July 2018


This page documents what is possible to achieve with short term trade scalping. First are the month's statistic worksheets followed by the daily trades. 

************************************************************************




July 2018 trades
The charts below are my daily trades for the entire month. 
 The combined charts have  1) entry rationals, 2) results and  often 3) what happened after the trade was closed. All tick Gain/Loss numbers and net dollar amounts are adjusted to show just 1 contract per trade. Daily summaries (after commission) are posted below each Session Separator.
 Date / day ... Winning / Losing / Break-even ... Gross tick Gain/Loss ... Net Dollar amount

Notes for July
Increased grid lines on the YM to 20 point...Seems it's trade-able ranges have expanded...
