For all of you guys trading YM, what is the highest number of points you have made in 1 single day from daytrading YM and how man RT's was it. My personal best is 208 on 9 Rt's.
I don't remeber that. But, I am a n00b thus, I am not supposed to remeber those things. I bet it wasn't much though, because it was back then when I was swinging 10 contracts around. Now I swing 3.
cool thread mine was 102 pts on 3 rts...allin and scaleout actually that wasn't the highest, my highest was 129 on 15 rts but the former was vastly more efficient (got and stayed in a huge trend)
So what do you guys average per trade as far as points ? My initial target is 20 points and my average ends up beign around that too.
I don't really count points, but I keep track of money. Largest single day loss for me has been $42000. I have had several days where I have made $10000-$12000 in one day. Highest one day gain is $17500. Highest calendar month gain is around $55000.
42k ? how many cars are you trading at a time ? I was not actually looking for $ amounts but for me my biggest gain has been $9900 with my biggest loss being $1050.
