Yes, Burke, great post. I usually just get out a 2x4 and whack 'em upside the head.

Pro, I'm feeling guilty for busting your chops. I gotta admit I was talking about myself as well.

Saw you pop into the 2% club, sounds like things are coming together for you?
So you're on a 30 day trading plan? Would you care to share what your plan is?

I've implemented a post-trading day logging system for myself, it goes like this:

1. Capture my stats: wins/losses, pairs traded, entry/exit prices etc.
2. Did I follow my trading plan? If not where did I deviate and why did I decide to "leave the reservation".
3. What are the lessons learned that I can take away from this session?
4. What did I do well? (like cutting a loss short)
5. What can I do to improve for next time?

Having a system helps keep myself honest. That way I can't try something and just say "It didn't work." Been there, done that, bought the T-Shirt.

BTW, I am rooting for you, keep up the good fight! 8)
There is but one simple truth to wit: the truth is always simple

Guilt is a neg. emotion that destroys, YOU have NOT offended me.
I feel you were right on the money.
It looks as though your "plan" is much more detailed than mine.

All I do is look at market, see what appears to be a move in a certain direction and enter.

I have studied work from Sam seiden/Andre Pahar(FXknight)/Chris Lori(pro traders club)/Mightyone/TRO/Dragon33/Craig Harris method/VSA, VCA, and the list goes on and on and on from web board "systems".
Many posts by hundreds of people.
All FREE resources.


I'm focused on THIS though:

For the impatient the first 2-3 levels will be the hard part, after that the ball starts to ROLL.

Starting balance based on increments of 3.
$30.00, $300.00, ect

First Go round is starting with 10 cent pips to prove to yourself and to build confidence that you can succeed in your quest to freedom. A Dry Run.

New balance/Lot size/Daily profit/ # of days trading

$30 - 10cents - $2 - 15 days
$60 - 20 -$4 - 8

$416 - $1.40- $28 - 1
$444 - $1.50 - $30 - 1 Time to go to FREEDOM Level
$474 Bal.

Start with $474 and use $2 pips!!!
Do it all over again but move Decimal one place to right..

$474 - $2 - $40 4 days
$634 - $3 - $60 5
$934 - $4 - $80 5

$4214 - $13 - $260 1
$4474 - $14 - $280 1
$4754 - $15 - $300 PER DAY INCOME!!!

You add up the days....if you don't like waiting you can start with 30cent pips the first round...

20 pips a day baby.......I won't go into the next level........

START WITH $20 PIPS...... and finish with $3000 a day income...HEHEHEHE

I thought you were banking with all the m5 Mzone winners you were posting???
What happen?

Yes,
It's loosely based on his 40 pips a day plan that moves you 17 levels in 1yr.
I doubled the micros per $300 account balance and reduced the required daily pips by 1/2.
I don't really understand the 2nd half of the document so
I'm using a 9 pip stop and rolling with it.

My #1 focus is NO big losing days.
My #2 focus NOW is figuring out a way to let profitable trades run.
I'm getting sick and tired of seeing 20-30-100+ pip moves in the market after I exit.
I need to go back and read all the options M.O. gave me for scaling/holding/ect.

BTW,
Going from a default balance of $47 to a current balance of $296ish I've made like 600% in 25 days.

REMEMBER THOUGH- THE ONLY TRUE TEST, IS TIME
My trading strategy is very loosely based on this:

MightyOne wrote:
As of Monday, September 28th, 2009 I shall record live trades here.

I shall attempt to grow a micro account from $450 to $450,000 using the least amount of skill and greatest amount of luck ---> including entering trades with a rabbit's foot

While this account is purely for fun I will try my best to take it seriously

The money management to be used shall be:

(8 pip stop loss)

per.$400: 9 micro

9: target: 3-6-25 = +2.549%

target 3-6-25 = exit 1/3 at +3, 6, & 25 pips.

If stopped at -8 after:

1. Immediately wrong: -1.8%
2. Exiting 1/3 at + 3: -0.97%
3. Exiting 1/3 at + 6: +0.075%

Method of entry:

Place trades on a 1 minute chart when I feel that there is a high probability of making 6 pips so that I will have a free shot at a 2.549% gain.

Focus of Account (besides not losing money):

1. 100% in 21 days
2. 50% in 21 days
3. 25% in 21 days

Reaching goal 1: 5 stars
Reaching goal 2: 3 stars
Reaching goal 3: 2 stars

Reaching all 3 goals: 10 stars

Percent gain shall be calculated against a multiple of $400.

My #2 focus NOW is figuring out a way to let profitable trades run.
I'm getting sick and tired of seeing 20-30-100+ pip moves in the market after I exit.
I need to go back and read all the options M.O. gave me for scaling/holding/ect. -PRO

That I will help you with :wink:

The focus is highest highs after lowest lows + momo and vise versa:
