current expectancy is now $51.14. I've had 38 total trades in the combine with an average of 8 per day. Average winning % is 86.84%. There are 16 days left with an additional $7056.46 in profits needed. I would need an expectancy of $55.13 going forward. Currently risking $1 to win $0.4365. I'm averaging $388.71 per day.
Going forward I can put in work on the risk side of the equation or the R:R or a few other tweaks to make the numbers work.

BTW I think my work is really after the market is closed or before the cash open. I'm up until around 10pm coming up with levels and themes for the next day and usually up by 5:30am. When the market is open and I'm actually trading, I'm more just executing my plan vs. making decisions on the spot. I really don't care when trades go against me and don't get excited when they're working either. Hope that helps a few people.
I just got caught in a sweep of the book. Short NG and someone swept the book for 100 ticks from 360 to 460. Huge move. I'm not out of the combine but can't trade today anymore as I'm close to the daily. This is the dangerous part of trading futures. Happened at 8:29am and took less than a minute. Fun day at the office. Lots of work going forward. IDK if it was a fat finger trade or intentional but wouldn't matter anyway. Can't wait to see my stats tonight. Ha.
was looking for a PB to 3.335. I was setting up all my orders for the day and didn't have the stops in place yet for anything. profit takers got their move and would be looking to take profit. was hitting a brick wall off the hour POC. VAL on a 5 min. was right at the 25% PB and still made larger time frame players feel comfortable as it would still be in profile at that price.
