I know. If I fail with this project it´s because my lack of dicipline!
I want to trade all the time, it´s really sick... I try to control my self and not taking those trades, Less is more!!!!

And I level up again =)
Made a nice short Entry @ 1.3501 with a TP @ 1.3471 = 30 easy pips!
Account has now grown 58% and I enjoy the ride =)
If this works I will start a new thread in the systems section =)

I´m NOT proud about how I trade!
The last one was down -100pips before it turned around into profit. I really need to accept the small losses! This one turned out great, but I might have a margincall next time, who knows..
Need to work on that!

are you giving details as you enter trades or a while after you enter ? because there is no way of verifying the trades being actual.

Hi man, your trading style is similar to mine, due to the fact i also hope to capture 20 pips of a trade and i too trade of short times frames with moving averages.
My trades usually have a +20 take profit and -20 stop, i calculate the trade size to be as close to 1% risk as possible, meaning 1 succesfull trade a day is 1% growth a day. How much % do you risk per trade?
Keep up the work, rob

I know now that you have "NOT" given up your day job. Thank goodness you had your day job to fall back on when you blew your accounts to zero.

Come back in a few years and start this journal over when you have some real trading knowledge under your belt..

Jeremy
