By the way, let me explain again the purpose of the journal, just in case somebody missed the very first post.
I had this idea how to outperform the market in the simplest way possible. I think the idea was/is great, it had 2 flows and I dealt with them.
Now at this point someone could have said: OK, it sounds good on paper, but can it be done? Well, thus this journal was born. Now I apologize to everyone for not having a few millions on my account so I could have used real money, but again, the point here was that just with a few well timed trades it is possible to make 40 or so ES points for the whole year and you only have to be long for the rest of the year, and you already outperformed the market.
And if you do the math, with the original plan if you were right going short, you only need to make 20 ES points (because it counts double, compared to the market) for the whole year, and you are good.
Now how hard it is to make 20 ES points by being short in 12 months??
Probably I should have written a book about it and got paid for it instead of giving it away free here. My bad, I am sorry....
