Jet's Personal Trading Journal

I’ll be posting my personal statement here. Hope to stay consistent.

First post.


Are you going to share how u trade?

Check this out:

What are your expectations?

Hi,

I’m new to forex so I’m interested in the thread that you are starting. Is your journel a way to teach someone like me how to trade? Or are you just going to post your trading accounts here?

BTW, the link you gave me, what is it used for?

Appreciate if you can answer my questions! Thanks.

I am posting my results on several different sites hoping to start a discussion which will help me with continuously keeping good track of my account balance.

I can’t answer questions about trading on all of the different forums I post on so I am not planning on answering questions pertaining to the way I trade.

If you insist on more info about my trading, PM me and I may give you more. :slight_smile:

Thank you for your interest. My journal is not meant to teach anyone anything as it is an experiment more than anything else.

The link I posted says something about what reasonable currency trades should expect as returns on your trading.

Made no trades Sunday. Market is a bit skippy.

Why spend the time posting on various sites INSTEAD of just having a blog?

You must be up to something… :stuck_out_tongue:

Hehehe,

To clarify to anyone that will be posting now or in the future along these lines: I am not selling anything.

I am trying to see how long I can keep posting. I am hoping that posting in my own thread will discipline me to keep a record of what’s happening with my accounts.

I don’t want to do blogs because noone reads them! I am hoping some people will follow my progress, give me pointers and encouragements. I wouldn’t mind picking up a friend or two along the way. :slight_smile:

The Fed and central banks are doing lots of shady business behind the banks of individual investors like us. We are the last to know what exactly is happening and how severe things are.

The market is being pumped forcefully with money so we are seeing quite a bit of volatility. Be careful…

What did I say yesterday about markets being volatile? Things are all over the place. May be prudent to sit on the side lines and see how things line up.

Mid week update.


Yesterday’s progress is attached.

I started entering more trades today. As a result I am risking more and hoping to make more. Today was not a good day to increase the risk for me however… I got schooled thanks to Feds pumping money and screwing with the market. Will post weekly results tomorrow.


This past week was a very volatile week. I doubt this coming week will prove any different. Markets are trying to sort themselves after a healthy dose of fundamentals. Fundamentally the U.S. financial system is not as sound as people had hoped. Let’s see how all this fiasco finally pans out. Regardless, I am going full steam ahead with my system. I expect to regain all losses I had last week and than some.

Let’s see how it works out.

I’ve attached weekly and daily charts below.


Good gains for the day… Let’s hope we can keep it up for the entire week.


Perhaps it would be helpful to others to post an image of your trading platform and how you derive your trades: what indicators you use, your psychology, etc.
Thanks.

My analysis is quite involved. I look at about 10 different criteria and evaluate them on 3 different time frames.

It takes me 4 hours to do analysis on the currency pairs I am trading. Posting my thought process here will make my trading day twice as long and stressful…

I hope you understand.

Not happened today balance wise, but I have a bunch of positions floating negative. I think they’ll work out…we’ll see.


Little action today…
