Glad to see you're back. Still looking to quit your day job?

Cable - Short 1.4497/TP +150-200/ST 50 = ???
Current target is around 1.4230 but I may adjust this to 1.4270, will see how things progress.

100% but I need to clear up a few rough edges before I can, it was going to be immediate but now I'm looking to leave in 2-3 months instead. My choice would be tomorrow but it's not possible unfortunately.

Missed my TP (limit order) by 3 pips to take 200 pips profit, currently around 150+ up however.

Although I'm not hugely bearish on Cable I still think we're going down to 4200 today, there will be an adjustment higher very shortly but I'll stay with my short for now.

Closed my short, it's been open long enough and I've made more than I aimed for.

 Cable - Short 1.4497/TP 1.4260/ST ~50 = +237 ($23,700)


I'm unlikely to trade for the rest of the week, that's more than satisfied my targets.

A combination of them now, when I was operating with a few thousand $ I was using just GFT but I now spread my 'work' across a number of brokers.

Longer term I'll be going STP using an Institutional account.

Are you any closer to providing us with more details or do I have to take my fan club somewhere else? Only joking of course, I'm as patient as Methuselah, I'd have to be wouldn't I?

Hey Bleek!

Did you get the name of Parasitical Trader from the book Trading & Exchanges?
That's the only other place that I can remember seeing the term.

I'm not sure of that books definition, I'm a mixture of things but my quick in and out moves are using order anticipation, momentum and break-outs so I guess I'm a parasite feeding off the bigger moves.

I'm actually not going to update this journal for a while now because it's turning in to a bit of a 'get rich quick' ego boost and that's not what I'm after.

I am in the process of writing a PDF on my methods and approach, it won't be a solid a-z equation of how I do things but more a focus on why I do things.

Hello Bleek, some of your posts caught my attention and I do take a look at your journal from time to time. Just realized that you intend to share of some your good stuff soon in pdf.

Many may hate my post here, and trust me I struggle too. On one side I really want to know how you think, on the other side, I am so afraid that you will give away the "holy grail".

Have you considered the efficacy of your edge if you do share ? Of course it is not for me to tell you what to do and there is the other theory also that retail traders can't trade big enough to change anything in the world's biggest market.

Nevertheless, I look forward to the pdf, but with mixed feelings....

regards

It's not gonna be the holy grail like you think/hope I'm afraid... read his posts which highlight how hard he's worked and what kinda processes he goes through deliberating before his actual trade triggers...nothing simple in this world mate - just because he can make it work doesn't mean others can...i.e. the holy grail is PERSONAL! lol
