"since 08.01.16 (August 1st 2016)... So that was correct." Some people think that it`s the only way in the Universe to read the date.
How do you read then August 1st 2016? And how can you make january from it? I am European, never use the US format, but even I understood the correct date. Just let your brain work a bit... or try to make it work. If you have got none it is not your fault, you're just the genetical victim. PS: I have a link with Russia too.
Frankly speaking, I met a margin call last Friday as I posted it back then. Went from 1200 to 100$ in a few hours. When I think that I could have (Woulda Coulda) closed it for a tiny profit on a Pullback but I got greedy ... Averaged down whereas the price was stumbling down ... Such a dick. Since then I made up part of my loss with a wire (Lol). Currently standing @ 800$. Not sure this journal is a good idea as it add some pressure on me (Pts wise, Socially wise). I prefer to move on without expectations (Could it be mine or yours). Got greedy partly thinking of this journal (Yeah, I'll make (Show Off) twice my daily goal) ... I could have traded today but I satisfied myself by following the market. Didn't place trade. That's it. Screwed up this challenge. Broke rule #1 (Stay in the Game) but hopefully I had some capital aside to backup my mistake. First time ever I experience such conditions (Bias + Vol). Simply got trapped (Been a Turkey @ Thanksgiving) knowing I got cocky thanks to the luck I had on the holiday (Sleepy) sessions. Wish you the best.
Never have expectations, except about the will to follow your rules, as expectations will influence your behavior. And in general that influenced behavior has a negative effect on your results. Do what you have to do and hope that your system will give you the result it should give statistically.
I'll make my comeback next session. Took a week for mentally rebooting while recovering my account a bit (I am 6Pts away from all time high). If you don't mind I'll use my first and last jocker -> To Reboot the stats (Day, Pts, Average). Last one cause I've got no further capital to backup my errors. So I am ALL IN this time. For the Worst but also the Best. Have a nice week end all !
- One good trade per day - Ideal setup being 3 (2.9) to 1 (1.1) - BE trades ain't taken into account (Not Good) #Win / Week _ Pts / Week 0 _ -5.5 1 _ -1.5 2 _ 2.5 3 _ 6.5 4 _ 10.5 5 _ 14.5 Expected Win Rate >= 0.5 ... Could take bigger but not lesser TP. Now I have to truly manage my downside. See you on monday, Cheers.
