MY Journey's Journal

I consider a good idea to start posting my trades, in the future time I will look back and see my own evolution/growth as a trader. Good journey.
I am trading two different accounts:
a) initial balance U$ 3,987.95
current balance U$ 4,260.55
openning date 08/05/28

b) initial balance U$ 9,987.89
current balance U$ 10,549.86
openning date 08/05/06

I trade only fiber and risk no more than 5% of the initial balance.

Well, here begins my journey's record.

I've got a buy order @5740, market is @5790 but I am waiting for a retrace to get in.

Market had been making higher low/highs, last entry was @5700 and stopped out @5771 now I see 5700 as a very strong number so maybe 5740 is a good entry.

I'll be watching what market does

wish you luck

Thanks man, I appreciate it. Good luck to you too.

Thanks

I shrunk my 50pips TSL (from 5752 to 5771) and got out at 5771 but now I confirm that NOT to follow the plan and use my discretion for exits, is usually the wrong decision. Market rose to 5824.

My buy order is still @5740 waiting for a retrace.

After the big upward movement last friday, while I was stopped out few hours before, the most difficult part to accept is when I do not finish my trade with the swing...gggrrrr! If I lost I'm OK because it's my risk and before I enter my trade I am able to lose, if a trade runs without me I'm still OK, but.......if I got out of a winner and it goes further.........then I have a really bad time.

My emotions got shake because of that, I can handle anything else.

I want to say thanks to FF and its moderators, Merlin and the rest that I am missing, thank you for make this great forum come true. I have learnt lot of constructive things that have made a big change in my mind as a trader.

Thank you all in FF.

Now, changing the page after that tough strike to my emotions, my buy order is at 5750, it is a good price for me to get in the market.

50% fib re is at 5800, TL is 5764 but after such a quick move I don't want to catch the falling knives so I prefer to place my order bellow, 5750 is a strong support so if market shows me 5800 is stronger than 5750 I will move my order.
I 'm not going to jump into the market, I will wait for it to come to me, by now, I am a buyer at 5750.

Patience is paid with cash!!!

I'm moving my order to 5800, 5750 ans 5700 seems to be difficult to get reach by the market under current circumstances, but off course, market is always right.

Will see if 5850 wich is few pips above 38% fib re is a good price.

Yes it was!!! I miss it but now looking for another good entry. This market is gaining momentum and strenght, from now on will see an entry at 38% fib re

I have placed an order @5900 and it was picked up tuesday afternoon. 5900 was just above 38% fib re, PA shows me some important momentum, that's why I boght fibber there. 50 pips Sl and 65 pips TSL. Every 100 pips will add 50%, same SL for all of them.
