The weeks coming to an end. How did you do? And if you don't mind, what type of trader are you? Swing, algorithmic, price action?
The week is ain't over yet, but so far so good. If the week was to end now, it would be positive, but not exceptional. FWIW, day trading the ES, algo 100% automated.
Are you willing to describe what "positive" and "exceptional" means to you in terms of $ profit or of ROI
i hope next week to bring at least one price pattern automated online myself. for me right now manually placing trades is educating me on several things i always took for granted. meaning i have ways to know when a trade isn't going to work because the pattern is no longer valid and can automate that whereas once the trade was valid it was in concrete now much more flexible using rules. mark
Positive = making money (real account, not paper) Exceptional = much more than the average I'm used to make. I won't put any numbers here cause I don't want to be asked for proof and start the trolling process of being accused of lying or paper trading or faking. I have nothing to prove to anybody. Most of the traders here are accused of everything when they say they are making money, cause hey, you know, it's impossible...
Discretionary swing trader mostly in the rates space. Zero pl ytd and that's a positive. Always have trouble in January as banks/dealers expand their balance sheet's and positions. A few more traders in the pool.
