Good call for doing a journal, I know it can be time consuming keeping it up, but it would help you loads if you post a chart for your trades as well.

 

Not only would it help people in the TL community, but it will be easier for you when looking back and reviewing your trades in a months time or so.

 

Cheers

Exit Filled at 1479 + 3 Pts

New Bal: $4,477.50

 

Out Flat

 

Possible Bounce UP here, it must not test the low of Prev BAR 1477.50, 5min Bars, second Bar did not, third Bar will disqualify the Trade, 1:16pm third 5min Bar tested the Low.

 

Out Flat

 

It must test the 1479 to be genuine bounce ( valid )

 

Limit Buy 1478 1:25 Filled Long 1478 Will give this trade 10mins-( Neg Internals and Neg NQ).... Out 1477.50 - 0.50 Loss Time is of the essence in this game.

New Bal: $ 4,452.50

 

 

Buyers are coming in here, Limit Buy 1474, Filled Long 1474, Exit 1475 Filled +1 Pt

 

Long 1475
