Hi Traders
Today is a quiet monday for me, I have no good sync on ALL my charts hence there isnt any setup that worth sharing. Not a bad situation here as most markets been choppy. Although a breakout may happen anytime soon after some consolidation, but a choppy period may last longer than expected also and thats when and where casualties build up quietly and sometimes unnecessarily.
All i can do is make sure i follow my plan vigilantly and stay healthy mentally. and of course physically. A trader i know he emphasizes a lot on personal fitness, of which he claims is part of his edge.
Hi Traders
I have taken a couple of positions today:
Short Natgas early today (my time) and riding it all the way and still on going
Short Crude with very small risk ( rare for me also) and i jack up with 5lots, hovering near my entry now, lets see:
shorted Gold, with some tight risk also but didnt work out very well
Looking at Euro i might have missed it but again that was during my working hour and i just dont have the luxury to watch my chart frequently/extensively
for the rest, i am looking for soybean for potential Long setups.
Hi Traders
I realised i used old picture for my crude position. please revisit today crude picture to have a better look at my entries. and of course follow up my crude trade management:
i also took 3 shorts on ES
and 2 shorts on NQ
lets see how it play out...
I am out from natgas so my excel look like this now:
Hi Traders
Sorry I was down with gastro on Monday. Didnt even bother look at my screen. Used teamviewer on mobile to have a quick check and didnt have much to do.
Today I have so far done one trade, shorted Euro a while ago:
other than that I am watching soybean for a potential Long but doesnt quite happen to my expectation just yet:
Hi Trader
I have nothing much to share for today plan. I got no position what so ever now. So i decided to share what i have missed as i was sick and i slack off losing focus to my daily homework. A good way to learn and remind and prepare myself for a better next year.
also, you can pay attention to the similarity of the setups.
1. both h1 and h4 trading same side of the box ( either both above or both below )
2. both h1 and h4 the navigator have to be turning the same direction as per the trend ( easy cue is green color tip mean turning up for Long or red for short )
3. it has to be a new breakout by my definition. (which is the box with first green after a series or at least one red bar)
4. the h1 navigator has to have the momentum in line with the trend direction
5. by using low of breakout bar the risk can not be excessive, meaning to say if the breakout bar is a very huge bar, i will pass.
Hi Trader
Sorry i went missing last night. I was not feeling well and i have not seen any particular setup that i would trade so i didnt post up anything.
Today i still can not find much of the chart that have oppoprtunity for me except i missed Crude Oil to the short side. I have been missing signal and trade lately as i was really busy at work. Euro to the long side was the biggest miss.
i kinda getting slow as we approach december. usually i trade smaller in early December and stop all trading by last 2 weeeks. December been always losing month for me so this year i will not trade much in December and if i do, it will be only during the first 2 weeks. after which i will start to do some review and then spend more time to practice meditation, then finalise my trading plan for 2018 if there is any change to be made.
if i do not show up for few days, that would be the case where i dont hve much trade setup to share. if you have any question or suggestion or comment you wish to share with me, feel free and i am happy to have any discussion.
