SP 500 Intraday swing

Inves,

Thanks for your reply. I'm new to the forum, and did not know there was a trading journal.

 

Inves,

Sorry for a newbie question.
You mean I should start my own thread, or that I should post trades as a message and not an XLS spread sheet?

Thank you,

Dan

 

long 83. .5 pt stop

 

stopped out +1pt on closed trades. I shoulda know that when it tried to break out from teh cup pattern three times and fell back each time, that sellers were still in controll.

Long 82.5 one last time.

 

adding more at 1281. 1 pt stop on all possitions, previous possitions out at BE.

 

Hey dan05,

I just downloaded your spreadsheet, that's pretty good trading there.

inves200 means that he's trolling for newbie traders ...

... with his hodgepodge shimmy/sham in-and-out up&down 1pt stop short/long/short guess here*there "trading system", and your clean trading with excellent profits is showing him up.

Next time dan05, just make it easy on everyone and post your results directly. That way any newbies who come to this thread can see what good trading is all about, really ... and exit stage left. (boy that was a lot of work!)

Hey inves200,

Why don't you give Franz a call over at Traders International, I'm sure you two have much to talk about ...

Later,

Jimmy

 

Who is Franz? Do tell more....

 

This is trend following system ... unfortunately the last two days have been quite range buond. Heck, the ES has been in 3.5 pt range for 3 hours. Yah, scalping 1 pt here and there sucks.

Maybe a trend will yet emmerge here.

I am saying very clearly that I am road testing a paper trading system. If anyone would like to start a page, call bottoms and tops and do better, you have my undivided attention. I'm not that good, but at least I am upfront by posting calls in real time.

Anyone want to post a link to thier own trading journal with real time calls with a fully disclosed methodology, please do so.

Wait for a good trending day and then this system will really shine.

the LOUSY TRADER

 

this has been a trend day so far....

lower highs and lower lows

 

Hey Jimmy,

Will reenter Short the Nasdaqs in 1 hr aprox, and ES in 15 minutes Short too.



I'll post the results at the end of the day. Today was not
