    So their we where. 3 against a 100. They where the toughest 3 blokes we ever fought. It's the best excuse I can think of for having not attended my journal. Truth is I just got sick of writing why I never took a trade. I've broken the mould tonight. I've taken a trade. I took one and bailed...

    Signing out, I did skip one trade which would have stopped me out anyway, should I have taken it? Maybe that's a sign to close my charts and start a fresh for the start of the month. Markets are moving in an unfamiliar way tonight. Bring on March. Nautical23

    Clearly the last night again did not pay off. Back again, lets hope fear does not get the better of me tonight. Nautical23

    Think I'll go to bed now, can't play the probabilities if I don't take 95% of the trades that contribute to it. I'll be back tommorrow night for a full nights trading or at least until I hit target. Nautical23

    Well here we are again. Clearly as to my last post I did not make a trade. I have traded maybe 3 nights since that last post and have not logged in to update my journal. Admittedly one night I was cactis and fell asleep at the helm there. But overall I should have taken a trade at some point...

    That does look very interesting. I've googled the Iron Condor too see what it's about. Consistantly reliable profits is what I seem to gather from it. I do miss sleep. Its punishing these early stages of trading. I know I have a profitable strategy, the problem with it is me. If I just traded...

    Well, clearly last night, fear got the better of me. Sleeping in didn't help my cause either. Tonight I was on time. However, I've seen many a trades go by as I sit and doubt that they will work. Had I of taken the first trade, I'd v been up 12% straight off the bat. Had I've missed that one, a...

    So here I am again. Slept in and missed an important part of the market that I predominantly trade, the first hour. Great start to the journal. As soon as I opened my charts, a trade had appeared, I was slow to respond, no actually, I just sat here and watched it, some what pi#!$%ed at sleeping...

    Interesting, I'll be honest I'm not sure what I'm looking at. I haven't been educated in credit spread options before. Nor have I seen a dashboard before. I just trade basic buy and sell ER2 futures trading. And I don't have a mentor or educator to pass on any of this kind of information. I've...

    Hello Russell traders, I am planning to keep a thread of Russell trades to keep me honest, as I am just going from sim trading to live trading now. In sim I make a killing, in live I find it difficult to take a trade. This forum should help keep me accountable. Anybody who is also a Russell...

    Tape reading Thanks JD, Thanks for your guidance. Thats what I'm looking for. I'm currently trading the es and watching the time and sales at the same time. Watching the time and sales go wizzing down throws me off a little. But with lots of time and practice and the use of some off those...
