Monthly results Month: June Trades: 23 Wins: 10 Losses: 13 Monthly Total: +$94.94 Yearly Total: $106.92 Month feeling: It was a strange month, big caps were breaking out and hitting new highs, but small caps had plenty of 1 day runners, as for multi day runners so poor, I havent got a pattern for 1 dayers yet, I can’t split myself to thin, so I was very limited this month and avoided temptation to play new patterns I was not tracking, so didn’t trade much and felt when I did a lot were poorer types and even so I still ended in the green and sadly missed a few great runners, that I simply misread. What Worked: FGDB has 6 trades, 2 wins and 4 losses, so these worked but they just was not many about, same goes for 3DS with 4 wins and 5 losses and just a couple of SGD worgs which I still count in my random group as not got a proper playbook for these as yet. What failed. Basically multi day runners were so rare this month, it led to not many of the FGDB or 3DS or even SGD worgs, so nothing from my playbook really worked this month. Best Trade: NAMM, SGD worg, $46 +23%, recognised a big order sat on the bid, while it consolidated for 1 hour, right before 8am, risk was only 3c, wasn’t actually green yet, this was quite a good few positives ticking boxed and the best part the r/r was great so was worth the early entry and it was easily at 1/10 trade and worked like the best do and with me from the get go. Worst Trade: CRVO, 3DS, -$19, -9%, had a plan for this as was on wl, but was already in another trade, seen this spiked and jumped in, literally up and then way down, so just cut losses quickly and took double the loss as fell that quick, but basically, I sold the bottom of the run, if I had not of panicked or even simply waited for a better entry and accessed the tickers action, I would have had a very nice winner as had a great spike after. What work have I done this month: Been to every Bohen pmp, some Bohen dd, some Bryce & Kaleb but every Midnight madness, all the challenge webinars, also Roland Wolf was on live for a week, which was interesting to hear how he literally never buys high and is quite a contrast from Sykes, although “cut losses quickly” is still with him and me and I have not problem ever cutting when they sl is hit, back listening to a traders journey too and from work so 5 hours a week minimum of podcasts, also every night, I got through my watchlist and trades for the day and print and analyse and journal, as well on a Saturday morning, getting up very early to spend at 3-4 hours going through the weeks trades I made and missed and to see how I could of traded better still from my analysing or how I could of entered ones I missed, also doing more detailed tracking on FGDB and 3DS patterns, although I am taking the odd SGD worg, I am not tracking these yet as I don’t want to spread myself to thinly, also still reading plenty, as they help me get to sleep, so I am thinking of trading from when I get up to I go to bed. What have I learnt: Each month, I feel I have learnt so much more than the last month, but always feel its like a drop in the ocean, I have learnt claude is going to be integral now in my journey, both as a journal and playbook maker, as it helps so much with quickly making the stats for my patterns, I feel my pattern recognition is getting better, but on the 3DS pattern I feel I need a point that I always need to enter at, if the ticker is at least a B setup on my tracker, as I did miss a couple as they simple looked weak, only to turn out very strong, but the start if I took an entry at the point, even so volume was very low, it felt more like a leap of faith, so I need to data to back up my entries, so I will learn more on this and maybe have a few new columns in my excel spreadsheets for these. What do I need to work hard on: I feel I need to work on entries and exits, but also know its been slim pickings on these patterns this month, so I can’t be too hard on myself. Goal for next month: Hoping next month there are more FGDB and 3DS to get my teeth into, as I love learning and just want you learn everything I can regarding tracking and planning for these patterns, but I learn so much more seeing and tracking these real time, so hopeful more will come and if not I will try to follow this months way and keep away from 1 day runners I have no plan for and just trade from my playbook.
