Look forward to sharing my journal with everyone....
Platform: Investor R/T with IQfeed, Currently in Trial with MultiCharts. I love MC but I use a lot of volume studies...I really just need to spend some time with MC and bet it would do most of what I need. MC seems to be way more reliable....Also, use Infinity as a broker.
I've been trading futures for the past 8mos....mainly watch the ES & 6E. No formal training...In the beginning I was very indicator dependent and switching up every week or so. Finally, I managed to drop down to a couple of studies (CVD w/ MA & Volume Delta). As of late, after joining futures.io (formerly BMT), I've been following the price action thread - WOW...this has greatly affected my trading. I now concentrate mainly on price action and use my volume studies for sentiment...might try to kick these out soon. I use volume profiles (High/Low Vol Nodes) and prior day HLC for S/R. If a had to sum my trading plan up in a sentence....I follow price action and order flow and I don't go against the grain...(I trade with trend). Oh yeah, my weakness - I would say my biggest weakness is early exits and stops.
Yesterday, I traded the morning ES for a short time frame...~8:50 - 9:30...looking forward to the ES next week.
The blue & red arrows represent trades & exits...I trade 3 contracts.....If an arrow doesn't have an X, then it's an entry...thus, the X and the # represent the contracts closed. Hope I'm not leaving anything out......
