    you not alone!

    I believe the emphasis is rather about which you cant blow off your entire account simply because a 20 pips additional spike beyond your own expectations.
    Simple put: commerce little!

    I believe this is the most meaningful quote to have in mind while trading. (instead of another 'remain calm. .' , 'there is always another commerce ...', etc..)
    I'd buy a paint with this quote!

    the week ends here.
    Couple GJ long scalps today, total 0.22%.
    The week ended 2.96%, a wonderful strong one.
    Just 3 days left out of the month, actually mean to keep it in the green, even though it isn't gont be a 10% one, it's looking good in the moment.
    Off night, and tomorrow some household trip. . .maybe even place a photo?



    happy weekend!

    Had some time free now so doing some scalping in my Oanda account as opposed to my trading.
    I forgot how stimulating scalping is and emotional.
    I shall try for only to complete positive and without a DD lol.
    I would believe through that maybe Wednesday is a day to avoid no? Lots of news and could be a few whipsaws.

    I dont mind the news, for scalping the passing kiss is slow, flat market with narrow ranges...
    my worst days, entire and by much the Fridays. Mondays are the entries. Those 3 days, and middle of the week, when I have my money to be made by the best success.
    For fun, here is your myfxbook daily stat of the TE account.
    Incidentally Wednesdays made complete the most profit for me, but maybe not the maximum % gains.



    and yeah, Friday just stinks, looks like, in almost any dimensions. Some areas I will need to improve on, by being more cautious to bring a trade if. . .not worth skipping it completely, it makes some money.



    the fun of looking at figures.
    happy trading!

    Wow, these are interesting stats.... Never believed to analyze by day of the week.... Perhaps Friday isn't so good simply because you're already considering which beer you're likely to have in the weekend

    I think I will return to place trading in my quasi-grid.... After 8 hrs of scalping today I am in breakeven, unless my past two trades open around .... ho hum.... Very hard this trading lark

    scalping isnt any easier than another sort of trading.
    It's quicker, for sure.
    Even though I tend to scale entry as see fit, timing nevertheless is a really important issue.
    Now is quiet, but ultimately still managed to create 7 entries, for a total of 25 pips... 0.26 percent gain. Sometimes timing is good enough, like today, that all 7 entrances are singles, with no scaling. I am happy with the result for today, though 99% of forum members wont be amazed with these 'tiny gain'.
    Then again, the majority is losing money, and I trade to impress them. I trade to create a living. And also a living I am making. For the few who cares to read between the lines, will realize that it doesnt have to be outsized gain that is monthly to make ends meet.

    I enjoy numbers.
    Some part, like this about Fridays, could be suggestive, if the pattern repeat/uphold extended. . .and in the account instance it is gradually closing on on the 1 year mark.
    Eventually analyzing things may lead some minor alterations, as an example, I could take fewer transactions Friday, or trade smaller dimensions, or swings things the other way, and transaction marginally larger mid-week....
    There's possible reasons that the market is too slow Mondays as starting up, or Friday's I'm prone to get out fast, or try to get out fast, as I dont need to keep open transactions entering the weekend, and possibly rush things somewhat. All I could believe, the losses arent brought on by trading of NFP.
    additionally an alternative, it's just random supply of fortune, but I feel as though after about 2800 entrances, the sample is still getting large enough gradually to start to derive some conclusions and plan out some of the minor alterations.
    To not fix what's functioning, more like simply to smooth some of the roughest edges.

    Coincidence or what, in that article I had mine.
    I think that a film can tell a story more efficiently than words could.
