Learning Forex the Electrofx way, part 2, Going Live!
a place to keep a journal of my live trading activities. the first part of this thread, was for my paper trading journey of forex trading education, now i come to the live trading part of my forex trading education. apparently it's much harder to trade real money so i'm starting with small risk trading for now to start getting used to it.

Time to go Live

 

so i took the plunge and decided to test myself with some real money. i plan to trade with only a 5 dollar risk to test if i can muster the discipline and self control to execute only trades that follow all my rules. even if that means no trades on some days.

 

i plan to rate my trades as i take them and after they close. this will help me work on my problem areas 🙂 it will also allow me to work out some kind of rating system for my own trading.

 

so yeah the trade should be screen shot before and after if possible, with a note on my sentiments about the trade before i took it. maybe a quick few words about what kind of trade it is.

 

i think i will only allow myself to trade picture perfect set ups. finish with the paper trade care free experimental trades lol.

 

so, lets see how things go, lets do this thing......

The following users say thank you to WeeMee for this useful post:

first attempt is a sell continuation attempt from a good but if not perfect location

fits all the rules and feel its an 8

not looking great right now.** Register Here for Free Membership to see this image/link **

 

well so much for that. after thinking about this trade i think i needed to wait for a double reaction to take the sell. i guess i was over anxious to get started.

thank you.

didnt catch anything really good, then let myself take this ej buy. basically a third gray wave trade, it took ages of back and forth, but did make the target. i was waiting the whole time for the purp continuation to trigger, but it didnt so far. i was only about 60% sure of this.

gold had a nice sell set up, but i some how didnt realize how good it was till it was too late 🙂 but for the rest i didnt find anything worth trying. so i spent most of my time on screen to get all the meta traders their histories. basically have 3 set up, each with a pair of markets. eu and gu, au and ej, uj and gold. didnt find the UJ histories on the site so copy pasted them from the demo account. seems to work.

double reaction for a counter trend 1 to 1, was about 75% sure

went for a audusd buy, how would you rate this trade from 1 to 10 Sjoerd?

 

tried to enter this gold sell on a 3 bar, but yeah it's not really a level 1.  am realizing that i repeated one of my mistakes when i opened the gold sell.

pretty good trade if you ask me Omar 🙂 nice setup... you can see one small red candle at you last trigger point but it wasn't enhough to be a black line but really nice trade overall... next box was an option for a better target but i would have done the same thing as you did 😉 sooooo let's give it a 9!!

first trade of the day was a loss on the uj,

 

then i found this, not perfect set up but with the heavy down trend i thought it would work

funny trade, was going for 3rd purp wave  sell

market got crazy and i got slippage that doubled my profit lol

talk about riding on the coat tails of the big money players eh? rofl. someone put such a big trade that it literally took the price right through my lpt and even my tp was unable to be respected it went past it so fast. there was only just some yellow news a few minutes before. the move came out of no where.
