145 | -62% (hedged)

119   September 12, 2017 23:36   SwingFish   Trading Room Journal  

Shocking Tuesday

as the title said, i booked in a Massive Loss of 62%
but this is only balance based, there is still a hedge trade open that will very likely pay for the whole show.

a combination of me still being sick and a few other elements lead to this, which does certainly looks very bad on the Portfolio.. but as you can see the Equity is still Solid (318% .. thats Huge !!),
just the balance does not look too happy

tomorrow will be little trades until this is sorted out.

Monday Morning (11 September), Markets just opened.

Futures not online yet ..
removed all TP on GBPAUD helping the UB-Noise Algo (was hoping it may go down deeper, as the Strategy has a 600$ drawdown over the weekend)

went Quickly Long on BTCUSD and AUDJPY with very little Bias
just some Scalp trades as i can not really find a clear target

i think AUDJPY will go into the 88AUD Area today …

closed 3 Scalp Trades 1 on BTCUSD

and later AUFJPY 2 more scalps

it is kind of Tricky now as there are no Futures visible yet and the Diviation is really tiny.

got myself into some Whipsaw action ..

closed all at Breakeven .. as i not was live on Youtube anyway.

Live action was kind of a mess.. covered with 53 Trades

and lucky went out Positive afterweards.. not somethings to copy !
guess the Picture speaks for itself

Philosophy of Success

530   September 8, 2017 13:11   AoFX   Traders Library Philosophy  

Did you know that Lion does not succeed in hunting except in a quarter of his attempts, that is, he fails in 75% of his attempts and succeeds in only 25% of them?

Despite this small proportion of which most of the predators participate, it is impossible for Lion to despair of attempts to hunt and hunt.

The main reason for this is not hunger, as some might think, but the assimilation of the animals into the law of “wasted efforts”, the law in which all nature works

• Half of Fish eggs are eaten.
• Half of Bears die before puberty
• The rain of the world is falling in the ocean
• most of the seeds of trees are eaten by birds

Only human beings reject this natural law And the success is not to have a life biography free of pitfalls and hiccups … but the success is to walk over your mistakes And go beyond every stage where your efforts wasted and look forward to the next stage .. If there was a word summarizing this world will be simply: (continue)
