Thanks for sharing your trades.
You had a MFE of 270+ points for this trade. That's almost a daily ATR. Just wondering whether you have any rules for taking partial profits or scale outs. If not, whether you tested your results and found any value in it?
Just curious as I'm also facing similar issues with my all in and all out methodology.
Well thank you @Narcissus
I am sharing my trades here nearly all in time before the trade is starting with all my data I am sharing here as well. You know my entry and my exit time before the start. I am not aware of ANY journal here on fio to provide the same service.
My system had begun 2008 and was published here on the platform 2012.
So I do not invest time into "watching unfold the DAX". Therefore I am not sitting at the screen - as I have other business at hand.
Anyway - your mentioned Monday trade could have been a perfect gainer. As you can see from my post - I lost even 8 points on it...
But that is collateral - and saves me a lot of time to not stare at any screen.
Finally my results are sort of proof of the pudding - aka counting the plus points
See my trade of today...
Remember, I was providing the same service here in FIO, including stoploss.
Not so successful, and having a pause due to 'normal work', but the service is there Will continue later this year.
Thanks @Deetee - of course I do remember. Just summing up the actual situation.
Most happy to hear that you will resume your journal soon again.
Good trades!

PS: Is my perception right that there are not many active journals here on fio?
