Hi 1Reason,
overall up to now what is your %wins and average Win/Loss ratio?
:)

Without actually checking the number because I make a point NOT to pay attention to it, I would say I have about a 97+ % win rate. When I lose its about 6-8X times the amount that I ave when I gain for shorts and about 10-12x the loss of my gains for longs.

As a result I have changed my long entry setup and also am using very small size when I enter (for example todays long)

I expect due to the changes that the long loss ratio will fall more inline with the shorts.
 
Your "scalping" has been worth while on its own even if you are not getting many signals from your system. Nice trading.

Do you follow a similar style when scalping (fading and scaling) or are you able to run a scalp system separate from your main system?

Keep up the great trading. You seem to be getting stronger and bigger every day....

Read through your journal today, Bob, and must say that your results are outstanding! Actually I really don't remember at all for you to perform a losing scalping call in a chat!

97% is great result and losing trade being 6-8 times more than average winner is not too big price to pay for such a hitrate really...

Keep up the great work... Your style is definetely outside of the box where minds of most traders live... :)

Hello Jegnyr,

Thanks for taking the time to say so. Very nice of you.

I use completely different signals to setup the 'trades' and the scalping. one has very little to do with the other.

I am currently working on getting more scalping candidates so that I can stay busy all day.

Best of trading to you

Bob
 
Crazy day today. Did a lot of shares as I have been trying to increase my monthly share size. My goal is to bring it to 600K per month as the next step. anything above 300K is basically free trading after rebates.

Received a couple of signals today

Yhoo + 334
BIG + 117

S:6b and S:6b+

rest of the day was busy scalping
SNDK + 3
SLM + 111
FDG + 261
ENER + 453
CMI + 29


I also bought 2 GE @ 29.01. No signal. Just feel its a good buy at this price level. Has a great yield and I think very limited downside risk.

+ 1310 for the day
+ 4119 for the week
+ 16967 for the month
