Profit/Loss Statement |
General Strategy Info: The above profit/loss info represents trades by M.A. Perry (a.k.a. NihabaAshi - martial arts and Japanese Candlestick term) only and all trades were posted in real-time within 5 seconds after entry or exit as shown in the below chat log.
Also, I'm the moderator of #FuturesTrades and I use the below chat log as feedback to critical trading information that's not available when I review my broker statements nor any statistical analysis of my trading.
Further, although I'm not familiar with the trade methods used by most members of #FuturesTrades, I use a rule based methodology (very objective) that involves price action only trading (no indicators).
There is some subjectivity involved with some of my trades when I'm developing a new entry signal or new trade management (hence the name TheStrategyLab.com).
In addition, my intermarket analysis allows me to switch and profitably trade any other trading instrument whenever I want if/when I don't want to trade the Russell 2000 ER2 Emini Futures.
With that said, today's trade posting chat log is below and it contains all my trades that were posted in real-time along with the trades of other members of #FuturesTrades.

Time Zone Info Chat Log below is eastern standard time (est) - New York City, U.S.A and/or Montréal, Canada time zone.
