total paper loss -$128 At least I tried to lower my avg daily loss. worst loss limit i have set for myself is around -$160 per day. Currently good days have no limit to upside.
I think it is a very dangerous strategy that you play. If your risk management is very strict then it could be working but I am skeptical about the long term perspective.
DAY 6 Easy money, 7 points total. No major mistakes. The market was trending nicely after the zig zag in the first 30 minutes of the morning. So the numbers are : 7 x 50 = 350 less $35 comm. less 40% taxes ($140) = $175 take home. Very happy with the result.
Your broker takes out 40% taxes? What country are you in? I have never seen this at ET and I have seen a lot...
Version, I am from USA. What is your tax liabilty and what country are you from? As this is paper thus far I haven't actually done the tax thing yet. Would be interested in what to expect from IRS. Thanks JIM
