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.

<szubaark> NQ is the wild card

ER and ES are in sync

<domvert> dont like this action 10:40

but should get a push up

<NihabaAshi> Long ER2 @ 762.40 -> small size 10:46

Will be a tough trade because I got no support from Oil and Gold. 10:47

Thus, ER2 is on its own.

<silo> gold and oil are going up too now though 10:48

same direction as this er2 bounce no?

<NihabaAshi> not since my entry

<silo> h ok 10:49

<NihabaAshi> Before my entry...I'm not concerned about that.

I'm only interested in Gold and Oil "after" my entry.

Oil trying to help but Gold not in the picture just yet. 10:50

<szubaark> Volatility spike downward

<NihabaAshi> volatility breakout but no spike before it. 10:51

<szubaark> Lets see if we get a breakout

<NihabaAshi> Will wait and see because of that.

<szubaark> NQ on its own today, lets see if ES becomes the leader 10:54

<NihabaAshi> Too bad I had to cut that prior Short early because of the kids.

That's life of trading as a retail trader from home :)

szu...this short is an intuition trade that's involved with the prior Short... 11:23

Thus, a chaser in many ways. 11:24

<szubaark> trend is down, so why not go with trend.

<NihabaAshi> bingo
