8 for 8 at the moment, all quite small, jump on short term momentum, exit when it stalls. ZERO BS Predictions is KEY!!!
Firstly Oil, WOWSA's, 46 nice and cheap, holding off as long as I can on filling the car up, not many miles left, might as well try to get it as cheap as possible. A good day was had, no stupid trades, no high risks, all trades went to profit pretty much instantly, trades where... 5mins +$130 then 3 mins each for the rest, what a way to make money , get in, get out, take some job done, next, don't get emotional, just on momentum and exit when it starts to flag. 100pt swings, only in exceptional circumstances pretty much. Made 4 trades, need to be 10+ really, get to $1000 days get consistent then up the lot sizes. $1000 days doesn't sound real, but kinda isn't until I withdraw it as I can't easily spend it and can if I screw up easily lose it
Love this journal Turveyd. Interesting idea about sim trading in your head until you get in tune with the market.
Especially if I've barely traded in a while, get sim winners, then place live trades, take losses, back to sim and repeat. I've got to get the old stupid, picking a bottom / top out of my head and go with the flow, that's my main issue.
Over thinking it and failing to trade, despite sim trades all working, can't get out of sim mode. Call out, then hopefully back for US session and more awake.
GA Long 1.8569.4 got green HA, but yeah weak failed to take out 30ema might be start of new funky downtrend, hasn't improved since typing this easy, hang on, no test and reject LOL Give it 2mins, then panic!
Out, should of took the spike top of range for +$150 sadly, +$75 after comms will have to do, better than a loss. 9 for 9. Must stop counting them, I'll try to hard to keep that up and end up blowing a huge chunk.
More trust required in the force, I mean uptrend!! Client moved it till 2 arghhh then put tasked with school run, I wonder why I'm poor !! Back on GA long, given enough of a pull back, but not to much cause that'll indicate change ofcourse.
Drattts, should of made sure I was home for the 6pm GMT trend continuation into the US Close DAX has had a great move down, a great sucker move up to 9880 to short for a quick 20 so far aswell. Very tired and not in the mood at all, role on better weather, normal Jan S.A.D. get it every year, need to move to Spain I think by next winter!
