The reason of the loss was simply in the Wednesday rule that I was using.
This is no problem - the rules especially for that day work very good.
Exceptions always possible - hence the stop.

Good trades

PS: Today much more tricky as I said at precision time the downswing will end - that
makes nervous

This week had 3 trades

One negative (SL) - 30 points
Two positive 11 + 60 points
Weekly result 41 points

Points since week 1: 1216

During this journal of that thread I maintain a statistic of gains in points per Weekday:




As longtime follower you might remember that I skipped Tuesday and Thursday as normal
trading days from 2014 - some exceptions of course because of holidays etc.
Looking nearer one can see that the profitable days are Monday and Wednesday for all
five years plus (results until this week). Of course every Weekday was profitable over long time.
But as result I get two trade free days in the week - that makes it much more relaxed!

Take a look on your own trading days - this might reveal a lot - and you might win
by NOT TRADING on bad weekdays. Have in mind that announcing days like FED, ECB etc.
can have big impact to trade in negative results. So again - know when not to trade.

Thin signal!

Looking back on the Fib Spiral in the other thread - some down move was in the chart -
just not clear by when. Today the price went down near 12.0k and it looks like
that border less than 12 will be killed tonight.
At least some open gaps will be cleared.

But for the trader it means: LOWER MARGINS - yeah!

Dax short 10:30 to 13:00

entry @ 12220
exit @ 12228
result -8 points

IB vol low to ok

PS: Down move came strong and one hour too early...
Then sticking at a Pivot point and nothing happened.
For those with nerves - stay until 15:30

well - would have given 12182 - means 48 points plus instead of -8
which was not foreseen by the rules today....
