  1. Today’s Day Trading – 03/14

    I did try the Mini Dow today - not a good idea!

    Euro FX 3 minutes: 7:44am – Long TTE (1-2-3) at 13414, stop/target 6 ticks – all out at 13415 (time stop).

    Euro FX 60 minutes: 9:20am – Short TTE (RH) at 13399, stop and first target 10 ticks – covered first lot at 13395, second at b/e.

    Result for today: +6 ticks ($75)

    Mini Dow 10 minutes: 8:50am – Short TTE (1-2-3) at 10817, stop/target 6 ticks – all out at 10823.

    Result for today: -12 ticks (-$60)

    To be consistent with my recordings I add my monthly summary (hypothetical result due to 2 contracts):

    January:
    Euro FX: +76 ticks (+$950) 23 trades
    Mini Dow: -46 ticks (-$230) 9 trades
    Mini Russell: +120 ticks (+$120) 3 trades

    February:
    Euro FX: +103 ticks (+$1362.50) 37 trades
    Mini Dow: -10 ticks (-$50) 13 trades
    Mini Russell: +55 ticks (+$550) 12 trades

    March:
    Euro FX: +34 ticks (+$425) 17 trades
    Mini Dow: -12 ticks (-$60) 1 trade

  5. Marriage and trading ....what a combo.....just kidding...wish you all the best......

    I think your YM experiences are the same as mine....I will move on without it.....ES is working much smoother and easier to trade. S & P 500 emini is really the market for me after a few thousand hours of pleasure and pain and discovering the Grail dozens of times.
    Happy Trading and Congratulations!

    You won't belive it Fred but our honeymoon will be here in the Caribbeans in a nice hotel on the beach (far away from trading ;-)
