Daily Trade #1 : EA long + 24 pips. This is just a little trade I was following to remove the rust from my fingers. Closed because the week end is knocking.

Have a great week end

ciao

Week1 Test Quick Results

I'm not sure what to call this method.....I don't want to confuse this with the '5 - 15 Strategy' that we already have. Any suggestions??

Below are the results of this weeks effort. I am only trading 4 pairs and the PA is much the same as it was last week, so that may make these quick results all the more impressive. However, this week I have been able to trade most of the Tokyo session and most of the London session too, and even a bit of the NY session, so the results in terms of total pips gained may be misleading.

What is interesting, but might also be misleading at this stage, is the number of trades taken.....12 in all. Also, in this test I'm paying attention to the average SL, which I didn't do in the last test. You could go back to the PDF and work out the SL stats of the M15 test if you want.

Anyway....here are the quick results:


Number of Trades Taken: 12
Win / Loss rate: 12 / 0
Biggest single trade gain: +91
Biggest single loss: -
Nett profit: +546pips
Average pips / day : 109.2
Average SL: 29.5

WOW. Great results RJ. Did you mention the pairs you were trading...?? I'll have a look back. Just want to go over these 12 trades and LEARN!! It will be interesting to see if I get 12 trades or more/less than 12 trades. Excellent results anyway!

Great trading RJ. My average pips / day is 3.8 for last week. That alone shows my self control needs more work!!! I spoilt my week chasing trades on Friday that just were not viable. Patience for correct setup is all that is required.

RJ could you please confirm that it's EU, EA, UJ and GJ is being tested......same as last test. I would assume it is but you know what happens when you assume.....

Thanks

The pairs traded last week....and from here on in are: EA, GJ, EJ, EU.

Because I can see only 4 pairs on my 2 monitors, I decided that this is the best thing for me. I used to have 3 profiles, so I could watch more pairs but it is apparent that there is nothing to be be gained by doing this (for me). I found that I was not able to focus properly on so many pairs, so I settled on one profile with 4 pairs. The pairs chosen may change over time, depending on volatility, but for the next 3 weeks I will stick with these 4.

Have to remember also that last week I spent a lot....a LOT....of hours trading which may not be realistic to many depending on your time zone and other priorities in life.

OK there is a change.....thanks for that. I'm thinking there is going to be enough opportunities in those 4 pairs anyway.

Yes, I just dropped the UJ pair and added the EJ instead. Generally speaking, as I only ever have 2 unprotected trades running at the same time, my choice seems to favour EA and GJ as number 1 and 2.......although I will take the fist trade that presents itself of course.

Edit: I'll try and show a few live trades this week, which may (or may not lol) be helpful!

You are truly inspiration to us all. When I see your results, I'm encouraging myself that it really can be done, despite constant doubts coming from people around me.

Two time frames "merged".....maybe 515 system?

It's something that we all battle through at some stage ... similar but opposite situation, ended the week with some good trades but only a tiny profit because of entering trades early in the week that shouldn't have been entered - were not HPT.

We just have to keep reminding ourselves ... HPT only!
1 pip at a time ... if the entries are strong, the rest will follow ...

Hi all,

at the beginning of this year I developed a customizable trading journal which works in Excel and I would like sharing it with you.
I spent time on this tool because one of my accounts doesn't work on MT4 and I can't interface it with Myfxbook or similar softwares; besides I needed a tool to simulate trades in backtest and analyze data.

The usage should be pretty easy (sorry if I didn't spend time to develop the usability and readability of this tool).
Once you have customized the lists in the "tracking & analysis" folder (3) you have just to fill in the cells in the "trade journal" folder where the top label is yellow (1). By clicking the cell a list menu (2) you can select the field.

The journal calculates on behalf of you some statistics which can help to monitor your good/bad trades and understand where to work to improve.

For the time being I am working on other projects therefore I am available to answer your questions but please don't ask me to improve or modify it

I hope this can help you to improve your performances.

Enjoy it!

wiz

Wow Wiz! This excel sheet is a gold mine! The customization seem endless! Thanks for sharing

You're right there , antantnz. I have paper on my keyboard I must read before doing anything telling me the setup, the love of pivots, sychronizing M5 and M15, not changing rule for any reason, so how do I do those stupid trades! Who would have thought that it could be so hard just to behave!! That adds up to frustration. This week I will stick to rules. If I don't make any pips by the end of week, I will be awarding myself big fat medal for being good.......

Thanks too Wiz, anyone who can spend hours making something useful like this on computer should also be awarded medal!! I fall somewhat below RJ when it comes to spreadsheets and he is always saying how he loves them yeah right!

Im finding it so much easier to stay away from bad trades now that I dont candle watch. (RJs ant on the floor)
Just focusing on the Matrix and use S/R - DP - BRN and candles for exits
So much less noise and less stress
Only trading from London open too where the liquidity and volatility are up.
No point getting on the surfboard if there arent any waves

Edit: less pairs too.......got 4 or 5 max at 1 time (EA, GJ, EJ, EU, AU)
