2021 PNL thread would be fun. Ranging from -$20,000/days to +$65/days to +$20,000 days. Whatever the number, win or loss depends on your account size. It's productive to get it off your chest or pound your chest so you can get it out of your system. And no flaming would be allowed in it. Only productive talk or send DM's if you want to really talk to the poster.
Until somebody can make your idea real, here's a welcome spot. C'Mon in! Any daytraders get their numbers Today? https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/any-daytraders-get-their-numbers-today.359522/ Flaming? Naaa, not on ET. Gotta go to Politics Thread for that. Nothing Ever gets done over There. Great place to practice your troll chops.
A couple comments: I think I've mentioned this before, but without the context of account size a $1K winning day doesn't mean much. Why do we never see your losing days?
I'm for %gain vs. %risk. eg. hey I made 14%gain on a trade with 49%risk! I'm a freakin genius! eg hi I made 4%gain today on a trade with 1.3%stopgap risk. Or for those who wanna, hell yeah, post that cash. I made 14000gain today on a trade with 40000risk! gee3nyys!
It's been done before https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/trader-p-l-2007.83837/page-268#post-1537449 Maybe I will start a new thread if nobody else beats me to it. I expect moderators will need to be active in it.
In fairness, I think that KC shows a lot of detail on cash allocations etc throughout the various posts he has made over time. The context is close at hand. overnight shows his skivvies all day long. It's pretty much there for context in et it would seem. But I'm mos def in support your of your point on context. To me a post without Risk Points, the Reward Points are wayyyy less meaningful. Hey my stop gap was $300 and i cruised to a $543 profit. Ok, now I'm listening, but hey my stop gap was $76.14 and i cruised to a profit of $543 profit. That's mo bettah.
Doit Toit! Great Idea! Anybody gets testy throw them in the Politics Thread. Let em work it there. Freakin' place is Troll Central, not that there's anything wrong with that, I'm one of them too.
