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

Will try to post the chart after the close, no time now. Look at the ESZ7 5min- Candles.

Long 1481, Target Prev Close, 12:38pm, Target Filled +2.75 Pts

 

New Bal: $4,327.50

 

 

Using price action, Volume and trend lines,

 

Sorry

 

12:43pm Limit SELL 1482 Filled SOLD 1482 Time Limit on this trade: 15 min if it does not drop One Point, will cancel.

[Ronin 10]

15mins Short 1482 will go down...Trend Line at 1480

[Ronin 10]

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
