    I intend to post all my trades for the reminder of the year in here. My discipline has wavered and maybe this public record of my trades will help in not taking marginal trades.

    I am currently down 7%. If I had started with $1 million at the beginning of the year, I would be now at $930k. I will be risking 0.25% per trade, based on the initial capital, so that is $2500.

    All trades posted will be at the price including commissions.

    Note that 70% of my trades are unprofitable, so feel free to fade me! :D

    I ALWAYS use stops. Hesitant to post them. Is that a problem?
     
  7. It is if you want people to believe that you're actually serious. I am not hounding you, just that this board is populated with guys looking to be right rather than trade well. It's important to have an idea of the heat you're willing to take.

    Because of my lack of confidence these days, i'm going to take the amount risked down further to around 0.15%-0.2%. So $1500-$2000 risk.
