Swing system development journal

Hi all,

I have decided to put up this journal to keep me motivated in the continual development of my swing trading system.I will attach my FF explorer once I start trading on demo.


Hope to finally open a live account after 100 trades if everything goes well.


Regards.

Trading will be mainly done on mobile phone while at my job.

timeframe is 1H.

good luck

thanks ...I am still waiting for a valid set up.The system has a low win % but big payoff.

shorted EURUSD @ 1.3067 SL 50 pips.

still holding USDJPY trade.....it has grown to a very nice profit. I have tightened my SL.

closed my USDJPY coz of the weekend.

I am so far impressed with the ability of mobile charting as the tools I need to trade are all available. Even my long-term system can be fully traded on mobile as accurately as on a big screen. Though I have to say it's slower and I'm keeping an eye on slippage.

cheers.

so far a great start. My desire is for a system that I can trade anywhere;at job,park, traffic etc.

I look for trade opportunities at 1hr intervals and its not stressful for me and I can still do my job effectively.so no raised alarms at my work place.


I also want to test myself, to see how I cope with losing streaks that are common to this kind of systems.

USDJPY still powering higher. I closed my trade for fear of losing profits. This is why I started this journal to note my bad habits.

I am trying to stop predicting the market and to be a more relaxed trader.http://s7.postimage.org/qmt70v6sb/IM...114_090235.jpg
