Greetings all!
Short introduction.
I'm a 23 year old regular guy, working full time in the banking industry, pursuing a part-time Bachelors in Marketing and am a freelance trader.
Been trading for over a year now, still in the process of learning, be my guest to criticise any entries I make as I am open to any criticisms; well that is part of learning as well!
The reason for me creating this trading journal is for me to keep track of my trades, to improve on my future entries as well as to learn from fellow traders here.
Most of my entries are based on, well as the subject title suggests, technical analysis..... and maybe a lil bit of luck.
I basically trade any pairs where I see opportunities.
I also do not prefer holding trades over the weekend, unless I see a very good reason to.
Bad habits:
I have the tendency to close my trades halfway towards the TP, but letting it run till it touch SL; need self-reminders that if it can touch SL, means it can touch TP.
So let's begin!
EDIT - 6 OCT 2015:
I've created an account for trade explorer just for this for full analysis.
I don't have to put opening and closing entries since it shows all as well.
EDIT - 9 OCT 2015:
Took out initial deposit as account made 100% turnover.
Let's make profits out of profits!
Overall pips:
Week 1: +261 pips
Week 2: +194 pips
Week 3: Account Migration
Week 4: +334 pips
Week 5: -73 pips - a definite learning point
