Profit/Loss Statement

General Strategy Info: The above profit/loss info represents trades by M.A. Perry (a.k.a. NihabaAshi) only and all trades were posted in realtime as shown in the below chat log.

Although I'm not familiar with the trade methods used by most members of #FuturesTrades, I use a rule based (no subjectivity) methodology that involves WRB Analysis.

There is some subjectivity involved with some of my trades when I'm developing a new strategy (hence the name TheStrategyLab.com) that uses WRB Analysis.

In fact, many of my trades or profit targets will occur within key WRB support/resistance zones because these price areas gives me a better understanding of key changes in supply demand.

Traditional pivot point analysis or traditional s/r levels are inadequate in understanding changes in supply/demand of the Russell 2000 Emini ER2 or any other trading instrument of today's markets in comparison to WRB Analysis.

WRB Analysis is also a key aspect in my use of intermarket analysis (ex. Oil and Gold), market seasonal tendencies, volatility analysis and custom Japanese Candlestick patterns to complete my trading plan that results in consistent profits.

Further, position size management is a key aspect of my trading and I trade any where between 1 to 9 contracts per trade depending upon the volatility, pattern signal, seasonal tendencies or intuition.

All of my trades and commentary for today's market action (posted below) are via the user name NihabaAshi (Japanese Candlestick term) and I exclusively trade the Russell 2000 Emini ER2 futures even though I closely monitor other key markets so that I'll have a better understanding of ER2 price action.

With that said, today's trade posting chat log is below and it contains all my trades that were posted in realtime along with the trades of other members of #FuturesTrades.

Strategies
If your an independent trader looking for an edge to help you traverse around obstacles to profitable trading...a method that's well defined, gives you a better understanding of the markets, applicable for day trading, position trading, swing trading, market seasonal tendencies, position size management, intermarket analysis with a money back guaranteed policy...click here.

Trading Strategies ->   Strategies used by NihabaAshi, from entry to exit, exploit inefficiencies in the price action for profits of the following trading instruments via WRB Analysis and Intermarket Analysis: Emini Index Futures (EMD, ER2, ES, NQ, YM), EuroFX Futures (EC), Eurex Index Derivatives (DAX, ESTX50), Euronext Index Futures (FTSE100, CAC40), Treasury Futures (ZF, ZN, ZB), NYMEX Energy Futures (CL, NG, HO, QM), COMEX Metals Futures (GC), Forex Currencies (EurUsd, EurYen, UsdCdn), Exchange Traded Funds (DIA, GLD, OIH, IWM, QQQQ, SPY, XLE) and Hang Seng Index Futures (HSI)

<NihabaAshi> However, minutes before the open the major financial networks said there was a "normal FED meeting" and that no emergency rate cut was expected nor had any foundation. 09:47

That info is what gave me my Bearish Bias at the Open.

Market wasn't doing so hot and then the rumor gave it a little positivity soon after 7am est and then it became negative again when the rumor was proven to be just false hopes. 09:49

I would have been Short around 686.00 but I was late in getting my charts and broker platforms open :(

<silva> what news feed u listen to N? 09:50

<NihabaAshi> TV :)

<silva> lol k

<NihabaAshi> I have to subscribe to them so I can properly deduct my Cable Internet and Satalite bills as business deductions :)

<silva> good 09:52

<NihabaAshi> So far...Gold has been a "Flight to Quality" while the ES, YM, NQ, ER2, DAX has been declining 09:53

I'm now expecting a bigger price move with volatility spikes if Oil and Eminis, Eurex get in syncy 09:54

<lumenPharmer> l er 681

<NihabaAshi> Hopefully downward and not upwards.

Oil showing strength now. 09:55

<szubaark> Eminis trying hard to decide if to follow other key markets

<NihabaAshi> Exited 1/2 ER2 Long @ 687.50 --> + 1.8 10:16

As long as Gold, Oil with Eurex are still fighting hard to go higher... 10:18

I'll stick with ER2 just a little longer...into the next spike up or down.

Exited Remainder ER2 Long @ 689.00 --> + 3.3 10:20

<Spartan> Wont be able to trade all day, but I could see new lows happening today 11:03

<Tim_a1> if 1325 es solidly blows out as support, it wont be pretty

<Spartan> geat point, thanks for reminding me 11:04

<Tim_a1> 1325 es was may 2006 high, wave 3 of bull in elliot wave terms 11:05

<Tim_a1> i have a feeling that first weekly close below 1325 would come with a lot of damage, being too late for those who waited confirmation 11:17

<NihabaAshi> Looks like the price action near the intraday lows will be a nice staging area for Longs to attempt to drive this back upwards.

<Kn-Es> add 25.50 11:19

<megus> im confused out of my mind

<Tim_a1> my comment is more of the psychology of the big picture of long term hold people (which still affect the market) rather than day traders 11:20
