NQ Paper Trade Journal

Simply using this as a journal to document my paper trades and to hold myself accountable. I regularly post in the Trader P&L 2015 section, however after a string of recent losses I have moved back to paper trading.

I'm hoping that by using this platform (and opening myself to criticism), it will allow me to focus as I would in a real-time situation. I will not be using IB's simulation account, however instead I will be using my real-time IB account for data and simply posting real-time entries in this journal with the respective P&L.

Unless you provide your reasons for taking your trades, there's nothing to criticize.

 

I will provide a summary at the end of day to go through each trade in detail.. not realistic as the market is live
