Nice job Prop. Good to have you back.
Was out most of the day and only did a couple of trades with the new strat. Not much confidence there yet, and I'm thinking of sim trading it for a while. Then it's time for automation.
No apologies for the lame blotter. It is what it is. Especially on a short day.
Also, as a regular poster, I'd like to say that those bitching about the lack of numbers on this thread can officially kiss my ass. (Not talking about the guy the other day who was merely curious. I'm referring to mentions in other threads.)
You need to start somewhere, and the boys who were posting huge numbers in the past have stopped for various reasons, and I can't blame them. But they still post once in a while on good days, for inspiration, or even on bad days, because "it's only fair".
I trust the numbers of those guys, and I also appreciate the folks posting small numbers who are obviously working harder to improve (probably by multiples of ten) than those who bitch and don't post.
This thread is in the journal section for a reason. It's for those who want to to learn from their previous trades, and share their results. I personally post because I am constantly trying to improve on new strats as well as old, be they automated or whatever.
It's no secret that this shit is hard, especially recently. And if you are trying to improve, and if you have the balls (sorry Donna) to post every day regardless of results, then there are many hats off to you, regardless of your future results. Hats off to those who are willing to try.
