Hi everyone,
The goal issue is interesting.....yes I have a goal and it's a weekly one: 500 pips that I'm achieving at about 60% of weeks....trading for living you need a goal and a plan....it's been very well said here be4...
I have 2 reasons for my weekly goal:
1) I don't like trading on Friday....Big Boyzs in the City like to quit early when they had a good week.....they just need some time to spend all their money LOL.....
2) I'm nearly a professional (playing main events of professional poker tournaments) Texas Holdem tournaments poker player (already won some in casinos in France and Vegas....)....so I need time too, as usually I don't play poker on my trading days....my poker week starts on Friday.
Trading mechanically 100% according to the plan is another issue....and I don't want to be long....so I'll just say I trade according to my plan about 90% of time....for the other 10% I achieve better results trading differently than trading with my plan
Last but not least, I trade London and half NY, observe 30 pairs and trade only those showing the best trending potential...I choose them every morning.....based on my own formula.
So I take the best of my system, similar to Eval's, which shows best results in trending markets...
Now time for entertainment and poker
Good week-end for everyone
