A trading journal is one of the most important diaries a trader could ever have, so I've heard. That is why I want to dedicate this thread to posting all my trades, sentiments, thoughts, analysis, charts and any other trading information that I think necessary. In my three years of Forex trading I have realized that my best spells were when I kept a journal. Now, with this journal, I hope to have an infinite run of good performance.
First things first, I trade the system that will be found on this thread;
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=261466
My objectives are very clear:
1. To gain the discipline to follow the system
2. To keep on modifying the system so as to make it better
3. To make at least 100 pips on a weekly basis.
4. To make at least 30% of my account every week
The obvious reason why I have chosen to keep my journal on a forum is to gain from the input of others as well as to help those that I might.
Okay, so I know I sound out of this world. Maybe its true. Maybe! Then again maybe not. Let time decide who among us is dreaming.
I NEED to make 30% every week for the next 52 weeks. I have my reasons and I know its the worst way of going into trading but I have to.
So, lets preview where we are at the moment.Here is a link to my performance track so far.
http://makaveli.mt4live.com (Account closed. $5000 to $7255)
http://machiavelly7.mt4stats.com (started with $6255 from the closed account)
I started this account on 10th October, 2010. Today is 19th October 2010. I have made a gain of USD 3,405.00 in under 2 trading weeks. Thats 68.1% profits in 1 week 1 day. I still have wednesday to friday this week!
Im not here to boast or anything, the reason im giving these figures is to encourage all of you to have an open mind so that we can support each other. Or isn't that the purpose of a forum?
This will be a journey of all my trades based on that system. Please feel free to contribute useful advice along the way.
I will not at any time sell anything to you. I am not in the business of selling signals. I am also a junior (3rd Year) in University doing Media Science. As I have stated earlier, I have started this journal to SHARE.
A few pointers about this Journal.

A few pointers about this Journal.
- I started this thread on the trading Journals section. It has ended up here because I do harbor some commercial interests on my Blog. But those interests come last to trading. Everything here is free and I hope very informative and eye opening.
- I will not be proving calls to buy or sell any security. These are very personal trades and will not be responsible for any losses or profits accrued from following the information I put here.
- I am not a guru. I am a trader just like you. I will let you know what I think, strat my stuff and hope you do too. Its all about a two way thing. Don't just come here and leave without at least putting in some of your thoughts.
- I am not rude by nature. I will never be rude to you no matter how rude you try to be to me. Its a matter of opinion. I will never block anyone from this thread so just to keep it civil guys.
- We are all in Forex to make money. The figures I post here are live account figures that I actually trade. Losses and profits are real. After some loss and I don't post for a while, lemmy get back on my shoes. It can sometimes drain a person.
- My wishes is that we help each other and trade six figure accounts soonest.
Green pipping everyone!
