My notes and thoughts on the market and trades

Notes on 4 august

Results of a Small Experiment : Strict adherence to the trading system The results are very impressive. Out of 2 weeks of adherence to it, there was only one minus day small. True, initially it was a minus at the beginning of the day, but this is due to the fact that I traded in the first hour. According to its results, it surpassed the best month in 2 Times, but then he broke down and could not strictly follow the rules and lost more than half of what he earned through his own fault. conclusions : Observing the Trading System, you can achieve phenomenal results, the main enemy is discipline and emotion. The main problem now is this, not in the trading method. Notes: Do not raise positions too aggressively, best to increase gradually by a third, not in 2 times more. Discipline is gone, stupid deals appeared. We must return to the old style. The market gradually calm down, the season of reports is coming to an end

Everything happened as I said with the smartapple pool

I think who has been reading me for a long time, that a long time ago the original chat was with svyat and everything was fine. He had a wonderful blog smartapple.biz, unfortunately which he stopped keeping., but turned into a good forum for traders. Over time, he opened the Trader Pool useful for beginners. It is profitable for him and cheaper for beginners. Initially, he collaborated with RTFM, but they had problems, it’s good that they couldn’t outbid me, because a month before MIG-Invest asked me to write a couple of posts about them and help with the site from a technical point of view. I don't need money, just like to help, I love everything new. Everyone who contacts me knows, that I just spend my time on them, I analyze transactions and help with errors, without asking for anything in return and without luring you to your broker. Then he was lured away by broker JC and then our paths diverged, the person began to sort out my words and try to put in a bad light. Ultimately deleting me from Chat and I stopped all communication with him. Well that's so backstory… The pool is currently cooperating with Avalon Fund Aktiv , but before that he tried in every possible way to denigrate MIG-Invest . Compare 2 site and you will understand. I think a lot of people remember, what I said after deleting me …

Decrease positions by two Decrease the loss limit by two Decrease the number of positions by two We are waiting for the companies' reports to start., the market is worth

Notes 17 June

My standard position is 1/3 from maximum Each increase in position, this is a separate deal For a positive day, enough 2 good deals In weeks should be at least 3 positive days, one negative and one at zero The minimum profit must be at least 50C on the basis that the average stop is 10C 35-40% only profitable trades, the rest minus. The ratio of GROSS to volume must be at least 2. For every 10000 shares not less than 200 dollars of profit. Initially, I can lose the maximum 4 deals in a row in the red, into a regular position and my day will be over for trading Every third trade should be profitable Profitable trades should never be closed in the negative like days Emotions interfere with trading, only clear and competent transactions according to the trading plan

Notes 26 May

Due to the fact that I learned to trade, the premarket was not prepared for the trading day, because of this, there was no idea within the day.The worst time for my trade is the first hour and with 13:00 – 14:00 Most of the money was lost due to violation of trade rules – Do not trade reversals and do not average For a good day, it is enough to have 2 normal transactions, even if it was 8 negative When the market is at a standstill and there are no ideas, do not open positions. Wait for some kind of movement Premarket does not give me a chance to earn normally because. My risks are not defined and I can't get big positions, on small positions making big moves my profits will be limited in the future Do not trade Premarket, not profitable. I need to focus on trading, relaxed too much

Mistakes 24 May

Early began to trade reversal, stock with lots of shadows and no signals to enter Bad price and because of this big stop, could not properly sit out his idea Did not transfer the stop to zero although I did more than 20C and there was an opportunity Not correctly evaluated the graphic model, there was more chance of a pullback entered the action with big shadows and dirty movement

Notes 19 May 2010

You cannot trade small positions, start making stupid deals. The greater the position and risk, the faster and better you think. IN 1001 I repeat to myself : ” You cannot trade in the first hour and catch reversals in stocks, it doesn't make me money !!!!” Large positions move stocks and slip prices, pick up little by little. Never trade other people's ideas and listen to no one

Thoughts on 14 May 2010

The previous month was the largest in terms of stock volume., but by the middle of this month exceeded the volume of that month Got used to a large position and because of this relaxed, old problems are back. Less began to think about deals What would make better days , enough to make 2 transactions at 50C For the last 2 made a bunch of mistakes, I don't trade tomorrow, I understand mistakes. I will write a post about what is wrong Now every day I will analyze the deals of the previous day and post them The season of company reports is over, the market abruptly subsided. I'm waiting for the connection of NASDAQ charts To stick to the rule ” If 3 deals in the negative – resting ” . I will write down the result on paper and how I see 3 negative I do not open new deals.

Readers' letters

Almost every day I receive letters from my new readers with praise and questions., which makes me very happy and see a constant increase in my audience. Of course I answer everyone their question, but I would like to write to the NYSE Traders Forum,NASDAQ , AMEX because. many will see the answer to your question and perhaps find the answer for themselves. Here is one of the usual letters : Cool blog!!! It's a pity that I didn't find it before. You, one might say, opened my eyes. I was already disappointed in trading, how did your notes help in time?, especially about trading after 1 o'clock. Probably because I'm too young, and emotional, “flew in” in the deal in the first minutes and me strongly “there were”. All the same, it is better to study first. And if you can, you can tell newbies to focus on one stock or a few. I read somewhere that it's better to be “narrow-profile” trader. Can you share your opinion. Alex: If you read my Rules for Trading in the First Month on the NYSE , then I already mentioned, that in the first hour I do not advise beginners to trade. Also, in the beginning, you need to learn how to make the right deals and better concentrate on one deal., and then go to several open positions.

My thoughts, ideas and notes in the first year of trading on the NYSE

Maybe someone will be interested in reading my thoughts, ideas and notes when I first started trading on the NYSE. I wrote down notes and rules for myself and re-read them before. Read the rules every day EVERY DAY, WEEK, MONTH NET-ohm in positive territory close, Analyze yesterday's trades always Trade with 10 10 To search for and enter the current in the best options, it is imperative to use a protective stop to cut losses and give profits to grow. Increase position in the course of movement on pullbacks Trade with the trend
