092205 FX & e-MINI Trade Activities

2005-09-22T20:29:00.000-07:00

I am sorry for the delay folks. I have just been busy today with the transition to new FX platform, reorganizing our FX portfolios, checking out options for e-mini system automation, etc.

Day Trader result has been posted. Swing Trader's open positions were closed yesterday and did not trade today. My SELL STOP order for eMini Nasdaq did not get hit this morning - shy of 2 points. The eMini market was somewhat highly volatile today. All 3 minis we trade went ala forex seesaw of like 30 points. So, I decided to hold off the scalping edge this morning.

Our new Swing Trader will have 3 account portfolios. The Day Trader will also have a new Ten Pippers Account as soon as I get it set up.

More goodies are being planned so stay on trail.

WOW! What a Fun Day Trading E-Mini Russells 2000! FX trades did well, too!

2005-09-20T16:11:00.000-07:00

Yet, I miss the tail end dive of ER2 and all those points and ticks. Well, that's the fun and adventures in trading. I placed my SELL trade for 2 contracts of ER2Z5 (oh, that's the symbol for E-Mini Russells 2000 expiring Dec 05) at around 9:00 am at 672.90 with target take profit set at 666.30. I watched my profit/loss bounced up and down from -380 to +300. But this morning was one of those days, my sister asked me to do her a favor. So, when the bullish divergence showed up on my chart, I closed my position with 9 ticks or $180 profit. Darned it! I was faked out. Within minutes, ER dropped to 662.90, a full 10 points from my entry price at 2 contracts, that's $2,000 profit. I am gonna cry now! That's $1,820 profits missed. So, here are the lessons learned from today's adventure.

LESSON 8.2 - Don't do your sister a favor when you're in trade. LOL!
LESSON 8.3 - Have confidence with your trade and leave your Target Profit on. Mine was at 666.30 or a 6 points 6 ticks.

Heck, what am I complaining? When I started trading I was just going for a couple of BEER MONEY PROFIT! LOL! $100 dollars a day in Latin America or Southeast Asia goes a long way (lots of cases). hehehe! One more thing, I haven't had a losing day YET. Knock on wood.

Yeah, no complaints here. Our Forex Day Trader did over $800.00 and the Swing Trader is now up at over $4,000.00. Now, that's about how much you will need to get by in the USA. LOL!

'Till tomorrow. Have FUN n ADVENTURES in your TRADING! Best of luck to all of you.

The Beginning...

2005-09-06T08:19:00.000-07:00

Well, here I am blogging away my adventures in forex trading. I can't believe I even made it here to The Blog. Hmmmm! How do I start this first post? It's a long story to begin with how I got started so I'll have a page or two later on, link from here in case your inquiring mind wants to know.

I finally finished the header description after few days and on to this first post. Well, I have been busy working with our J.E.T Traders team and in completing our forward testing of our newly developed F-89 Kamikazee Auto Pilot Trader. I believe we have finally arrived in our quest for a simple, viable, and profitable system.

In the next few days, I will be posting our adventures with this system with trade results, etc.. So, stay tune and on trail.
