    So slow....
    No news but perhaps the G7 meeting will stir the markets up a little bit if something interesting is dropping out. ;-)

    What a f**king chop!

    I had to stop the realtime trades for a while to get my act together...
    I am in a drawdown, and with today's market there'll be no recovery.

    You didn't miss a lot in the estx, was a market for maket makers only. But what do you think about this short gbl. Do you wanna take it over the weekend? You know with this G7 meeting untill tomorrow nobody knows ...

    I am out in GBL.. Took the loss @ 17.

    Moreover, did some scalps in DAX & SMI, but no recovery...
    I've been going down since yesterday. I need a break to heal the pain.
    I am more or less where I started this journal 7 trading days ago,
    i.e. $28.6k right now (all in). My forex, stocks, & commodities trades
    are financing my Eurex losses.... :-(

    try to make it back today in a non trending market with still a potential for break(down)? minutes ago you said: "enough pain"

    I pull the plug! I am back @ $28.3k, exactly where I started on 1/Feb.
    This is either a 0% return in 7 trading days, or a 11.3% drawdown
    from my $31.5k end-of-day highs, take your pick.
    In either case, too much time/effort/risk-taken for nothing.
    Last couple of days have been a hell.

    I reset all counters here (it's better for me psychologically to write off
    all wins & losses). Will be back soon for a fresh start when the pain is healed
    to the point that I am able to trade again.
