My personal trading journal. The rules are below:

 

  1. Focus will be on higher high/lower low violations and then pullbacks on a 15min chart.
  2. Using no indicators and only price action.
  3. Avoid trading around news or setups that are created because of news.

Hey Tradingjedi,

Good to see that you are running a journal, it's a great tool for keeping track of trades. May I ask a question or two if you do not mind?

You said that you are trading pure PA, no indicators, but I see a moving average and pivot levels. I think this is far off pure PA. What is your trading idea behind entering trades? What are you looking for in your PA analysis?

Also, small advice on the side: you can go to your account history in MT4 and drag&drop your trades onto the chart so it's accurately displaying the entry level, SL and TP instead of drawing it - makes it more realistic to keep track of.

So that MA is on my chart to see how accurate or inaccurate it is with regard to judging the trend direction. I've read a lot about others using it and wanted to see "why" it's used as a guide so much. Same thing with the pivots. Typically, I'll draw out my pivot lines on Sunday nights but I've tried using some automated methods of doing it.
