Stopped out at break-even, should have taken my 10 pips on this scalp but no worries.

Hi Bleek, I just read through your thread, nice results!

Just started my own method and journal yesterday and would be estatic to get a fraction the results you've acheived.

I look forward to following your continued progress.

Thanks dude, I've learnt not to question myself and to avoid over-analysis.

I literally spend 10 seconds on the chart looking, not touching or adding anything, and place my order or position... I rely 100% on my own perception and that is it. Ultra simple.

Nice! Are you using price action at all? When you're looking at a chart what is your own perception based on? I know you mention trading momentum, does that mean you are going with the current trend on the 5M?

To be honest I've looked at PA over and over and it's still pie in the sky, it doesn't always work, even the so called 'A+' trades which are few and far between.

I used a plain chart and just take trades based on what I perceive is happening at the current moment in time, I don't care about the trend, long or short term.

I guess I'm using my own form of PA, in my head? It really is hard to explain what I do, I was tempted to create a video and stick it on youtube of my live trading and explain my thought process as I go. I am extremely busy at the moment so it's not something I could easily do at work and I don't trade outside of UK/Euro hours.

Sorry I've not been updating for a week but I've been having 'woman troubles' and it's put a skew on things.

It goes to show that psychology plays an important part in trading as last week I suffered to losing trades in one day, I took a day out and returned to form a day later.

I'll grab the results later when I get chance and post them up, needless to say I still made a 'handsome' gain, just a shame there was only 3 days of trading - made a lot up on the last day (was a bit naughty with my lot sizes but my head was clearer)!

Rocky week with the women but that's behind me today, so to make up for the lack of activity (I have been trading but not updating) I've gone out 'guns blazing' today.

I've broken my rules but it's Friday.

1.5344 +49 ($980)

1.5366 +27 ($540)
1.5373 +20 ($400)

Someone buy me a drink, I think that constitutes a bloody good morning!

Hi,

I would also be very interested in any more light you can shed on your trading style/methodology/perception. I would welcome a video or just some charts with your commentry as you entered and exited trades.

Kind regards,

Work has gone mental, business partner was taken ill so I've run out of time to trade ever day, instead I've raised my lots by the number of days I've missed.

Yes, I'm mad.

Filled yesterday (28/04)

Gold - Long 5 contracts (CFD) 1164.0 took profit at 1168.1 = +41 ($2,050)


Today I traded 5x 1.5 (7.5) lots and just about blew my pants off in an hour.

Filled (29/04)
GBP/USD - Short 1.5199 / TP 1.5161 = +38 ($2,850)
GBP/USD - Long 1.5202 / TP 1.5244 = +42 ($3,150)

I probably won't be able to trade any more today or tomorrow, just too busy.

So I ditched the women that was causing me so much trouble and went on a date last night that was excellent, very positive mood today, must show in trading right?

Filled
GBP/USD - Short 1.5374 / came out at B/E (not sure why because re-entered straight away below) = B/E
GBP/USD - Short 1.5376 / TP 1.5355 = +21 ($420)
GBP/USD - Long from prior TP 1.5355/TP prior entry 376 = +21 ($420)


What could be more simple than that, done for the day!
