Hi!
Thank you for stopping by my trading journal.
I trade for a living. My main technique is scalping and I am usually trading 20+ entries a day. I trade usually from London open to 3 PM GMT (15.00 GMT). My goal is to have all positions closed at the end of the day. I do not trade news.
The system is simple. I plot S/R areas on the chart, trend lines, pivots and I enter counter trend there. If the price is moving against me I look for the next area and add to the position creating a better average for the moment when the price will turn.
The target profit is 5-30 pips per position. It is not mechanical trading and I will not explain all my rules. Since the number of trades is high during a regular day my first ambition is to enter a trade in the journal in the next seconds after is executed.
A typical entry will look like this:
sh EU 56 -meaning I shorted EURUSD at the price 1.40567. The clock is FF clock when I post the entry. I try to do it within a minute from entry.
the abbreviations are:
sh - short
l - long
av - average price of the position
eu - EURUSD
gu - GBPUSD
au - AUDUSD
gj gy - GBPJPY
ej ey - EURJPY
uc - USDCHF
sq - square meaning that I have no position open
You may consider that each entry has the same size. I will post where my adding is 2 or more times the initial size.
A word of advice:
I do not trade with SL. I have a monetary SL that is a % of the equity. I will not disclose my equity or profits. I will post profits in pips net of commissions. I will not post statements nor respond to the ones asking for it.
I trade live with Dukascopy, using jforex platform. I chart on Mt4. So I will not be able to post the entries on MT4 charts nor myfxbook or other performance tracking platform.
Please do not follow my trades on live accounts. This style is the result of close to four years of exploring and trial and error. My trades are not signals to anyone but a way to discipline my trading and to see if I can increase the frequency of trading. All my trades are manual trades at market.
From time to time I will post my charts with the bias for the day and main levels.
I think that for the moment this covers the basics. Thank you for reading.
Update 1. I will not post the time anymore. It will be the time of the post in FF +/- 1-2 minutes. It is hard to trade and write. I had trades closed after less than 1 min.
Update 2. I started to receive questions by PM. I am not answering to PM. If you have a question please ask it in the thread. Thank you for your understanding.
Result:
2011
September +2398 pips (an incredible result but with the use of over 60% of my trading line! It was risky like hell and I will never do it again!)
October +1624 pips
November +1476 pips
December 0 pips - I did not trade
2012
January 0 pips - I did not trade
February 0 pips - I did not trade
March +989 pips
April + 569 pips but I traded only one and a half weeks

If you're not part of the solution then you're part of the problem.
