Hi all, do you use this site to log down all your trades? Because I want to be a serious trader and part of it requires me to log down my trades. So i am wondering if there are any websites or applications that you recommend?

Hi Bryan, you can log your trades in your own thread in this forum or using an excel sheet or interface your trading platform to the site live to automatically post your trades and results. Good luck.

Hi Majd, may I ask what's your trading style? Are your SLs standard at -50 pips?

Nice profits you have so far as well! Keep it up!

{quote} Hi Majd, may I ask what's your trading style? Are your SLs standard at -50 pips? Nice profits you have so far as well! Keep it up!
Thanks Feekee, I stick to the basics to be honest:

1. Daily trading
2. Candlesticks, trend lines, Bollinger bands and slow stochs
3. I try to stick to a high R:R ratio; 1:2-1:4
4. Cutting losses short (usually around 50 pips and max 70 pips). In some cases I do not take trades because I can't afford the SL margin.
5. Letting profit run until I see a reversal candle when trending and targeting range boundaries when ranging

Because I do cross-days trading I do not have a high wins:losses ratio (1:1 at best) but the high R:R makes it up for me most of the times.
