Good trading RMG, almost funded it looks like?! or really close right? Bah, I gave back a tad bit on Thursday's drop, about $500. Made up for it on Friday and Sunday/Monday. That drop was like a freaky trip. I got caught in that volatility with only 3 micros going long and I froze, stopped scaling in and just watched and swung thru/averaged out by Monday morning (today). Feels like today could be another down day but idk about that. Will have to see at US open what "they" do...spike in Vix maybe continues...? Open to all possibilities!
Still on verification to complete. Plenty of time, need to chill take things slowly not to get over exited and blow it up.
2 red days already this week, stopped out multiple times , i guess today is high to low day.

Good to take it slow and wait for the good trades. I have been on TILT, and I need to check myself, before I wreck myself lol. I'm surprised I'm still in the green today.
Churned/washed about $40,000 of P/L during US session, only to end up keeping +$700 ish.
I "graduated" all of a sudden from Micro school to Mini school, but still using micros sometimes, and I revert back to micro when I struggle.

Market is very sentiment driven. Softbank unloading it's huge hedge, tech selloff, and just tonight I hear virus vaccine is put on hold/frozen. So just wait, there WILL be more selling, in my very unprofessional opinion that is! They are trying to pretend it's a "gentle" pullback but I don't fully buy that, and with the leverage we use, that's a big BIG deal!

I got trapped twice today. Thanking my lucky stars I escaped. Should have held the first trade after it ran into profit...2nd trade same deal, was to eager and too heavy, I knew the divergence would eventually work in my favor (cumulative delta and price divergence). I often do best when I scale in, and need to classify my setups better.

Keep grinding it out!

When you see cumulative delta FLAT and price grinding upwards, that tells us the big boys are absorbing little market buy orders and buyers will eventually burn out of orders and it will reverse! KaBOOM! Mix that with this vaccine trial freeze by Astrazenica (spelling lol)....

Quoting Sesamstrasse
{quote} Excellent results Even your winrate is superb. I added Dax to my view, for the european morning what suits to me best. But it´s really thin liquid- no comparisn to ES. Anybody an idea how "thin/thick" FTSE is? (contracts each tick in average) Guido

Thank you Sesamstrasse. Yeah the FTSE I'm not sure how thick it is, as it's not listed on the liquidity list in Stocks & Commodities magazine. But I do know S&P is by far the most liquid in the USA and possibly the world. Usually we get a move around 1am to 3am on our futures here in USA time. So about 8am in Germany approx.

Yeah, micros gives you control to play the swings and step on gas when needed.
I don't know anything about other then chart in front me and getting better at it.

Keep a daily loss limit/session loss limit.
It only takes 1 trade to undo all the hard work done in the past.
Its very hard to stop for the day with loss, but that's the only way to survive.

I was about to pay for the 75k gauntlet and this came.
Anyway can't use sierra charts as they don't support rythmic data any longer.
Top step don't support sierra and their pathetic trailing draw down keeps me thinking. Maybe i will look at micro swing accounts offers no trailing draw down.
Despite their hefty fees, ftmo stands best of all .

Do not worry RMG. Most of the people only want know when to buy , when to sell, at what price buy and sell. That's all!
It's even understandable if we take into account the wold we live in....

In the end what it really matters if you have profits for you and your famiy in this way!

To be generous & share your positive method, it's always a great human sign.
Be proud of yourself!

What's up RMG & Brix?!

Well I've been busy trading, being the mad crazy scalper that I am. Monday $+800, Tuesday $-2800 (OUCH!!!!), and now from Tuesday evening to now +$2225
I'm now scalping up to 20 mini contract positions (200 micros). It's a little more stress but the payoff is great. Still learning and improving, it never ever stops. I'm very happy to get back to "even" for this week.

I'm not a huge Linda R. fan myself.

Currently waiting for a pullback on Mr DOW before I re-enter!

I always tell myself I have a daily loss limit, and then I find myself pushing that limit further! Definitely better to have a loss limit, especially due to the stress.
Sometimes I wonder if I will ever beat the discipline into myself? Hard to "learn" I'd say, just need to "do it" and follow it really.
That is definitely what destroys a lot of traders (both big and small traders).
