The Kitty Trader Journal

I am a kitty minion given a laptop and some money by my manager bear. I decided to trade Fx after graduating kittygarten in the school of Pipsology. I wanted to be formal about the journal but my Bearcat mentor told me not to be like Spock in Star Trek so here we are. There will be three kinds of trades: (1) CP Trades (Named after my mentor who taught me to trade currency), (2) MK Trades (Named after my mentor who taught me to trade indices and commodities), and (3) KT Trades (My experimental t…

This is a cool giveaway. I won’t be participating because I’m not yet ready to have my own trading journal. But it’s great to read different trading journals in this community.

The £10K Gamble - [The Journey]

I’ve been in the Forex game for over a decade now, and I believe 99% of indicators are BS. If you want to make money you can do it with a clean chart and some support and resistance lines. Aside from that, there is 1 indicator I would throw into the mix. Many are doubters. They believe you can consistently make money day trading or scalping - I believe that is for amateurs. As a true baller I decided amongst my fellow traders, an experiment was due. I would risk £10K, the queens finest, ster…

[johnnykanoo]

Interesting… I might join in the fun. If I do though I don’t really want people taking my journal as a signal service
I’m just sayin…

My other issue is some of my trades are taken from a proprietary system and I will have to be careful not to let it get reverse engineered otherwise that might get me into trouble.

Other than that I do take some discretionary trades. I could site some of the reasons for my trades but I might have to be ambiguous on some points. Who knows maybe I’ll start a thread or something.

BTW I’ve seen the titles of pipcrawlers fav’s. Some very good stuff there.

Did I miss it?

RSI Rollercoaster - journey to positive pips

So I got turned onto this by @dpaterso. Giving it a go since it’s easy and I need something easy to get me started and motivated to keep coming back. Dale shared me a book by Kathy Lien and Boris Schlossberg called High Probability Setups for the Currency market. It’s here if your interested. Rules for a Long Trade straight from the text RSI reading must be less than 30. Wait for an up candle to form and close with an RSI reading greater than 30. Go long at market on the open of the next…

Boom!

[chimmyfx]

Wow, lots of entries in this giveaway! Good luck to those who joined!

[ria_rose]

Looks like a lot of people joined. Haha. I guess I have to be more consistent with my updates then, especially with more competition. Haha. But good luck to us guuuuys!

[justshell]

Man same here LOL I think I might update my journal on here with all of my trades taken throughout the week at the END of each week. That might be easier for me

[fxsage]

I’m late to the contest but have tons of personal journals to share.

My technical 'HyperTrend' strategy journal

My algorithm involves taking two simultaneous entry trades with a stop loss based on 1.5 x ATR. The first of the trades has a TP of ATR. The second, runs… easy At this stage I move SL to entry to guarantee pure profit trade. Here we go then.
