Plan the Trade

Good job, as usual.
The last 2 weeks, NQ didn't seem to be moving that much, but this week it is back to moving!!

Thanks a lot for posting the chart.

Cheers,

noone trading here anymore i guess i wont either

In bed with fever. Been watching nasdaq on mobile, but feeling lousy.

tried YM today..
2 good wins, 2 small losses...

hope everyone had a good day..
with the entry level, im trying to locate the source of the move, and put the pending just in front to make sure it gets filled.
not thinking in terms of breaking out from the previous bar... but thinking about it in terms of creating space
hopefully thats correct. !?

+21 traded earlier in the day today, missed a lovely break (of the continuation down just now) at 7524.

2 trades today: -10 -10

T1: long on a 123s change of trend that took me out at SL straight away.
T2: at the very end of the session, long on a 2b near the bottom of the range, that took me out by 1 tick.

Have a good week end guys.

had to do a little over time:

+1

Good job, well done.

A bit unlucky for the +1T result in the second trade, but not within your control.
At the end, nice entry and definitely very good trading!!!

Just saw your post CG, its becoming more and more apparent these days that fighting cancer is more multidimensional than the old belief that the medical profession were the only ones with solutions, so wishing you every success in your fight back mate. Thinking of you and obviously looking forward to the days you get back amongst us trading. Best wishes to you and your family :-).

took a late one:

Miserable BE today for me, hope you guys had better. There's something satisfying about being able to watch and not participate rather than getting a kicking as previously would have been the case.

After reviewing the trades from the last 2 weeks, I modified slightly my trade management, and replaced the "+10 at +12", by "+6 at +11":

SL:10T; TP: 12T
+1 at +6
+6 at +11

4 trades today: +12 -10 -10 +1

T1: long on what I thought was a 123s with big thrust bar, price reacted straight away at the fill, and was at TP within a couple of seconds.
T2: short on what I felt was a 123s back into the trend. At the fill price didn’t react at all, and took me out at SL within a couple of seconds.
T3: short on a simple pull back. As for T2 above, price didn’t react and took me out within seconds.
T4: short on a 123s, price reacted very well on the fill, but unfortunately just took me out at +1T as per trade management, before shooting down like if there was no tomorrow for a 100T or so.

Cheers,

Got + 20 today.

Hi guys!

I wasn't going to post this before now. Of course it contains a lot of personal info about me, but the more i think about it, the more i realise that i have nothing to lose anymore. Everybody here, as traders, are more like family to me than anything else! Afterall, we're all trying to achieve the same target - success during trading.

My life has taken a very different direction at the mo. Despite the (apparent) statistics saying that almost no-one defies a stage 4 glioblastoma, i'm determined to prove that it is possible.

Rather than re-write all the details, i'm gonna include the link to my campaign below;

https://www.gofundme.com/stage-4-gli...cancer-fighter

Basically, what i am asking is, if anyone is happy to and can share this around social media for me, the more chance there might be of success. If so, it will be much appreciated.

I'm trying to make sure that i will have funds as it is required to fight this fight. I'm planning sessions of Hyperbaric Oxygen Chambers and combine them with Ketogenic esters. All the details are in the article and there are links at the end to some websites & pages from some truly great experts in this field.

Thankyou in advance guys and as always, don't live with the stress that i have for so many years. Relax, take the losses with the gains. It's impossible to win win win and never take losses alongside it. It's part & parcel of the game.

Good luck and best wishes.

average day on NQ for me...

I contributed to the fund CG (and will continue to do so when I am live), hope it helps. Least anyone could do, especially after all the good stuff you contributed (so far!) to the thread. Both you and Divergence helped to change my perspective about trading, I'm sure there are many lurkers here who feel the same.
I have everything crossed for you mate.
