    30pt move nice, love my setups :). +$348 after comms, so +$468 on the day, limit is +$550 before I need to make more to qualify, 30% single day rule.

    Just own account I guess!

    :)

    Don't trade last 30mins, so Demo mode luckily as cocking it up :) Near my Max up anyways.

    Traded short, just got hit as the Envelope moved up slightly so SL moved inside, I've got to keep updating that SL for and against me, tight incase I get a spike, but outside as no point SLing inside the range is there.

    It's a compromise, between tight SL and not having SL ripped constantly cause went 13pts my way, I just didn't move as lazy and demo, but highlights what I've been doing is right.

    Then sideways, so long on moving back into range got me +18pts which puts me back into demo profit, keeping losses small for the win :)

    Shame topped out, just caught at $18 ( 9 MNQ's ) 12247 - 12290 +43pts * 18 = +$750 ish, with a with a 10 SL so risking $200 area with comms.

    Keep on with actually getting bigger 10-30pt profits, while risking sub 10 and maybe, just maybe I'll get somewhere :)

    Rough day, had a bad cheese burger from McD and kid duties, feel like death slightly warmed up, just missed a huge sell off :( waiting for a place to enter, try to make a few trades, count as a trade day, then 10 more to go, few good profits and boom funded.

    Watch this go the wrong way, drop size to 1 MNQ just incase :)

    Kept trading, hit -$80 ish on the day, nice cluster bottom went 9 MNQ's +13pts +$234 in 4mins, so closing +$160 easy life :)

    Just shy of +$1000, $800 to go and 10 till 15 and 16 to end of month.

    Easy!!! Full hour or 2 and I'd clear $1750 easy, but sadly can't do that :( not consistent, unless I run account to 10K ofcourse.

    Reviewing, made some stupid trades, even let a +60 fake me out a blip down to sell at a loss right before it bounced back cause I saw a sell off, but hey kept the loss small if it was going to sell off.

    But end of the day, risking 5pts to make 15pts won through nicely.

    Only 45% of trades won today, 10 of 22 but R:R 1:2.94 nice :)

    Shame I didn't get that 30pt move up, really wanted to get in cluster low 12430 area. +$350 area at 6 MNQ's my standard in minutes.


    Last year of being poor, all being well :)
