Could not hold to 3375, since price didn't touch 3400 today.

Another day another recovery..at least up for the week. Shit, trading sure can test your stress level.

This week is gonna be tough since i'm on the road (california) for work.

so today, i woke up late, had interruptions in internet connection, and was too greedy to take profits.

My method is all about entry sequence. If i'm late on an entry, i go through 'drawdown' period before i catch a good trade. SO it's important that i start trading on time and also if i'm late, then i need to adjust accordingly (which i didn't do too well today)

but anyways, i was able to catch a good trade at end of session to pull me back up.

hilmy83, you're great as always. How much did your portfolio begin? I wanna see how much return you can do in such a short period (as I know).

well i've started trading in 2007 and didn't make money till 2010

i've added and withdraw periodically since then. But my last deposit would've been at at 14k mark.

nice equity curve....

as for me, am more of a swing trader...so the trades take long to setup and the profit targets aslo take long to get reached...am not as active as yu Hilmy.

But yu are doing a great job on your scalping

Hy Hilmy! I've been looking at this thread for a while......really impressed with your results. I also trade of the 1 min chart. 1 thing that amazes me in your statements, is that you always recover your losses no matter how big they are, with your last trade. Could you explain your strategy a little deeper? Just curious how much stress tollerance should one have to lose 42% of the account in 1 day, and then make it up in 1 single trade.
thanks!

Took profit early. I always seem to come up short of my trading plan.

THe last few episodes of 'oh shit, i've lost everything that i made' forced me tothink about my trading mindset.

I need to be flexible between gunning for homeruns and also being satisfied with 3-5 pip profit/loss on some days.

my strategy is mostly based on breakout. You can see from my win/loss ratio i don't always catch the right ones. In fact,you can easily replace my strategy with any MA cross and get the same win%.The point you need to focus on is how you exit. Like i said before, i look for swing H/L, congestion, round numbers; it's always different from trade to trade.
You just got to spend time learning this one market and understanding its moves.
by the way, I try very hard not NEVER ever,ever think about the money. It's a little ironic in this field. It would be stressful as hell if you think of $ performance.IT's something i am still working on..

Hi Hilmy,

Could you tell us when (date and time) you got into that last trade please? I'm trying to understand your mindset when you see these amazing trades where you break the bank during recovery. (You only showed when the trade closed for $17K+ profit). Would like to know your entry date/time for last big trade. THANK YOU!!!

Anyway i have a long @ 3637 SL 3619 TP over 3700, hopefully it'll hit by next euro session
