My E/U trade was stopped out about 15 minutes ago for a 3.50% profit. My U/C trade is currently still running and I have moved my stop loss to +1 pip if I was to be stopped out.

My view on E/U is currently still bullish and my view on U/C is still bearish. I'm looking for an entry on E/U around the area where price is at right now and I'm also looking to add to my U/C trade in the area where price is at on that pair right now also. As of right now E/U is at 1.3194 and U/C is at 0.9157.

As I'm dong something a bit different with my trading all trades I take this week will be with a risk of 1% and not 2%. After I see how my results go for this week will determine if I increase my risk or not.

Here is a screenshot of a trade I just took on E/U.

I also opened a new short on U/C at 0.9147. I did not get a screenshot of this but you will see it at the end of the day when I post my trading account statement.

This journal is fully transparent. You will see everything as I will not hide anything...the good...the bad...the ugly will all be displayed.

The two trades I just took are both looking a bit weak right now.

All of my trades have been closed and I'm currently up 1.28% for the day. My positions that I just entered recently were stopped out for losses.

I'm not waiting for a better signal.

Took more losses on the surge in price during news time (hint to never trade during the news time) and now I'm down -2.98% for the day.

My account is currently at $77.86.

I had a very nice friend of mine (who is a trader also) send me quite a few emails outlining so much for me. He was kind enough to share with me something he did in the past and told me to give it a shot.

I put his recommendations into motion tonight and I was able to take my trading account from $75.76 to $80.24 as of right now.

I've also added a few things to his recommendation to help me stay inline until I'm more proven with my trading.

If all goes well by the end of the month, I will post the indicators and rules that I have created for anybody who is interested.

My short from 3155 hit it's take profit at 3090 taking my account from $77.12 to $86.79 an increase of 12.54% on my account.

I will not be taking any more trades today. I wish you are profitable trading. I will be back online during the Asia session to see if something sets up.

I'm really focusing on my trading so I can become the trader that I want to be. After doing some thinking I have determined that I'm making posting in my journal much more difficult that it should be.

I've been trying to do much more than I should be. So from this point forward I will not worry about sharing indicators, outlining how I trade or any of that type of stuff.

I will just post the trades I take with enough information that if others want to check their charts, they will be able to see where I entered the trade at.

I will post just one post each day. Multiple post in a day was becoming a bit much, hence why I would forget to post on some days.

I will now post one screenshot of my account activity at the end of my trading day. To make it easier for me and those who are following along, I will post around noon PST each day (unless I'm away from my computer). The screenshot will show everything (except for the ticket number).

That's how I will be posting from this point forward.

Here is how my post will look each day. This is a screenshot from my trading activity yesterday.

Here is my trading screenshot for today. I was able to be patient and wait for the market to come to me rather than chase it and that patience paid off for me.

It feels good to see the hard work that I'm putting into my trading pay off. I know I have had a bumpy road in the past but the past two days I have really been focusing on trading properly and it feels good to see positive results from it.

My confidence in my ability to trade and one day take care of my family through my trading ability is starting to comeback and grow with each trade I take (even the losing trades that will be in the future because I still learn from them also).

I'm just trying to see my dreams become a reality. Like I said, I'm no longer concerned with the amount that I make. I know that if I trade correctly, the money will come. So I strive to trade correctly and let everything else fall into place as it may.

Hey there, I'm back!
You not being overly concerned is probably why you're doing just fine. I read through the pages and caught up with what's happening and see you're still at it. Looks like I forgot to hit the quote button for your other post, so I'll just submit this one and reply on that one.... having a moment of laziness.
