Ended with +20 ... must admit that I would not have taken the +19 trade if I did not know Mr D was there ... I usually get burned too easily with those type of trades ... not seeing something that Mr D is obviously seeing ... practice, practice, practice ... have a good weekend everyone ... we have a tennis league match on tomorrow ... temp for the midday is 42 degrees celsius ... nice and hot

{quote} so many turns. i counted 30 contracts. i assume you pay $4/rt. that's $135 in comms. i think you need to chill brah..
Old habit die hard I guess.... I have never ever cared about commission, slippage or trading costs as I am a volume trader discovering price as trend/momentum develops. Recall my post on "TradingCostMultiple"...trading costs, slippage, spreads etc should have no effect on +/- expectancy imo.

When I develop/test (which is what I am doing in SIM), it is all priced in. I put $6 as RT commission compared to $4.1 net costs to my broker.

VEE, FWIW, I see big losses compared to wins. Your R:R seems off. Maybe that's your system, not sure. Just an observation.

Too soon to tell..but there will always be bigger losses (which come from either floating or realized profits) on a trade by trade based analysis. It's too early to even talk about what I am doing but if I share my trade log for last 24 hours, you will be comoletely blown away to see my supposedly losses traversing into equity explosions. Price never moves in a straight line. I am posting only the share the bigger profit potential with NQ. When it trends or begins to trend, it's the best to let her follow your entry.

i don't.. kind of slow. then again it's lunch time. should pick up around 1-2p. but technically it's above average prices of last 2 days.
