First, Thank you for taking the time to post your trading and results with live money. Greatly appreciated!!

I have been thinking about joining the Intentional Trader as well, so that is how I found your journal.

Curious, are you in their trading room as well to help you with learning entries etc?
Do you feel you need the full indicator package or is there just one or 2 that you seem to rely on the most?

I thought it would be a good idea to use fibonacci levels and watch for the Flash and/or Ricochet indicators to
help to get into the trade.

Also...overall...are you happy with their indicators/methods?

Looks like you are doing well. You take a $250+/month and start adding contracts...not bad.
Plus work on getting a higher winning trade percentage...all seems positive from what I see.

Again...a big thank you for the time you are taking to journal your results.

Mike

Mike,

I am in the room also and it does help me when I am unsure. But I have to have my finger on the trigger already or I will miss it.

I can't speak to your other questions as it is a violation of Big Mike's. I can only share that I have all the indicators and use them when I trade.

I am pleased with my progress so far and hope to continue improving.

GC: Short 1171.7. Had medium blue Speed Ticks so was a little less conservative. +5



I picked today to stop trading DAX and NG (see below). I missed 2 winners in the DAX and 1 winner in NG. Figures...

I also added more aggressive setups (called Darkside) which is why there are some new lines on the chart. These are not part of the trading room nor are they Intentional Trader setups. But the setups do use some of their indicators. These setups require additional indicators and takes a lot of computer resources so I chose to remove the DAX and NG. I took 14 Darkside setups (SIM only) and had 10W 1L 3S. And I missed a few because I was not paying attention.

Really appreciate you taking the time to post your trades. I am also in the process of researching Intentional Trader and this is great info to review. Any chance we can talk on the phone so i can pick your brain a little before spending thousands of dollars on this system?

CL: Short 78.93. This was an unconventional setup. Medium blue ST No OBOS and No BH. +5



Darkside trades were 8W 4 L. Should have skipped 6 of them since the slope was too steep (>45 degrees). Would have been 2W 1L. I need to refine my skills here. That is why I'm simming these setups.

I'm a VIP in Tony's room too and I have created an indicator that will display the slope of the 8 EMA, it also changes color depending on how steep the slope is. Green - less than 45..... Yellow - 45 to 59 & red - > 60. It also shades between the 8 EMA & 13 EMA. Let me know if you are interested, I offer it to a VIP for no charge.
