so that is May done and dusted...

Overall a good Month for my part time trading. As always when i get back to the pc after work and look at at the charts i normally sigh at the wonderful moves/trades that i missed.... lol

Its all part of the game i guess but is still as frustrating as it has ever been....

EU m1/m5 is still my bread and butter combination and along with the h1/h4 pairs i watch (which as usual i need to watch more closely) i have added some m5/m15 charts as well. I am in a priviliged position of testing a great tweak on the alert indy which is making all these charts easier to watch.

We all know that Steve is a full time worker and part time coder and his coding to do list is very long but when the alert indy is fully tested and released you will not be disappointed... i know us testers aren't.

For now though i will still only post on here the EU m1/m5 trades/results so the newer traders amongst us can compare..

So to May results, M1 ticked over like it always seems to, H1 was again poor due to lack of attention on my part rather than lack of good set ups and the m5 charts were added half way through the month......

Heres to a pip filled June

Very Nice Very Nice!

Thank you for sharing your stats. I look forward to this day anxiously every month. Well done mate. You've surpassed many fund managers IMHO> (wd) (wd) (hug) :-bd

You've surpassed many fund managers IMHO

I think this is something we all lose sight of. For some reason in the forex world the expectation seems to be that if you aren't doubling your account every 5minutes then the system is no good and it is on to the next. If we look at what return we can get from our savings or other investments there is very little that can touch this system.

Thanks Immy and another great month Grant well done (are you not trading tomorrow?)

Hey Richard,

Thanks for sharing Grant
If I could achieve 14% consistently like you have this month, I would be a very happy person I have only achieved this once with my older trading methodology (which happened to be April).

I love how everyone is showing their work. It keeps everyone that bit more focused and helps when someone takes a not quite so good trade when people offer their kind and unemotional suggestions.

I have been a part of many forums and this is honestly the only one that I have ever seen that provides support for everyone by all in the forum. There are no contests to see who is better etc, no egos and it is just such a great thing so see.

No wonder there are so many happy people here, with a community of like-minded people all looking out for each other :-bd

So May has now finished in everyones world not just mine (rofl) (rofl)

Attached are the revised May totals...

H1 and m5 had an incorrect formula, so the previous pics showed the wrong % gains as i had 1% risk instead of 0.5%.....

cheers
