Greetings everyone, This is my first post in this forum, and it will be a log of my daily trades. I believe that publishing a log of my trades can only help my trading and make me more accountable for my progress as a trader.
I am 21 years old and currently in my last year of university. I have been trading futures(live and paper) for the last 8-10 months. I have tried many different strategies and systems, and have gotten very little in the way of profit. I have recently started trading grain futures with a purely discretionary approach. I trade off of S&R and any patterns that I see in these markets. This approach is working very well since I started and I believe that I am on the path to being a good trader.
To give an idea of my trading approach I have a screen shot of a trade that I would make. After entering, as soon as I have some cushion on a trade I will move my stop to break even and continue to move it and attempt milk the trade if it acts well. My positions last anywhere from hours to minutes, depending on how the market reacts.
Starting tomorrow I will add screen shots of my executed trades(winning and losing).
