    Anek,

    Start looking a pretty apron to wear =)

    Someone else is bringing home the bacon.

    Everyone's contribution to this thread is really helping. I'm getting closer and closer to live trading.

    I paper traded the DAX this morning and made $725 ! (I know just paper money) but the system is starting to make sense. I just had to fight with myself not to execute the trade sooner (fear of losing profits, who knew how important the psychological factor would be ?)

    A little more time of chart watching (and maybe some yoga) and I'll be ready to trade with you guys.

    Keep up the great work guys !

    Blah day alright. 3 small trades. I do most of my stuff around new highs and lows. When we drop back inside the daily range I pretty much lose interest.

    Hi all,

    Net Loss $27 today on NQ, overall I am happy, stuck to my guns on trend trades for most of the day just could have had some slightly better entries.....I think overall it was just a harder than average day IMHO

    One thing to note is that I was up 6 NQ points on my first trade...then my next trade I was in on a beautiful entry and put in an auto stop as per usual and I put in a wrong digit which stopped me right away for -1.25 (stop was supposed to be 2.50 away) well that was the low of the move and it proceeded to rocket up and I would have made realistically 4 - 6 points which would have put me at my target 10 points for the day and I would have probably gone ultra conservative after that.....course these things will happen but it was silly because it was a concentration error and not a poor trade error....oh well :D

    Lost some on GOOG today (tricky fella today) and did about breakeven on APPL.

    Cheers :D
