MAY 2015 Trades



May 2015 Trade Statistics and activity

Took fewer trades than last month - stellar Win/Loss Ratio and Ave. Win percentage as a result.
Ave. Tick Gain/Loss numbers and Tick Win/Loss ratio much lower than last month due to trading the RUT almost exclusively.
 Bottom line was OK considering the low number of trades taken.






This page is a daily statistical summary including most of my trades. The charts usually combine before
 and after snapshots - one that captures what I saw as entry rationals and the other for the results.

 I usually won't hold a position through 9:30 when the majors open for the reason below...
Reverse divergences in an up trend on the 60 tick...a nice set up for a Continuation Slingshot 
Great signals mixed between the 30 and 60 tick...

Was not paying attention for this...
 Scalped a bit on this Continuation Sling...
Playing the TLB Re-Test after DIV & 2B...was taking too long - 
no pop after 5 minutes with diminishing activity...

No sense giving any back this late in the day... 

Wednesday 05/06/2015...no trades
Long tails printed on the dailies. The past two days have had 50-60% higher volume than I've seen in weeks -
Maybe not quite "blow-out bottom" volume but combined with the tails and with prices flirting with 
their respective trend lines, we could be on our way back up again.
Late day MOF patterns reversed the down trends...the Russell took it to the bank...

Tuesday 05/05/2015...1/4/2...-12 or -$90
Good signals are failing to produce winning trades...

Friday 05/01/2015...1/0/1...+17 or +$73
