurate record keeping that has some believing that the trades, well, aren't real. :eek:

Surf, have you looked at http://spreadsheets.google.com/?

If you wanted to document your trades, with little more effort than you are doing now, you could post the same info in a google spreadsheet and post the link here.

I think your trading has improved a little in the last year. However, there is no 'system' that I can see in your trading, only hunches, tips and impulse buying and selling.

Use the spreadsheet, make it public, and use it as another tool to get feedback and record your results... You are probably going to be around for another few years, why not build your record in a way that can help you improve?

Have a great weekend.

Even better try one of the sites like C2, they will even keep your stats for you. At least then you will know if you are positive or negative in a your posted "trades".

typos and writing errors are causing some serious grief i see.

i do like your collective2 idea and will look into setting up an account to mimic the trades without exposing any proprietary info. thanks!

greetings,

unfortunately, i have been advised by our esteemed ET management, that links to ( a popular system testing/documentation service) or mentions of this service is in violation of et rules. therefore, i will abide by the rules and not post on that site with links.

regards,
