thoughts

Attempt number two

I will not restore the lost post. Not today. Other thoughts appeared. I will reflect.

[info]spartafx в который раз expressed a thought, from which I am not myself. The bottom line is, what if i'm in “routine work” Jonah, then nichrome will not come out on the markets.

In short, I started working after completing summer internship in my second year of university. By the end of the training “дослужился” to the head. Then he lost his point of growth and left to do something else. It didn't work out very well, but at this time I began to come across all sorts of Kiyosakovsky, etc.. books. I started thinking in a slightly different direction. I have tried everything and everything and have not achieved any satisfactory results anywhere. And in the end, quite by accident, I ended up on the market. And I realized that it was mine. (In the markets, I really tried everything too).

There is a nuance in my character. I am very impulsive, hot-tempered, I am overwhelmed by the stupidity and elementary unwillingness of people to think. I do not accept politics and sent the fuck in plain text several times in a row to an overly smart boss. Briefly speaking, it's very difficult to get along with me. I'm an arrogant and nasty guy, in most cases, communicating with me is not a very pleasant process.

And the market seems to be the only place where there is no need for communication with the human factor.. There is only me. Another billion people like me are not available to me. I see only the result of their actions and I can only react to them.. Every time after the brainwave in the real sector I go and think, how to work well in the markets. Sit alone in front of a monitor and enjoy jazz.

I used to be really bad. I was driven by hate. That is, I did something good because, that there was a lot of shit around and it pissed me off, i hated it. (: Now I'm limiting my negative vibes. Somehow more with good intentions, but I always get one x in the head ):

So here. If you take into account the amount of shit and take it as an axiom that the markets will only get worse… I'm fucked. I almost gave up several times already, but understood, that there are no alternatives. And now I seem to have even groped for something. It seems to have stopped draining. You just need a breakthrough to a new level, к профиту… but if they experience?

Two news.

The bad thing is, that you start to understand some things, when you are already in your fourth decade.
Good – finally something started to reach your head, though… and it may turn out to be just another self-deception.

Return to reality

Yes Yes. Back to trading on a real account. Today:

1. Firstly, I, as usual, did not get enough sleep and had already begun to lose adequacy by the time I approached the terminal. Opened the terminal, разрисовал, sold by hand. I must put a stop, а нечем (: Forgot to copy scripts from development to real. Copied, поставил стоп. The stop level turned out to be more than necessary.

While adding scripts to favorites accidentally bought (: Closed the purchase. Looked closely, I thought what the fuck did I start selling, and not to buy and why closed the purchase, but left the sale? While I was thinking, the stop was blown.


Some troubles, misunderstanding errors. The rules say: сделай паузу, прийди в себя. I waved signal number 2.

3. Entering short for breakout test. I so wanted the situation to be perfect (as in the point 2) that he was scared of the green candle and had already made a decision if he rolled back a little — cover position. So I did. Apparently in vain. What the hell was I afraid of? Stop stood, stop didn’t take off, nothing changed, but I jumped off.

4. Entering short for breakout test. Ideally, here I had to add to the previous entrance. But I just opened up. There was no further (maybe it was, but i didn't see) no pretty levels, so I never caught the moment for refilling. When came out, I have already relaxed. I already wrote a report in my mind and agitated what happened.

At this moment I was looking at signal number 5 and I was overwhelmed with contradictory feelings.. It was against opening up: усталость, already relaxed, converted to non-trade, against the rules (three trades are over). There was only a technical signal for the opening – rebound from levels (тот самый 1.37) besides, in the morning I drew a triangle, from which they went upstairs — for longs. I certainly did not open. About what, of course sorry.

An important point. At the first stop-loss, I practically did not worry about the minus. I was rather worried about, that I was not worried (: In short, no emotions about the minus — this is a great achievement! There was already a case on the second trade. But there I am myself to blame, that's why, I think it's acceptable.

Briefly speaking, today is done" (from the word deal):

Risk 3-5% on transactions at profit 20% I think it's okay.

Day summary +7.87% By the way, today is the 24th trading day from the day the account was opened. I mean, I traded for the 24th time. The first trade was 11 november 2009. Best result of the day 28.45%, worst -70.02%. The result so far 39.08%.

PS. We're still balancing, but the control point is already higher.

PPS. Спать хочу, eyes hurt. Kick-ass. ):

Observations.

There are a lot of broken cars in the city. Scratches, dents, broken bumpers. Mostly, our and budget foreign cars. May be, after the accident, my attention is fixed on this? But talked to acquaintances – many noticed. Is it seasonal, or people don't have money, save on insurance and repairs.

At ATMs, people mostly stand, to pay off the loan, and not take the proceeds.

discovered, that many have several hundred friends. I, честно, even 50 I don't have time to read in my friend feed, I skim a lot, forgive generously, not enough time.

You need to constantly urge yourself, carrot and stick, or roll down to a vegetable state. Yesterday-today I noticed… By the way, and psychologists say, that forward movement can be stimulated either by hanging in front of the nose “carrot”, or whipping.
I read a comparison with an amoeba from one author: hungry – moving, well-fed – is at rest. So are we.

About the aching one

Plan work and work according to plan. Familiar? With the second part, I have specific troubles.

I have a feature. When I am slept and rested — it is adequate. Through 8-12 there is nothing to take from me anymore. This is already statistics. My best trades happened exactly «in the first hours of adequate». The analysis of a large TF on weekends is also the most correct one..

My child wakes up in 8 morning, I can't get enough sleep anymore. It was like that yesterday. Waking up to work. Here are the brief conclusions drawn in adequate:

First: «I see only a stretch of whiplash and not key reversal down. Now I would like to touch something from the bottom and continue the flight. But seven hours won't be enough. In short, it's not clear, but look down. I don’t know what to do yet.»

And two hours later: «Whiplash works. Bottom level touched. Go down. All short, don't forget about the feet (:»

In this moment (yesterday's screenshot just before the start of the euro session) I really wanted to open my accounts.


But I didn't do it because of the competition, to whom I wanted to pay all my attention. If something went wrong I would have to switch back and forth, steam up, etc.. What could be worse…

Then the Eurosession began, which dived under the low., I couldn't get out of it. Obviously, that support became resistance.



(4H)

The opening of the states just added drive to the obvious situation..

By this time, the adekvat is gone. Contrary to my own recommendations, on the contest account, I opened a long for everything, without feet. Furthermore, I wrote in advance how to behave in the competition. That from the breakdown test you need to pour in to the fullest and keep until the last. Did none of this. This is the diagnosis. Complete inadequate. I even understood it. And even made a shortcut on Finam's account. But having estimated its inadequacy, closed the position out of harm's way.


I wrote that I would go to sleep, but I could not sleep. Picked up my scripts and watched the margin call my contest pose.


Meanwhile, goals described 21 January I consider it spent.


Since then have flown about 550 points, of which I took about 10.

Some disorders ):

Two ways.

There are two ways in life. The path of the Warrior and the path of the Contemplator. When I got too impatient and too active – life kept me warm, by inserting a stick into the wheel, and I was sliding down a couple of steps. When I spent too much time waiting for the grace of the universe, `` contemplating the waters of the river '', they kicked me, sometimes tough, so I start to move. Is wise, кто понимает, when to row, and when to surrender to the will of the current.

Some disorders

Plowed like a horse all last week but this real sector. I didn't even look at the charts this week..

On the one hand it seems good, that I'm resting. On the other hand, the thought of sitting down to trade seems, that I haven't done it for so long, what nah forgotten how…

I looked at the chart today.

Upset of course. Pretty, smoothly and almost no rollbacks, as expected. And without me.

Надо что-то менять.

Give money under management for a medium term. Normally, once a week it turns out to look at the markets. (:

PS. By the way, I burn out from great stress. All Saturday like an amoeba, ничего не хочется, I don't know what to start ):

It's obvious

After a day of parks, trying to get home, got on the wrong bus twice in a row.

First time lucky - came out without a break at the next stop (along the route). Second time - at a stop-loss around the bend, had to win back walk the block back.

And no statistics needed. Work must be slept and rested.

A lot of non-news

I'm in no hurry to go to the market.

Looking back at your deals, I see a lot of shit trades. There are also potentially high-quality deals, spoiled by premature exit. I just didn't find high-quality deals. I just didn't find high-quality deals. Well,, there is something to go.

A quality deal is a deal, open by entry signals and closed by target, by exit signal or by stop loss. Here's an example:

Big dot:



There is a tendency to break through the support lines and test them from below.

Trade:



USA session started in a narrow range. After the upward breakout, you can go in the direction of the breakout in order to test the trend line. Potential slightly more 20 points, stop in case of a false breakout and return to a range of about 10 points. Fine.

I will try to conduct such trades in the future..


Trying to learn from strangers…

I wandered to the site azarov-fx.ru (I write this on purpose, so as not to get into the search). There, shorter, professional traders offer to give them money to manage. In an investment environment, there are two strategies to choose from: "Conservative (positional tactics)"And" ultra conservative (scalping)». There is also monitoring there since February 2009. Apparently an ultra conservative strategy. Deals, reports, all sorts of schedules… I'll talk about them now.

Here's a start:

Total return: 340.2% [Net profit as a percentage of gross deposits], Banked return: 340.2% [Banked net profit as a percentage of gross deposits]

From February 2009 +340%, 15% per month, нехуёво? I drove deals into my stat-counting room:



There are many different instruments, therefore the results in paragraphs are incorrect. But…

Conclusions on this snippet:

80% profitable trades should be like fucking.

The style is called, I will quickly fix the profit and sit out the losses.

In the most profitable trade, from opening to closing a position, 7 minutes.

In a trade closed with a loss - almost 8 hours!

A loss-making deal brought three days of work to naught and drove into the minus.

It took three more days, to pull the score to zero.

Bottom line - a week of marking time. This is how it all began. We look, what happened next:

At the very beginning of the graph, I marked the moose discussed above. For the next two months, the graph drew a good parabola like this, and then there was another elk. Even two. Contract.

These two moose killed more than three (six) of the day, and about three weeks of work.

It took over three months, to get back to that level, from which fell.

From 6 about half a month spent marking time.

In my humble opinion, this account (this style trading strategy) no future. This is some kind of masturbation. Despite the result +340%, to me personally, I don't want to go this way.

Trades and statistics


Results in numbers.

Obviously, what:

1. The statistics were spoiled by the last flight;

2. The maximum flight in points would not be so terrible if it were not for the shoulder taken and twice in a row

If we exclude these two stray deals, the statistics are still not rosy:

Average values ​​of profit and loss in points are almost the same.

Considering reinvestment (working size increase) each subsequent elk will overlap several previous profits. But it should be the other way around.

 Solution, as usual elementarone. You can leave losses at the same level, but profit should be given a chance to accumulate.
