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.

<eminitrader> Exited all ES Long @ 1508.25 --> + 2 11:08

<NihabaAshi> Long ER2 @ 785.50 -> small size

<eminitrader> still down 1k :(

<szubaark> we just need re-test of highs 11:09

<pat255> hmmm took a stop? :(

<eminitrader> yep 2

<pat255> geez ...:(

<NihabaAshi> Gold and Oil giving support for my Long but ER2 not responding 11:10

<eminitrader> ym es nq not responding either ..

es at support 11:11

<NihabaAshi> Exited ER2 Long @ 784.60 --> - 0.9

Long ER2 @ 785.00 -> small size 11:12

Got shook easily out of that Short :(

<eminitrader> Long ES @ 1508

<NihabaAshi> meant long 11:13

I'm about $200 dollars away from going into profit protection mode. 11:14

<eminitrader> Long ES @ 1507 -> Add 11:15

<NihabaAshi> support still there but ER2 still not responding :(

<Pepe> when you made first trade with 10 contract you made 2900 dollars?

<NihabaAshi> No

I was only 6 contracts on the first trade of the day.

<Pepe> ok, I am sorry 11:16

<NihabaAshi> Had I not got a late entry (reaction lag) I would have gone 9 contracts

My goal today is 2k in profits

<Pepe> nice

nice weekend :)

<NihabaAshi> nice only if I reach my goal :)

<Pepe> :) 11:17

<NihabaAshi> Yeah...gotta do some more XMAS shopping

<Pepe> :) yes

<NihabaAshi> The price action moved too fast in that first minute for me to get my position size management correct. 11:18

In fact, had it dropped a few more ticks in that price area...

I would have gone 1 - 3 contracts only

<szubaark> Niha, I like your idea of Pretecting Profits after you reach yur Goal, as that keeps you from Overtrading. 11:19

<NihabaAshi> Nature of ER2...it moves fast and we need to adjust our position size accordingly

szu...its also a statistical thing for me. 11:20

I tend to make "more trading mistakes" after a first trade that was a big winner.

Mental laziness or call it whatever you want. 11:21

Statistically I'm prone to losses after a first trade that was a big winner.

Simply, its a weakness and this is how I manage (control) that weakness via reducing my position size dramatically. 11:22

<Ronin> Ashi waht you should do is time your entries, I use to make same mistake and that simple tactic change everything

<Trader22> nods; same here : always reduce size after a great winner or walk away for day

<NihabaAshi> Yep 11:23

Most of the time (many in here see it often)...

I call it a day.

<Nesi> yup

<NihabaAshi> However, currently I'm trying to fine tune a new method to add to my current list of methods. 11:24

<Ronin> NQ is rolling over leading the way down

<NihabaAshi> Therefore, I keep trading with small size in the new method.

<Ronin> when ES tested 1506, waited for the next two 5min bars to see if there was a second test, sure enough, that disqualified the Long Trade 11:27

<NihabaAshi> I'm losing my patience on this Long :( 11:28

It's stuck in a s/r zone

<startrader> Shorts ES @ 1507.75 «« paper »» 11:31

<silo> market most likely heading higher in a bit

<NihabaAshi> Exited ER2 Long @ 785.10 --> + 0.1

<silo> not showing real bullish strength yet

<NihabaAshi> :(

Can't do too much when the patience has reached its threshold 11:35

<silo> here comes the move

<Ronin> buy limit to enter long ES @ 1508.75 «« Scalp »»

<KnnK> Long ER2 @ 785.5

<silo> you guys seeing the same in futures?

i dont have futures quotes :)

<Ronin> test and break of 1509 trendline changed the bias 11:37

<KnnK> Exited 1/2 ER2 Long @ 786.7 --> + 1.2 11:38

<Ronin> cancelled all open limit orders «« Scalp »» 11:39

<NihabaAshi> Long ER2 @ 787.10 -> small size 11:44

Exited ER2 Long @ 788.20 --> + 1.1 11:46

<Pepe> very nice

<NihabaAshi> It was a tricky trade... 11:47

Usually I play the pullback (hope and wait for one to occur to get Long).

<werner> :)

<NihabaAshi> However, the volatility contracted very fast while ticking upwards...

Good risk to get Long right away because it was leaning on a volatility spike "upwards". 11:48

<eminitrader> lost my internet connection 11:49

<NihabaAshi> Had price ticked sideways or slightly downward on the contracting volatility...

I would have waited for a price pullback.

<eminitrader> Exited 1/2 ES Long @ 1512 --> + 5 11:50

hld 10

<rickf> nice em!

<NihabaAshi> I'm officially in profit protection mode because I've reached my profit goal for the day.

<Brutus> ex emt

<eminitrader> thats got me 1.5 k positive :))

<NihabaAshi> Thus, 1 contract only for me for the remainder of the trading day. 11:51

<eminitrader> thx r b

<werner> that contracting volatility...you see that in times and sales or...?

<eminitrader> exit stop raised ES @ 1408

<Guest35179> does anyone know how to display on this mIrc the prior postings for the day before one logs in? like now the screen is blank from when i started but would be nice to see prior discussions 12:35

<NihabaAshi> Guest...only way you have access to prior discussions is when I update them at the following link @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/RecentTrad es.htm 12:39

I usually do an update to bring them current on Mon, Weds and Fri.

<Trader22> NihabaAshi: so any thoughts eod? 1515 up gap fill or 1500-05 down gap fill? 12:40

<Guest35179> you mean when i log in here there is no way to see the prior discussions in here? 12:41

<silo> 13611.75 is key support area on dow

<NihabaAshi> I'm still bullish until something "very negative" happens in the world to negate that bail out of some of the subprime mortgage crisis 12:42

Simply, I think higher into the close.

<silo> me too

too many pluses

here's my analysis

<Trader22> i've spent the last 30min looking at many charts

<Brutus> tools - options - logging - reload logs -channels

<NihabaAshi> Regardless, if I see something to short...

I'll short :)

<Trader22> I admit i'm rather no-clue

<Brutus> enable logging of channels 12:43

<silo> wednesday was the followthrough day per IBD... stating a reversal from this downtrend

<Trader22> my only contra trend thought is folks expecting eod uptick; so perhaps we get the opposite

<silo> + leadership stocks holding nicely since last friday

even if the indexes fell 2 straight days

<Trader22> but Tue FOMC skews all thoughts really

<Guest35179> B, how?

<silo> + rate cut around the corner

+bush plan

<Guest35179> i look for it, thanks B 12:45

<silo> if we dont get a rate cut... that would mean they think the market doesn't need as much help

but then why did the government made such a drastic move when bush comes out about freezing the interest rate for 5 years

<pat255> all politics but very little to help folks who need it .. 12:46

<silo> so what's the political agenda behind it

<pat255> to look good ..while doing very little .. 12:47

why was it allowed ..?
