This marks the end of my first month of demo trading. I have been learning forex the past month and decided to share my set-up in terms of results. I do this in Excel (I’m sure there are resources tailored specifically to trading for this) mostly because I’m a budget analyst by profession, and pivot tables/graphs are what’s familiar to me.
I finished my first month +283 pips. For a complete newbie, I suppose this isn’t terrible, but I can’t believe how many pips I gave away in the second half of the month. I started out flying and I suppose I got into “invincibility mode” and predictably got *****-slapped by the market :eek: I think it was mostly due to over-trading/impulse trading. Something to work on for sure.
Here are a few screenshots. Anything you would add or take away from this?
