Lorenzo, Easy man. Spike can't be the moron because I am the moron. But why is your first report has zero commission? Good trading. William P.S. Good performance either way.
This is the statement of the trades with contracts number and execution time The source is from NINJA and there is no possibility to make a bluff As regards the commissions I haven't put them in the system report. however where is the problem? 125 R/T per....4,5 - 5 -6.5?? it depends from your broker... Do you think it's a great performance? I don't think so Watch at Profit factor and Percent Profitable yes good but not GREAT! The original question was "Anyone made money in May? " I answered YES...
No problem, just curious. Your performance in May was good. As for May being a bad month, volatility is good. It creates opportunities.
Aside from whether anyone's claimed profits are true or not, perhaps there is more general way to generate comment. Did anyone not make money in May?
Back to the original topic, May was a great month to be trading equites(that's all I trade, so am not sure about other investments). Volatility picked up which made for great months for many traders in my group as well as others I have spoken too. I personally had my best month of my six year career. However, trading isn't always about just volatility, it is also about what is in your head. If you are not all there mentally, it doesn't matter how good the market may have been, you may not fully profit from it. Also, even if you are all there, if you can't find what is in play that will also effect your performance. It helps to be trading with a good group of people( a team) you can trust since you can't always find everything yourself.
For equities trading, one of the best month's of the last few years regarding the varied amount of opportunities available.
