Its been a while I have been trading and FIO is my home.

I tried all the different methods in the last 3 years and now stuck to order flow trading watching price action and imbalances.

I primarily trade NQ100 futures on an intraday time frame and been good with it so far. So far in my 5 yrs of experience (Yes, that's the actual number and 3yrs on FIO), I have not been successful or even to BE since I started to look into this never-ending dilemma.

Since the beginning of the year, I found some success with my small account. June month has been very hard. The market is teaching me a lesson for my ego from recent profits and again its part of the business.

Here is my link to the journal. Hope you like what I post and if so, hit the thanks button.

Here's my submission to the contest, a little late to the party. In addition to my usual weekly updates, this month I plan to post some intraday activity also.

Forgot to submit my link though.

Here it is.

Journal Contest Entry

I wasn't going to enter this contest, but I got an email from FIO today that said it's not too late, so I'll toss my entry in now.

Here's a link to my first journal post in July. We'll take this as my start:



There are so many truly great journals entered this year. It will be a pleasure reading the ones I don't already know, and I'll vote enthusiastically for many of them, I'm sure.

Good luck to everyone (and I'll take some, too .)

Bob.

I had actually created this journal for the July 2017 journaling contest. Life with its challenges took over and trading took a backseat. I hope to start afresh, so here's my journal:

I am not sure this is the best way to count the vote. I think it is better to count the vote in the actual journal itself.
