Re: Mark Mark Trading Epic
test. I'm not trading now so I spent some time watching Al Brooks , Dave and John Carter . Wow ,at 1 time I thought I was a "scalper" ..I was doing almost everything wrong . I'm convinced to be successful a trader has to discover what method or stage of trading fits his personality . I co...

Re: bakedbeans' learning journal
No profit cushion on prop account. That thing keeps trailing. Yes, I came to the same realisation while I was away just now.. there is no cushion on prop and anything less than an equity high is simply closing the gap between that high and the liquidation level. Upside: I'm $836 closer to my Apex g...

Re: bakedbeans' learning journal
Bulenox eval account update: Net +0.165% for the day, +0.586% cumulative, target 6% Made a very nice zline test trade upward with almost zero drawdown; but got chopped up a few times afterwards, eroding my profit. I was wrong twice buying the lows on half my usual size - the damage added up, but ov...

Re: PowerX Strategy "PowerZ"
Are you throwing those out there or do u recommend them? I have traded hogs and cattle in the past but, I haven't looked at them recently. I recommend metals, energy, and agriculture: as our world comes to an end, it is important to shift your money away from digital products and into tangible asse...

Re: PowerX Strategy "PowerZ"
Full size Corn and Wheat look like this.
Full size moves $50 per cent move.
5 Wheat contracts margin $15,000
Risk $10,000 for 100 cents worth of Drawdown for 2 contracts
5 Corn contracts margin $12,750
Risk is also $10,000.
I think I have it correct now.

Re: PowerX Strategy "PowerZ"
I mixed up some numbers in my previous post. So mini-corn amd mini-wheat both are 1/5 of a full size. That makes them $10 per cent move. 5 mini-wheat margin size is $3000. Risk can be $2000 or about 100 cents of drawdown for 2 contracts. I see some nice 10 to 30 cent multi-day runs. 5 mini-corn marg...

Re: bakedbeans' learning journal
CFD account update My Corn trade has pushed higher again - that congestion zone at the bottom of the chart held out (I was within about 1c of being stopped out). I have 2x units on and am currently content to see what happens. Currently up 5.5% on the account, but another retrace would see that zer...

Re: bakedbeans' learning journal
Now why would I have three instances of SierraChart running? I'm sure it's Alias' fault :-) 2023-10-13--why-three.jpg While I'm grinding away at my Bulenox account, I'll run a (discounted!) 50k Apex account on micros (initially trading 1 MES for each ES I trade on Bulenox). And while I'm doing that...
