My name is Danielo and 38 years old. I was born in Germany and live there with my family. I'm private part-time trader. The main occupation is in digital transformation business. There is no experiences within professional banking or investing businesses. Over the past I've gained a lot of screen time within the FX market, mainly the Cable. I have collected all my knowledge about financial markets and trading solely within the WWW. There is a lot of knowledge but also a lot of content I'm not focused on. Comparing to FX, esp. the Cable (GBPUSD), it's impressive how "honest" the ES is. I'm seven hours ahead of Chicago time. I trade after my office hours. I'm new to ES and I'm curious how it develops.
My trading style is discretionary, mechanical, on naked chart. My trading ideas are developed on the fly, during market hours. My ES trading approach is scalping, mostly. 1 Trade per day, mostly.
Trading for living or living for trading. What's really important to me is why I trade. What is the reason you trade? What I mean is, in worst case you waste your lifetime. To lose money, hopefully not to much, is ok. But think about to lose huge amount of time with your family, your girlfriend, friends. Days, months, years. As a trader you life in social isolation. You take others people money away. Think about it. You have to be fine with yourself.
What I own and that is important for me, personally, is a
Vision
Mission
Strategy
Concepts
Rules
Screentime
I have a favourite picture about me as a trader and now you can guess what dog I see myself in:
