I think it is a new trend with brokers. I was looking at XTB in Poland and they want everything notarized as well. It is a pain, but what are we going to do? The establishment makes it harder and harder to open an account. My living situation at the ...

Trade #5 is not a) engulfing, but an inside bar and b) it doesn't look like the next candle broke the high. You also missed an opportunity between trade #8 and #9. That would change the stats to 7 Wins 4 losses.

You marked a win as a loss on Trade#3, so it is really 5 wins 3 losses. You also went short above the 50SMA on your last trade#8 which would change it to 5 wins 2 losses.

Price crossed above the 50SMA after the downtrend was your clue to wait for the 50SMA and price action to show direction.
