Remember though I have almost given up on trading stocks due to work and have been creating a market timing system based on the QQQQs (looking at overbought and oversold conditions).Market Monkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227127173926743947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7812506568427736065.post-59505815622122947462008-05-01T13:11:00.000-07:002008-05-01T13:11:00.000-07:00It's my trading results for realized trading in Ap...It's my trading results for realized trading in April. I was in the negative through the first 25-30 trades, went positive and then didn't look back from there. What stood out to me was how much my profits came in bunches and then I'd go sideways / slight down for a while.<BR/><BR/>I actually put on far less than 360ish trade 'ideas'- If I enter something with say 2000 shares but 500 at a time and then sell 500 at a time it'd count that as 4 trades rather than 1.<BR/><BR/>I'd be interested to see what top traders equity curves look like. I wonder if they go through the same sideways / down action or if they have less of that than I do.Johnson's Trading Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726694655247642222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7812506568427736065.post-72408066337743407412008-05-01T13:05:00.000-07:002008-05-01T13:05:00.000-07:00hey J. what does this graph mean exactly? it sound...hey J. what does this graph mean exactly? it sounds like good news tho.Stewiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18426469322190080207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7812506568427736065.post-17565422992142044922008-04-30T21:11:00.000-07:002008-04-30T21:11:00.000-07:00Thanks MM.

I always take a few days and don't even look at the market and fine I come back with a fresh perspective that often leads to big gains for my portfolio. Maybe give that a try?<BR/><BR/>You still running scans in TC? I'd be interested in hearing what you are looking at.Johnson's Trading Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726694655247642222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7812506568427736065.post-40192791914829782952008-04-30T19:57:00.000-07:002008-04-30T19:57:00.000-07:00Congrats on a great month!Congrats on a great month!Market Monkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227127173926743947noreply@blogger.com
