Wait.. what? A month ago you'd clear a grand or two in a week's time. Now you cleared nearly $3 million in profit in a week? I don't normally do the whole "BS show us proof" but unless I misunderstand what your post reports, could you provide few statements from AMP to back this up? Or are you just trying to see if people are paying attention?
Hey Wallace, I just finished reading your journal and I noticed the same thing as the previous poster. I know you started out saying the idea is to 'double' and make $1M in 12 weeks, but based on your last post, you clearly CRUSHED that idea, and have done close to $1M in a day! I don't have a reason to doubt your results, as it seems your analysis is pretty thorough. It doesn't appear like you have caught a number of huge winners or home runs (point wise LOL), but apparently you are just increasing your contract size while capturing some nice point gains. But I was curious to see what happened to transition from where you were making a couple of hundred earlier last month to where you are now. Did you fund your account with more money, because at one point, it appeared you were down to a couple of hundred dollars in your account? Or did I miss something? Also I thought I remembered reading that your accounts were live, but I also saw a reference to demo trades. So I am not for certain, as I read your journal over a couple of days. However, it appeared that you made a huge leap 1-2 months ago, back in April to now. In either case, enjoy your journal, so keep up the GREAT trading!
Jack and PD2G12: I was wondering when the ES results would kick up some attention none of the trading in the Portfolio is with real money - and don't I wish the ES was this journal and previous ones have for the most part been about using my method to analyze the Price Time Waves movement of the euro rather than trading this Portfolio is the the third in a few months, what may be more permanent than the others, and it has to do with doubling, but I've no previous experience trading more than one instrument at a time and it's brought it's own problems - why I dropped SI CL NG I was thinking about writing up the ES trading in the QE II Report next week, the synopsis is that I haven't traded the ES or analyzed it on any regular basis, so it was new to me to try and demo trade it and, to find out IF my trading method or rather my Analysis method also worked with the ES as it does with the 6E/EURUSD, and I learned that it does work I was just looking thru Daily ranges and discovered that the ES can be as low as 4 points unheard of for the euro but what's to point out is during the last few weeks the Daily range of the ES has been Large, and that some of the analysis and subsequent trades were easy to make and hence boost profits the 'in theory' doubling was just a mathematical number - 10 pips per day since I believed that amount could be obtained trading the euro. the ES is another matter and I'm thinking in terms of 1 point a session and I'll explain the details in the Report the demo trading was not doubling, but from session to session the contracts traded jumped from 200-400-600-1000 is what I remember, again, this had a Lot to do with how many points were made trading that session and the fact that there were a lot of Large range days. this wouldn't be possible to achieve if you examine the days prior to June because the range isn't there I did trade my own account a little during this period but had a problem putting the demo trade on and remembering I should be entering trades for my own account as I was concentrating on the demo trade, and that's why I've stopped the demo trading I've learnt a lot during the period, one thing is that contract size not point amount is what matters, but for my own trading there's several things and while it's easy to click the button when trading play money, it's a totally different matter when one's using one's own money and as said, my Method is not primarily a trading method/system, so I've been working on how Do I trade the ES ? there's also been 2 trading methods being used, B&H trading of the fx pairs and gold which I've never done before, and session trading for the most part the ES, anyway, if you'll wait till next week I'll write some more about the whole trading experience and the ES doubling and one possible way to do it, and if you want to discuss it further we can
Sure. Fair warning though, I tend to dislike 'pip' / 'point' daily targets. I've written out against fixed pip or $ daily goals a bit my own corner of the web as I see a lot of benefits to non-monetary goals. ...Such as "each trade operated within the risk parameters set out before entering the trade, or better through active management" or ".. and let the trading opportunities that appear dictate how many trades or how much I hold for.. not some fixed value that could cause me to over-trade should the goal not be met for the day. Of course, to each their own. -- One thing though, on your paper performance, would you have traded a real dollar account just the same? (talking about the trade size)
OK, I understand. I was wondering how you were able to make the type of gains that you have made and seemed to remain the same without coming across excited. It was as if it was business as usual. Like you were saying, the ES did this and that, here's what I think about it, and oh by the way, I did almost $850K today and $2.9 MIL this week. LOL I am subscribed to your journal and wouldn't mind discussing it more. Thanks
you guys are making me work hard, 3 posts in one day I agree with you Jack and it'll be explained in the Report, and yes; and PD, if you don't mind the abbreviation, it was part of the exercise to see how it felt even artificially to run the account up and trade 1,000 contracts, And reallize the session profits were over three quarters of a million dollars, that such an exercise does have value and again it'll be in the Report
