My work schedule finally stopped doing this 2 weeks on 2 weeks off crap schedule so i can trade full time again.
I am doing the oneup trader program. its 25k challenge 1500 profit target, with 15 trading day period.
I have couple simple rules..
1) Don't trade the opening rage of the market
2) Total trades a day 3x
3) If Max loss 200 dollars a day
4) 1 contract per 10k balance
5) Dont trade during NYSE lunch time
Day 1
took 2 trades
1 break even
1 winner
trading: NQ ES RTY YM CL and GC
today traded NQ.. market gapped up most of the morning, and went side ways so i decided to come back for the afternoon ramp.. the big traders will close their long positions, causing volume spike and shorts piling on in.. so on the renko chart you will see the first correction and i traded the pull back after the .65 fib break.. i should of held it because i moved the stopped at break even.
but finished the day 200. shooting for 200-500 a day.
