This week has been incredibly frustrating but as you say Grant, only take the trades you are 100% happy with. For me that is 2 trades on M1 both of which were positive giving me 16pips (1.2%).

Re: Grants Journal - Trade Management Document

Unread post by damasc »

Hi Grant,

Am finding it hard to catch up and read all the posts, so please forgive me if this has been addressed earlier.

I would like to read your Trade Management document, but only have Word2000 and cannot read a .docx document. I'm refering to the one attached to the first post in your journal. Is it, or a later version, available anywhere here as a .doc document or pdf?

Thanks,
Margaret

Afternoon everyone,

managed some chart time from just after NY openm to London close today but still no obvious set ups screaming trade me, so again no trades.... sigh

dot analysis for the session attached, the last set up 1 up dot at 1556 (UK) in hindsight could have been traded but i erred on the conservative side..

Yes Grant, the last blue dot was the reversal trade with M5 trend just about to reverse and breaking above an M5 AIMS Level above the red line. This was shows as setup 1 with a stale AIMS Waves yet close to zero line. I took it and exited for 15pips, way too early but good for me!

cheers

Morning Everyone,

Was stuck at work last night so apologies for the late posting...

Managed a trade for the first time is 8 trading days during the NY session, it paid a rent of -2 but at least i saw a set up.... lol

PDF attached for the trade details...

Screenshot attached is for my Feb results. Total trades was down by about 75% on a "normal" month. Can't be too disappointed as i still managed to out perform my savings accounts annual return..

Here's hoping for a marvellous March.....

cheers
