Today.. I am practicing structure analysis more.. I think I suck at it. And also practicing areas of interest.. next area of interest below.. let's see if it makes it, and if it does how will it react?

The bears have really come out of hibernation today. If the bulls make a correction.. It would seem inline with my sup/dem box... Looking and learning on demo. {image}

C are better I took a D today and very often take them on the longer term. They offer great RR fut fail more often. The RR is the advantage.

I think the bears must have smelled a skunk in my demand box... because they seemed to sniff about and then let the bulls drag them back up. I will close this soon and go get some sleep. Getting close to midnight here.

If it's not too much Damian, can you please only focus on trading. I would like to know your thought process throughout the trading period and obviously answer questions. Thanks!

{quote} Actuallly... once you download Ninjatrader 8 then you can download futures data for the instrument you want to practice on. After you download it, then you can practice for free with futures data. Yes, it will be info the previous day... but it is still great practice in my honest opinion. Especially on the weekends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvoc16oJhk8
i mean live tick data, not replay tick.

Good start for me today, no fear was involve and followed all 4 trades by my rules(did break 1 on trade #2 but was more technical then fear)

Trade 1: 89T P pullback to 618 + structure Result: -21
Trade 2: 89T 1 to 1 completion on the slightly longer term, decided to go to rescue mission after seeing that huge bearish candle Result: +2
Trade 3: 89T 1 to 1 + minor structure, went to BE when price tested structure Result: +2
Trade 4: 89T 1 to 1 + immediate structure, was waiting for price to correct a little higher(per my blue line) however saw price retest the 618 lvl without breaking then decided to enter, trailed at decision when 1 to 1 completed Result: 53

Trade#4 was done on the Jun contract after someone had told me that it had more volume.

Net Result: +36

If you want live data, then you need to open a futures demo account through the NinjaTrader website. Make sure you choose futures and not forex.

{quote} Hi peter, Definitely a situation that i often face. I'm not sure whether we should be filtering. As long as we actually trade every expectation. If we do trade every expectation, we should easily be able to recover a back-to-back expectation failure. But i'm not always able to trade every expectation. In fact, the ones i do trade are often losers. This is not because of filtering, but a lack of time. Also, i didn't had any of the trades yet that turned out to be a 5:1 or bigger RR. Whereas you accidentally happened to caught a monster swing...
I think you're right there, we have to take every opportunity that is in our trade plan, and back to back failures won't matter.
I also have the time problem. I often do not have the time to make up for losses. Sometimes that makes me force entries and the problems begin..

But apart from this I seem to have some PA reading problems also so I know now what to work on

Hey Mukai, if you use Ninjatrader then click on your chart then press 'Alt'+ 'S' and save on your computer. Then when you want to post you'll see the option upload from divice and then when you've done that press the function 'insert'
