I have not updated for a while, had busy time and could not trade as much as I would / should have.
I had some larger negative trades and a significant drawdown, mainly because of not following my own rules & system :nono2: but then I managed to recover, by doing nothing special, just simply wrote on the corner of my laptop screen:
"My own trading rules are GOOD ENOUGH, nothing fancy or messing around needed"
Achievement update:
Target set 26 January 2016:
Until early June, 4.5 months, +28 dax-points per trading day, sums up to total +2443 dax-points.
This would match doubling my trading account 9 June 2015 - 9 June 2016.
Results, 26 February, 1 month passed:
Total result +461 dax-points, which is in average +22 points per trading day.
Behind target, but still quite OK first month, mainly thanks to recovery this week.
Target for remaining time: +29 points per trading day.
May still well be possible, IF I just follow the rules, maintain focus, keep fear & greed in control, use enough position size when the expectation is well positive, and stay on sidelines when expectation is negative.
