A daily chronicle of results of one retail futures trader trading my own accounts. I define myself as a day trader and generally swing for at least a few points most of the time. But I do make the occasional scalp for ticks too.

chop off Monday & Friday trading then you have beautiful results week after week.
ReplyDeleteLOL - is it that simple? I had to look and you're right, for past 7 weeks I have netted +$4k Tues, Wed, Thurs...
DeleteMBA,
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering why you don't just boil down what you're doing and concentrate on refining one setup/method, trading it exclusively until you have a large sample size?? That way, You'll be able to methodically eliminate what's standing between you and consistent profitability...
Do you keep stats for yourself and use them to sharpen your edge? Perhaps blogging is taking your focus away from your goals and more on telling the story?
Just throwing some thoughts out there as I know the above ideas have really helped me on my way.

MBA,
ReplyDeleteAs you said, I also believe that a simplified method/edge is the way to go. For consistent results, imho it requires a consistent method of trading, the easier it is to follow increases the chances it will be committed to muscle memory and become habit.
