Trading to NOT LOSE vs Trading to Win

  1. I customized pretty much everything with my trading systems. This is probably your first time to see my way of using indicators. Sorry, I can't disclose publicly what those things are and how to create them. Frankly speaking, even if you are able to figure out what those things are from my screenshots, you won't be able to figure out other pieces in my charts that I use to trade my setups.

    Good luck to your trading.

    Those MA crossovers with a 1st pullback are so slutty.

    man, I had too tight of a stop on ZW today. Got out then it rallied hard since. fudge!!

    Of course, I forgot 7:30am is announcement day for NG! I was up like $300 one minute and less than a few seconds later whoosh! went negative and some. damnit.

    But my options quadrupled and stilling going. Wished I had bought more. Holding onto winners and cutting losers short. That's the plan. In the long run that should work out. Sometimes it can be bumpy.

    Dont know if they are ''just'' moving averages; but they track/move just like them; the green one being slower/less commissions than the faster dashed line.

    Too bad sideways slop chop trend[ aka barbed wire range as an elite named it] makes moving averages useless.:cool::cool:, :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:[Edit evena 200 dma which maybe does not apply here; 5 different chart services have 5 diffeerent numbers for a 200dma
