Hi Jozef

An interesting week has come to an end. We watched around 30 hrs of M1 charts if not more. But still not really a great week profit wise, or was it?

I've seen much better weeks and there will be much more profits in the weeks to come. I know one thing for sure. I'm not going for mediocre performance nor am I going for average returns. I am going for maximising profitability. My aims is to double the 10 k account by march 2018 and again in another 3 months. This is a challenge. But if done will pave a pathway for those who want to take the challenge as well.

My first two T20 batches are over and frankly for my level of experience it was disgustingly bad. But its ok, I know I can do better and I was a little rusty.

Lets hope we have a nice week after a lovely weekend. This will surely be the last week of December. We might look at the charts on the 27, 28 and 29. We'll see..


Meanwhile have a great weekend.

ps: turns out I replied without refreshing my screen. I found out you had updated your journal. I have one thing to say. Those trades you took before NFP. I did not suggest you take the trades on nfp using the S1 Hunt method. I thought if you wanted to trade the NEWS and don't have NEWS trading ea, I suggested that you could do that using ATM. But those will be done on currencies. No doubt it can be done on dax as well but for your normal T20's i don't think you shoud mix it with NEWS. If you wnated to trade news, that should be a separate T20 and a separate part of your trading plan. imho

It was not a profitable week. +0,5 R. Never mind. I made mistakes because there was not a good move. So NEXT.

First week of december ... I won't be surprised if the second is even worst. on the other hand if this week was around 5% profit it would be a surprise. But we will trade as usual. Today I took a break due to children being off school, tomorrow seems to be the same but will look at initial move at LO. If it moves I'll be looking to trade. IF NOT ... f it.

This week will have many news and hopefully market moves. Let's trade the setups that comes and that's all there is. At least I hope for moves for this week as family holidays slows down everything until January.

I can not notice the divergence. I looked at M5 there gator was opened down. It was just before NEO. It was possible to drop heavily but it did not happen. It is ok. It was moving later. I can see nice Jcherry but do not take it because I trade a lot that day. The result was 0 R. More important is that I learned a lot.
