Phew! NFP almost gave me the jitters but the SLs still held through

Already 600+ pips (now 1000 +) acculmulated so far, if the trend continues i should still be able to reach the weekly goal before the week runs out....

Inspite of the mistakes i made and some good trades i missed, overall i was still able to achieve the weekly goal.

Due to a friendly request, i would be posting my results every week, this week i will attach the .pdf version of the Statement but pull it down by next week Monday (don't wanna be sued for infractions), after that i would adopt the format below:

Balance (Previous Week): $4034.39

Balance (This Week): $5123.24

Net Profit: $1088.85

Equity: $5123.24

PS: Next week i would be experimenting with some power levels in addition to this system. Expect the unexpected!

Hi guys, sorry i could not post anything this week. I decided not to post each and every trade anymore since it's too tedious (trading nine pairs already). Good News is that using my 'power levels' i was able to bring my account to $6,000 last week Monday but ended up at $5,000 by Tuesday bcos i traded a standard lot per pair (7 won, 2 lost). Sue me, my money management on that one was whacked. I tried using these levels again hoping to get back to $6,000 but got margin called (thank God for that orelse my account would have been wiped out).

Since this is a journal, i intend to portray everything that happens so i might feel accountable to trade with discipline. I have decided to stick with the same method that works and maintain the 1,000 pips a week trade instead of looking for the fast(er) bucks. Looking back at this week's trade i saw we had a trending week and could easily have made 3000 pips riding all the pairs like i did last week but anyway i am glad i can live to trade another day (or week).

So i still wouldn't be posting my trades like i did earlier but after every week i promise to summarise it here.

So for this week:

Balance:$3,740.33

Profit/Loss: -$1,382.91

Equity: $3,670.33

Hi dudes,

I have decided to come up with a plan 'cos when one fails to plan he plans to fail. I hope to take my $5,000 (almost) to $55,000 by the end of November trading my improved method.

With 1,000 pips per week (which could actually be more but based on an average in the worst case scenario) which translates to $1,000 per week, i hope to reach an aggregate of $10,000 by the end of August, then trade

- 0.4 lots per pair to reach $20,000 by the end of September
-0.6 lots per pair to reach $35,000 by the end of October
-0.8 lots per pair to reach $55,000 by the end of November.

Each additional 0.2 lots in this case brings in an additional $5,000.

Hopefully when the New Year comes it would now be 1 standard lot per pair.

I hope to reach this goal before the speculated time if the market keeps trending like this.

See y'all when i get there.

Hi all,

Sorry about the long spell of silence, well i am back to demo again after successfully blowing my account halfway. Well life goes on, i am still trading this system but had to make some changes here and there with some filters to keep me out of the whipsaw trades. You can always check out how i am doing on my mt4stats page (link below). Let's see how i do on this demo account before going live...yet again!

PS: Ignore the trades i took on this account before 17:20 on the 28th...was just test running a scalping system on it then.
