Im very surprised your not wiped out yet (should be fairly close)... and I work for an hedge fund

 

Nice that you work for hedge fund, but many hedge funds are going bankrupt. HFT is replacing Hedge Fund.

The idea of being a professional trader is to trade other markets and not only 1 market. Need to diverse. For example, my es trading represent 1% of my total trading income. However, based on the substantial risk involves trading in the es and based on my portfolio risk, $100K per contract in the es is reasonable and best risk management based on my portfolio. In fact, i believe it should be $100K per contract to be safe for the next flash crash

 

To be continue

 

I took a random look at your journal...

this is a graphical log of your trades during one fine spring day in 2010.

 

Interesting indeed.

Risking $5,550 to attempt a $50 profit is not my cup of soup,

but each to their own... carry on, you are doing one fine job.

It looks absolutely laughable when you put it on a chart like that. Different strokes for different folks though I guess!
