Well so many of you who have posted transaction journals have prompted me to do exactly the same.
I have spent the last 2 months finalizing my trading/business program. This egy has been for a year and a half in development. The journal's purpose will be for accountability in my part. And constructive criticism from other people.
Finally I want to trade whole time. By the end of July 2010, I want to be able to make a decision on when I could visit full time.
My current Job is trimming houses. So at times I'm restricted for the quantity of trading time I will get in. I also have employees so this adds some of its own dynamics.
At this time I trade the eurusd. So as time advances I will get into more detail on matters.

It's been over a year since I began this diary. Now as I read back through this I am seeing how this has come to be a listing of a traders travel through the mine fields of the Forex market. It's intriguing to observe the way my trading style has shifted as I become seasoned with the idiosyncrasies of the market.
I am not a complete time trader however, but I am watching it on the horizon. I am getting very settled in on what works for me and what does not. I know my trading program will always be evolving and advancing. At the moment there's a lot of it in my mind mainly because I just don't know how to write it all down.
There are a lot of excellent traders who have helped me with this trek. Each one giving me a piece of the map that has been required. I don't know if there's ever any one individual that can completely answer all of the questions that come up in a traders life. I have had maybe hundreds. So I would buy you a drink or lunch or something, that can be hopeless, but rather I'd say thank you. Hopefully I have helped people on their trip to Forex fortunes too.
So trade safe all and if you start to read this from front to rear enjoy the travel, I have.

I have been browsing through this thread a Little. It's fascinating how my trading has changed. There are fewer indiors and I am not concerned about each pip of movement any longer. Now it's all zones of imbalance that are exploited. As a matter of fact as of this date most of the positions are initiated when I am not home. Pending orders are the order of business as of late.
To reiterate this thread has been a listed travel in the Forex Market.
