1:55pm CDT - Well my early exit on 6E yesterday ended up making me an extra 7 ticks. Rewarded again for not following my rules! Today had 2 6E trades and I messed up on 1st one by miscalculating the target which cost me 20 ticks, then I just plain skipped the signal on the 2nd which cost me another 20 ticks, or $500 total. I skipped this solely because I thought it was going to be a bad trade. Like I know these things! I am glad to see this system getting a lot more signals lately, 27 already this year vs. 19 for all of 2015. And the mistakes overriding the system this week have been just about a wash. The theoretical gain for the 5 trades this week was $1117 vs. $1221 for my actual gain on the 4 mismanaged trades I took. Perhaps this is close enough to even that I will get back to taking all signals and following the damn rules!
