Obviously I'm rusty... I will now go back and trade the dozen or so market replays I have saved and
try to get a feel back.
I can now pull the trigger with live money easily.... (maybe too easily!! )
I will now save up the $10k Mike says is minimum and trade correctly. I didn't want to blow through a account learning. That's why I started small. The only thing I learned from it is the mental edge of losing money.
My Technique needs to be refinded and hanging around this place will help with that.
I came in with $2K and left with $1K. I fought for 6 months. I need a sharper edge.
Call it tuition. I will read all the books I have wanted to. And practice.
I will still post my practice trades and hopefully get some guidance.
So I read this guy's blog as well. He is the ONLY guy I've ever seen that posts his real brokerage statement. How do I know its real, because we use the same clearing house and mine looks the same. Its true, he is very experienced and to my knowledge has been trading the same system for years with only slight mods every now and then. He knows his stats, his edge and has money management down really well. So yes it is possible. I am encouraged by his blog as I know I can do it too by just being disciplined. It is harder with a small account. But you must have 100% faith in your edge. If not, stop trading.

I'm giving range bars a swing. I really like them.
Using an EMA with some Fib lines, along with SR as my main guide.
Trying to really get in tune with PA on these two markets...
Anyone know of a solid EMA that will give me the best cues possible???
I went ahead and moved up to NT7 since I'm revamping my system anyway. Solid so far..
Will start posting some charts for entry / exit advice when I settle completely on my rig..
thanks to all for the help in my journey... I'm re-juiced. I'm filling up my trading account
quickly and should be back in the game in a couple of months with a decent sized account.
a whole topic in itself, you have fishnet indicator made out of multiple MAs, bigmike CDA made out of some MAs, MAs with fib numbers setting seems popular then again 20, 40, 50, 100, 200 are also popular. I also have a collection of MAs setting of some weird number. So what to make of them all? Just pick a number you like and go for it, everybody starts with 20 I think.
