awesome job on that calculator Rob, will be interesting to see how it goes.

 

did just a few trades yesterday, and 1 so far today. EJ going well

as you can see i jumped out the m33 buy when it gave a trigger to the down side that was very close to my original tp, shown by the red line. i moved the tp up thinking the area would break as the move up was strong and fast, but it didnt so i escaped at a nice 1 to 1

 

this trade was as close to original tp as you can get without triggering the tp, lol. but yeah i consider it a well managed trade as the counter trigger was a level 1 style trigger on the m33

 

well it looks like this one would have hit even my higher tp eventually

Took a SPY (SP 500) PUT options position at market close on Friday.  Exited at market open today for a quick 20% gain.

nice one Rob.

any new info on your project? if you need aid with demo testing it i'd be glad to help. as you said, use it for a extra bit of confirmation on the side of any trade one is contemplating entering.

 

well my US close trades are both still running, if they lose it will be 5 losses 2 wins today, if they make it it will be 4 wins to 3 losses, lol.

Thanks for the comment.

I am trying to get organized with the times changing.  Need to get my schedule in order.  I really feel like we should be able to program something that we could all benefit from. Stay tuned.

ej us open sell trade, got closed by setting up to go north.

** Register Here for Free Membership to see this image/link **

the sp500 on the other hand went to profit nicely, with only 1 small pause

** Register Here for Free Membership to see this image/link **

as you can see they are not awesome trades, i'm really going for consistency so not aiming for more then 1 to 1 unless it really has space. i do try to go over 1 to 1, even if it's just a few pips more reward then risk.

edited to add:

damn it seems the ej sell would have worked, i chickened out early. i have done that a couple of times in the recent days. either because i didnt want to leave a trade open overnight, or cause it looked to be setting up to go the wrong way on the m33. this one just made my target, problem was the target was the second one, bit higher risk, so when the m33 looked to be turning, i closed early with only 30 % of the profit i could have had.

still my trade selection capabilities are looking a whole lot better recently.

Keep it up.  scored another small win on the EU today.  But the general sideways action has been tough to call lately.  not much news and the Fed is still undecided.

Semi lame week for trading

Spoke tooooo soon

The market close trade was spot on today so loaded up and traded in the money DIA puts.

Would have liked to hold because I am sure this will sink after market close, but such a large options position over night, somewhat risky!  So took the $ and ran, commissions are a bitch on these though.

Waited until Price moved back to support and news on the EU was done to take this one.  Used the ZTM and a high lot to score a very nice gain to end the week.

Set it and forgot about it.

Nice high prob trade and 2 lot.  Would have let it run and expect a LL here but, no time to watch the trade and the gain was substantial for a Friday.  So I banked it.

Cheers
