closed 2 trades for -24 pips each but this one I am short, I will let market decide. if I lose will stay away till market breaks out and start running.
I am trading reduced size for now. It's pity I was not watching yesterday New York full session.

shorted again but closed for few pips as price started moving against me before going to previous low. will restart watching Numex session. will stop for now.
I am really tentative now as I am around 20%.
Outside the very beginning of my trading when I doubled 2 demos and almost doubled one live account in 2008 thanks to high volatility and bad risk management I have not been able to cross 20% with sound principles. It is fifth time so , I am a little bit nervous.
I see i was indeed right again but closed early.

Ok, I decided. Account I have been trading so far is named Oil 20% a.
I feel that I was trading differently this week. Too tentative and too much thoughts about 20% level.
I guess it was a lucky coincidence that I actually made a couple of trades on that account which is at the office.
I called this account OIL 20% b continuation and I will trade this account now until I am hopefully another around 20% up.

I am neutral for now.
I am thinking of entering into trades partially. Like setting small position with wider stop, then if price is doing what I lke adding to position and decreasing stoop until full size is in place and ideally stop at BE and partial profit taken.

6% down. I have no idea why these 20% is so hard to break. I just stop thinking straight. after 100 break out failed I should have shorted. I did go short, but then closed it at small loss while it was a good entry and went long and took big position.
I gotta take it slowly since now on.

good morning chikot,
i hope that your trading is progressing well for you.
as a friend, i might suggest that you turn off the computer and spend some time with your lovely bride.
run out and find for her some pretty flowers.
not store bought flowers, pick em from the wild.
tell her that she is special.
do not talk to her about trading.
listen to her.
tell her that you love her.
take a few days off maybe.

Price clearly respecting trend line which is not very visible yet. but all three attempts to break below 94 ended a little bit higher. I am thinking accumulation is going on. I see there was a great long opportunity unfortunately I was not in front PC. I would go long when 97 got broken to the upside. Another attempt at 100? I think guys gonna run this bunny higher than 100. I wonder when. Having opinioons already set me back, so I 'd better watch out.
