Having spent quite a while round and after the second finally came for me to start trading full time I'll be posting here a few previous and still open trades, analysis, suggestions and whatever may seem interesting at the moment.
The reason I do not do this in my personal blog is because I came to understand that I want to separate trading from personal life, otherwise emotions will surely kill both.
The intention of this diary is for me to be able to return and see what I did right, what I did wrong and finally what could be improved. I have a tendency to be quite inconsistent with blogs and journals but hopefully I will keep the power and desire to post here on a regular basis.
On a different note - I do understand that this is a public forum but this thread is my own personal diary and it follows a specific purpose. Everyone's welcome to drop in, ask questions, etc, but I will not tolerate smart asses or (that I finds quite common round the FF) people coming and behaving like I owe them anything (knowledge, answers, etc).
Having that said here are a few ready answers for any newbies that may come by this thread:
- I do not use platform, I try to approach and understand the market each and every day
- Market is ultimate, period
- I scale in and out (more rarely) - I do not recommend this, I just do it
- I do not use any indiors other then finally a MA
- I trace a large number of markets, some of them on several time frames. I believe this is vital for anyone who is seeking to stay alive in this industry on the long term - you have to understand that this is sport of funds flows and feelings on a global level so in the event that you want to be good in the sport you want to know the rules.
This should be a fair beginning I think. The remainder will come with time. Or not
