TGIF REPORT FOR THE WEEK OF -7/21/2017 +105 pips for a Gain of +1.22%/MTD +11.17% / YTD +43.07%Another great week of trading in the books. What made this a great week wasn’t a huge gain for the week but instead with a 50% Win ratio for the week(3 Wins and 3 Losses) I was still able to net 107 pips for a gain of over 1%. You can still profit with half of your trades being losses. You know the old saying cut your losses short and let your winners ride. Fortunately for me I don’t have to struggle emotionally to make those decision as my trading portfolio is completely 100% algorithmic...

TGIF REPORT 6/23/2017 a Gain of +16.3%, Net 280 pipsI have to say this week has been the best week of the portfolio performance since the launch. This week’s gain of over 16% pushed me through to the double digit club, erasing all previous losses and creating a new high. We still have one week left in the month to build upon this momentum of a 20% month. You will notice the lot sizes are not a fixed amount anymore as the correct money management strategy is being applied. Allowing larger lots to be applied in winning streaks as the account value increases and smaller lots taken in drawdo...

TGIF Report week ending June 9th for a Gain of +1.62%, Net 78 pips.Thursday was a busy day "Super Thursday" we had allot of information to deal with from James Comey testifying to the exit poll from Britains general election. I was glad I didn't have to have my hand on the pulse but instead watched the events unfold as they happened and watched the Algo's trade through it at the same time. This weeks trade of the week goes to the GBPUSD. I started off entering the pair earlier in the week(selling into strength) at 1.2879 and for the most part was in the red as much as -83pips...

Still not much action for the rest of the evening as I knew it was going to have to come down to Friday. Well Friday morning things got kicked off with that disappoi...

I found myself down 119pips mid week with it not looking good but wait there was a signal late Thursday for the NZDUSDpair that broke to the upside for 43 pips which at the same time EURUSD finally weekend against the dollars for 49.5 pips and allitle help from the rest of the pairs and I was able to close the gap coming in short -1.5pips for the week. Great to see the portfolio bounce back and finish strong. Well next week will be a short week with the US markets closed on Monday and t...

TGIF Report Week Ending May 19th Ended Positive -229 pips For The Week.What a week of disappointment, up enjoying the highs of what looked like another great week for an unsuspected sell off in the GBPUSD on Thursday erasing 100 pips to end flat in that pair(the algo adjusted the SL prior to reducing risk to Break-Even). With no current hedge any more(short on the other pairs) the market continued going against me with the dollar weakening. I'm not pissed that I ended the week negative that's part of trading, what pissed me off is how it ended. A 100 pips erased just like that late in ...

TGIF Report Week Ending May 12th Ended Positive +243 pips For The Week.What a great week it was, especially late in the week getting that hedge signal coming in for the EURUSD pair to go long while I was short on the other 3 pairs GBPUSD, AUDUSD,NZDUSD and it paid off nicely adding another 79pips to what was already a great week of trading. Once the data updates on here it should be me into the double digit club at just over a 11% which is a great feeling as my hard work is stating to payoff. Have a great weekend and stay tunred for next week TGIF Report.dannydigitalFX

It's not reflected yet but once myfx updates the account it will reflect it. When I started this project a year and half ago I wasn't able to create a new high as the portfolio was being build out during that period. The portfolio was completed at the end of December 2016 and started trading forward in January of this year and since then it has ...

Don't take my word for it read it for yourself from the CFTC, click here http://www.cftc.gov/PressRoom/PressReleases/pr7528-17#PrRoWMBL We now have how many options in the US for a retail Forex trader? Less options never brings upon better opportunity as there is less competitive competition with what's left.

Journal Entry 01/08/2017-Where the hell have I been? Happy New Years to all, It's been a crazy bumpy road but I finally got the beta portfolio done. If you have been following my journal or my weekly TGIF Reports you would've read the frustration and hard work I was putting in to trying to create, develop and complete my first portfolio. I had to unplug for those last few months in 2016 and put some ridiculous hours in but I'm glad to finally have the beta portfolio complete. I should be more excited but I'm not as I have allot of ground to make up performance wise If I'm g...

TGIF Report for week ending 8/5 Ended -73.5 pips. Well I wasn't able to break through and create a new high this week. This seems to be a place of resistance for the portfolio as we had a chance a few weeks ago(around the 8% cumulative return area)to get a new high and I wasn't able to get it back then either. Early this morning I was trending back nicely to the upside inches away from being back into positive territory and then 8:30am came and the jobs number dropped. Well let's just say I was on the wrong side of that trade but it's nothing I stress over, it's all part of...
