[belflan]

aapl is droppinggggggggg!

 

[belflan]

5min macci o/s and turning

if I get a good spike down i'll close rimm

 

[belflan]

10min macci now o/s

with exit rimm on next 1min macci cycle

 

[belflan]

rimm close

 

[belflan]

profit on rimm

$449

 

[belflan]

short aapl

 

[belflan]

reason for above trade

10min flating out

5min turn

amzn and rimm already gone

because the 10min is at o/s level i will hold for short period only look for exit on 5min & 1min macci

 

[belflan]

aapl closed

 

[belflan]

loss on aapl

$31

reason for exit, my market analysis didn't work out

10min macci turn up, 5 min turn up

 

[belflan]

to late for any more trades tonight, would only go short tonight, and I think the market could spike up to close

 

[belflan]

running total

total tonight = $802

total total = $3,989

good trading

hmmm,

I havn't allowed for slippage in this test.

could anyone advise if this is likely to be a problem at these position sizes on aapl rimm or amzn in live trading?

thanks

I've gone over all of my 53 trades on this thread. In some of the early trades I did not allow for commission etc.

I've ajusted the running total to suit

It's now $3,820

I have now got all trades in a spread sheet so it will be easier to monitor

I'll post the stats on a weekly/monthly bases maybe

So far (and remember very early days) =

days traded = 12

Trades = 54
wins = 30
losses = 18
B/E or small win/loss = 5

win % = 57%
loss % = 34%

Average win = $206
Average loss = $132

total return on account = 12.73%
return per day on account = 1.06%

early days tho

Hi Glen

Great work so far; nice one

Did you happen to record (what I call) 'Max Pain' on each trade? In other words, how many (max) dollars did each trade go against you before finally being closed.

Many Thanks
Steve

hi Steve

I didn't in the past, and its imposible for me to now do this looking back (i've tried)

I will be doing this from now on tho, in some way or other within my spread sheet.

taking on board what Frank has been saying, i think i will look at intra trade draw downs for all positions open at any one time (total pain if you like)

I beleive this figure would have been just over $1,000 in the test so far

I think this 'pain' figure will be one of the most important things to come out of this test before going live

thanks
Glen
