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.
If I can make a suggestion, instead of looking for a winning system, consider adding a few more products to your repertoire. IMO, trading only 1 product is like running an engine on 1 cylinder.
ReplyDeleteI used to be like you when I first got involved with futures. I traded only ES and then later on only CL. My results were mixed and very inconsistent. I started adding other products one by one and my trading gradually improved. I am now trading CL, ES, NQ, YM, NG, GC, ZB, TN, 6E.
Thanks James. If only it were that easy. I've traded all those in past except ZB & TN. Just have to make sure I have an edge before trading multiple instruments at same time which can smooth out P/L curve.
