"Here is a lesson for youÂEDonât trade when you cannot afford to lose." "Thanks for the lesson. Now here's one for you, PUT A !"#$% "#$#$ BETWEEN YOUR LEGS! You have posted almost a month and half worth of results, you don't even have enough of a fluffy muffy to timestamp the the actual trades. "At least you have one thing going for youÂEou can always go back to teaching." I am still teaching. I imagine you think this somehow is an attack on my trading abilities and my character. In fact it is the opposite. It confirms what I always suspected about my habits and tendencies. I need balance with more than one job or else I get bored and self destructive. This is a self assesment of my character, your journal could do with a bit of SELF-assesment. " block out all thoughts of this trading journal, however, a cheaper alternative is just to ignore it. " the best thing I can do is remind myself what a waste of time it is to log on and find there are resolute fools like you posting results to a black box system, which by the way is exhibiting rather unpleasant drawdowns and random bursts of BREAKING EVEN. Perhaps if you got that little pecker of yours pumped up enough to post a few criteria for your woeful system, traders LIKE MYSELF and others here could help you get over the hump of NOT MAKING A BLESSED DIME IN THE MARKETS. Mediatate on that MELZYBELLSY!
"Thanks for the lesson. Now here's one for you, PUT A !"#$% "#$#$ BETWEEN YOUR LEGS! You have posted almost a month and half worth of results, you don't even have enough of a fluffy muffy to timestamp the the actual trades." Actually it has not even been a month yet. Youâre the one resorting to meaningless insults. What is putting a $%%^^ between my legs going to achieve. I am glad that I am annoying you. I am getting a good old laugh out of it. Remember this is a journal not a trading log. Look up the definition of a journal. If I wanted comment on my trading style I would be posting this in the trading section. "I am still teaching. I imagine you think this somehow is an attack on my trading abilities and my character. In fact it is the opposite. It confirms what I always suspected about my habits and tendencies. I need balance with more than one job or else I get bored and self destructive. This is a self assesment of my character, your journal could do with a bit of SELF-assesment." I was not attacking your trading abilities or your character. I was just pointing out that if you are âone trade way from going back to teachingâ then you shouldnât be trading full-time as you indicated in that other thread. Well I see you made that one trade that made you go back to teaching. "the best thing I can do is remind myself what a waste of time it is to log on and find there are resolute fools like you posting results to a black box system, which by the way is exhibiting rather unpleasant drawdowns and random bursts of BREAKING EVEN." This trading journal is a true indication of what a trader goes through when day trading the markets. Every trader knows that this business is not all peaches and cream. Losses are expected, and for you to be so righteous to believe any different is an insult to any real trader. All methods have their strengths and weaknesses and all it comes down to is managing the trade. Perhaps you are brainwashed by the enormous amount of crap posted all over the internet promising high trade percentage and enormous profits. By the way I am positive for the month but if I were negative it still wouldnât effect me because I can afford to lose. It is obvious you do not listen very well to yourself or to me. You are still entering this thread despite its annoyance to your limited tolerance. P.S. You crack me up.
One trade today Trade 1: Long Profit/Loss: -4.00 points/contract Yes Sakimonohito another loss. The true reality of trading. However, still positive for the month. Most poor trading strategies can be made into a profit with proper trade and risk management methods.
Good one Longshot. Did you make your regulation 100 points for the week. May be you made them in your sleep after reading this journal.
