Allow me to intoduce myself

Hi,

I have had this site recommended to me by a new member and friend from other site by the name of Firewalker, who has informed me that this is a no nonsense site and has many traders.

I come from trade2win.com and prior to that traderchat.com to which I am under the same name for both.

My posts have slowly got less and less at trade2win due to the amount of childish chit chat and derailment of posts and although I will be looking to be an active member here, my blog at trade2win there will remain updated.

I trade indices only (currently S&P500 and Ftse100) but also look briefly at other instruments like gold,oil and currency. I am mostly a fundamental trader who trades long term positions on the futures market with the use of technicals and smaller time frames (1,2,3,5 mins) for entries/exits.
It wouldn't be unusual for me to hold a certain position (long/short) for many months before reversing. Although I look at the longer picture for trades I will trade on an intraday basis and my weekly closes amount to around 30 contracts for several hundred points.

I am a consistant trader with a track record spanning over 4 years for indices and over a decade for stocks. Such results will be posted on here using screenshots and explanations for it may be of use to others. Prior results can be seen by looking up my name on trade2win.com and traderchat.com.

I hope that I will meet many interesting traders on here that I could share with and learn from.

I look forward to learning new experiences and strategies, for which there are many.

Thank you for welcoming me to this site.

Re: Hello Everyone

Wow! Big gun amongst us! Welcome indeed. We hope to learn more from you I hope. Most of us are either new or trade small compared to what you trade so I'm sure as we grow, we'll be looking forward to your insight, especially on how patient you are holding such a big position despite a few crises we've had recently. How did you handle the Jan. news when BSC dove mercilessly? I'm sure most of us were just glad sitting out of that one.

Thanks Lee and welcome in the new environment

Always enjoyed your posts, hope you find your away around here as well.
There's also a blog function here, which is in fact the same as on T2W. I've opened one myself.

Good trading.
