100 pts range in 1 day as today will not lasts on DAX....
So tomorrow or max thursday they will break this range, probably on the upside. Not sure, cause anything may happens in a night here, you know we live in turbulent times ........

Wow that's great! I bet your buy-in price was amazingly low???
...I had 20 mini dow contracts, $100/per point ...Didn't buy at the best price. Also held 1 of the contracts from last Wednesday which made my psychology worse.
But I definitely CLEANED up today, just wish it wasn't so messy and also - I'm too chicken to hold 20 mini Dow contracts for very long.....
I still am holding 1 mini long.... Target: 27,400 (if I can be patient!)

My real PnL, real cash baby, I'm sweating hah..It was a long day and night...
Never give up survivors...never...


Yeah RMG, I wouldn't be surprised if the week ends up green, it's crazy.

Yes, bought below today's lows and +100 pts right now potential gain, but it's a small position and I will hold overnight looking for +200 tomorrow.
Maybe too much optimistic, but I've just survive to a bad monday morning, so as a survivor I can dream on ......

Good trades to you, to RMG and to me!!

{quote} Honestly, I'm trading better now than I ever have. Still have losing days, but have not had a losing week since leaving FTMO. What are you really paying for? The opportunity to jump through a few hoops? Feels more at home when you have total control, I'm in the camp of let it grow naturally. So I'm back on the futures, staying away from CFDs. I'm a fan of this journal and recognise your talent, just don't believe FTMO is what you need. That thread is active as fck, and making bank for Thomas and friends. But you need to worry about...
I think that is an excellent choice. Well done.

I want to have best of both
Cfd's are best for multiple swing positions as FIFO with futures sucks.
I can't really differentiate between cfd and futures.
Scalping is suited for futures..

Each to their own. I am simply agreeing with the posters comment. I am not judging you.

Hey if you can get both, more power to you! Over here in the USA, big daddy gov't won't let us have CFDs, ugh! We don't get to choose...in the land of Freedom, ironic.

short at the open, covered, long just now price 27,231 ... only 1 micro, since I'm busy today and might have to be away, so I can't leverage this. also the odds on this might not be ideal, need a gap fill still up to 27,600 at some point.

posting my chart of RTH hour of DOW and my monthly PnL for September. Working on slowing down once I hit my monthly target profit. Definitely don't want to give back profits. Maybe 7,000 contracts per month is overtrading a little bit, hah whoops.


I think today the bias is upwards, but choppy. That gap might fill today or tomorrow, just speculation.
If I scoop up more contracts it will be at a lower price most likely. I've got some wiggle room!

Ugh nope, I got too tempted to close the "big" long last night, about 90 points short of the high!!!! Grrr.

But I got a small long just started now, tiny 1 micro. Going to see how this plays out, not risking too much of this fresh profit lol.

2790 trades seems high, but this is how i trade too.
You are building positions and close all at once i believe, if that's the case we need to look at flat to flat trade counts might look lesser.
Not to worry too much as exp. value is still positive.

Yes I think they consider it a "trade" every time you add or remove 1 contract at a time!

Hopefully nobody followed my tiny long earlier! I was going to add on if 27,003 held. I heard the selling going off on my alerts and stepped out of the fire instead. Going to build this long up once I see support hold, maybe tomorrow, or maybe next week perhaps.
Got 3 micros I'm holding.

Closing hour - big maybe... potential bounce at 26584 (Mondays RTH low). But I won't be playing the level, just watching for now.
They Jam it up 200 points, maybe. 26828 closing price huge maybe.

Joined the Profitfarmer's discord group. A decent group of traders sharing live calls and ideas. A great place for learners/ serious traders.
I couldn't participate much as my trading style is different from others.
But, had a great one on one with PF ...taking his guidance to fix my errors.
He really empathised where my focus should be.

Try To Trade 1 hour support and resistance or prior day open high low and close works really good,
made $7000 last week in Nasdaq.
My biggest problem is I don't wait to get full profit.
Always takes big losses.
Patience is key to success.
If have a big loss never try to recover same day If missed the don't run after wait for pull back or wait for the next trade.
If you miss one another waiting on the corner for you.
Over 10 years, I learned my self
Patience, Patience, patience
