My Trading Journal - Staying consistent

Hello everyone,

i create this journal in Order to stay focused and as my personal road documentations - if I have the feeling that someone is watching me I will be able to control my emotions better.

How do i trade?
Well I use a setup that is somehow coming from Trading Made Simple (TMS), but I also learned a lot from Strats Thread (https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...s-free-trading ).

I currently trade on the 15min TF and i use the TDI Indicator, as well as a SMA (5).
At the moment I stick to 1:3 RR, although profits would be better if i keep that dynamic, having a fixed R:R helps me to achieve a better execution-consistency.

At the moment I also mainly trade the DOW.

Let's see where this goes.

Todays trade on the DOW 15min Timeframe:

Entry after bar close at "1"

SL was at "0"

and TP was hit at "4" for a 1:3 RR

Today on the DAX (GER40)

Entry is at "1", SL at "0" (Blue horizontal line) and TP was at "4" - hit for 1:3 RR.

Yesterday on the DOW (15min TF)

Entry is at "1", SL at "0" and TP was at "4" - SL hit for -1 R

Today DOW 15min

BUY
Entry is at "1", SL at "0" and TP was at "4"

Priced turned just in sight of my TP, moved SL to a little over BE; got stopped out with a small profit.

Will probably look for a short entry now, but current candle is too big (SL would be too wide)
