Hello, a little bit about myself. I am trading from the Netherlands and started trading early 2011. At the moment of writing i am 28 years old. My methods are fully technical hybrid(manual as well as automatic). Without going into too much detail about my system, i wish this topic to be a journal where i can track weekly gained % and put some trading notes (non-technical).
The main reason why i opened this topic however is because i see myself as a person with a competitive mindset. As a teenager i wanted to become number one in sports and when gaming join the best clans available. I am a person that can get easily obsessed by things. Figuring out markets was something that i enjoyed first years of trading. After this comes a stage however where you simply do your thing each and every day and wait. A bit of (extra) stimulus wouldnt do any wrong and thats why i opened this topic.
I used to be paranoid when creating trade explorers, information send from your broker to an explorer... who gets to see this information? And in case this account shows continious growth, would my strategy be in danger? On the other hand i hope that if this TE will be succesful some scouts might eventually see some potential in me but thats a totally different story. Also, please note that this for me (despite the low amount), will be a long term project. Dont expect big amounts traded / big growth % in a short timespan. There will be several days in a row where i will not have any trades at all, main reason for this is because i want to snipe the best trades. TE start date is 02-09-2015. For privacy (and paranoid) reasons i blocked price levels as you can see. Lets see how this one will end up...
