You mentioned making a deal with the moderators that you would be live trading so they would not move this to chit chatter. All that I am saying is that you have not proved that you are really live trading and the moderators should move this thread there. Or you can start posting live trades or daily blotters or something that would indicate real trading. My guess is that the moderators here have had to deal with you before and are not happy with your posting history?
MADE AN ACTUAL REAL/LIVE TRADE!!! sold 1 Comex Gold (GC) at 1108.10 took profit at 1107.90 trade took :50 seconds...was as high as .80 cents profit but started to retrace...as you can see now is...tell me how to post screen shot and I will...thanks!!!!
Invest 90% in a high yield bond fund and 10% in short index ETF (no leverage). You don't have the constitution for trading. I think it's even apparent to you after this many years.
is this for real? what was your risk on this trade? there is no chance that this is a profitable way to trade long term. just the chop alone makes this gain insignificant and negative expectancy long-term with commissions and slippage. worse you were probably risking much more than you realized. good luck with that. signing off, this is a total waste of time.
thanks...again...this is a 'trading journey journal'...today I traded, tomorrow I evaluate...thanks for your input
He doesn't know how, and honestly, who would question a trade which earned 2x the spread. For IC: Do a print screen (the prnt scrn key is usually f11 or f12) Open MS Paint and ctrl v, save file to desktop Go to tinypic.com and click "choose file" Locate image on desktop "upload now" Choose the output that has the tags Cut and paste the address in a new post It's a lot quicker to use an image grabber, but that involves (gasp!) using an executable. If you can learn how to embed an image then you probably shouldn't be trading. There is a time limit. We expect successful completion prior to 12/31/10.
I wonder why he would even start a journal where he'd know he'd be expected to prove he is actually live trading (given his promise to the moderators) and then not even know how to post a screenshot. He seems poorly prepared for everything.
attached is my trade today...ok, help me...what did I miss that showed that GOLD would soar when I went short?...I guess I did do right in getting out...quick...PS-the p&l is off due to commission re-adjustment by $4 or so...
