TrendReversal4Futures's journal

Hi all,

I've decided to start my own journal as I've enjoyed reading others one when I wasn't myself trading.

So as I've made the first step I hope some of you will enjoy following me.

First I'm not here to "make" calls. I say so because I won't post my trades in real-time.

But I'll post my trades on a daily basis and my statement broker every month (To avoid all the noisy and worthless discussions around the truth of what I'm doing or not).

As the thread title is suggesting it I'm at the moment trading trend reversals strategies. Actually only one but with small differences depending the underlings.

I trade at the moment the ES, Russell-2000 and Crude Oil futures and plan to add a some Eurex ones ( DAX, DJ Eurostoxx 50, Bund).

My strategy gives me entry points, stops and targets all based on indicators. I follow the same execution process on all the markets I'm following (of course this is the plan and like all real traders here not always easy to do..).

I think I have my chances to make it and believe the key will be my abilities to stick to the plan.

So here we go,

wish me good luck! :)
 
So for today I've made several trades:

I'm happy of this day even if I could've make a few extra ticks here and there. Let's see what next week will bring me.

take care.
 
Very disappointing day,

First time I break rules of my trading plan, cost me around $1000...

yet glad I'm down only -$155 for today.

I hope I won't be over-confident in the future and also don't forget when they are stats coming during the day.

I think the idea I could reach my dream to make it seems to influence me. I thought this could lead me to be too cautious or scared but on the contrary it seems I lose patience then...
