This is a new journal im starting based on Johnedoe's 77 method. You can check out his journal for the entry and exit rules

This is a live account and I will update daily

I Give all the credit to Johnedoe for this system but Im not following the rules exactly. Im letting my head get in the way.

anyway, this is just a place to put my trades

I must admit, Like i said, I let my head get in the way, could have had more pips on the last two days but not a bad first week of 09

I have the same sentiment as letting some of it get away from me. That said...what a good start mate! Keep up the good work and here's a profitable 2009 for you!

i use ibfx. he uses oanda. i also got in very late on the 13th. i shouldn't have gone in because i was so late getting in. - NO POWER - very mad for about 7 hrs. but when lights came back on i got into the trade anyway and lost the 100 pips. if i would have gotten in at start of candle I would have made a nice profit.

also i don't follow the exit rules of his, or mine for that matter.

mainly i set my trades and don't look at computer again until after start of US market. if by then im up a good profit. ill get out. ill let my head get in the way then. prob b better off to just set the trade and leave it alone until next day!!! but i just can't seem to do that

really i guess, im just using his system to enter trades and gettin out at own discretion. sorry but that is how i do it.

any other q's, pm me because i only come to this thread once a day usually, but im on FF most of the time

how did you find your exit ? the initial stop is 100 pips for the first day - but how goes it on if the position is in +++ in the evening of the first day - whats the next step ?

Just at my own discretion. I have a 200 - 250 tp set but if it doesn't hit and I'm up a pretty good $ and I feel like this is good enough for the day then I get out. Nothing technical about it. Just gut feelings. Stoploss is always 100. Reason for the -103 is just slippage

Hi Jtmoore007,

Great start. I also have been following John Doe's journal for quiet some time and used off and on. I am demoing this month this system seriously with slight variation and got good results so far. I am thinking to try one more month before I start live with of course smaller lot size. I see John Doe has this journal for over a year and I just wonder whether his results are in live or in demo trading. Any way, good luck and I will keep an eye on your journal too.

Thanks,

FX_California

I also use Oanda account like John Doe. I open the position about 8PM PST (Oanda daily candle open time) and close it around 8 AM in the next morning irrespective of the position. The reason for that is my personal problem. I don't want to trade from work. So, while going to work, I close the position about 8 AM from my cell phone. I use 200 pips TP and 100 pips SL. This gave me good results at least this month. Also, I don't hold. I close and open in the evening even though it has same signal from last day.
