September 2016 Trade Statistics and activity
Impressive numbers this month...perhaps due to fewer trades?
September 2016 trades
The charts below are my trades for the entire month.
The tick Gain/Loss numbers and net dollar amounts have been adjusted to show just 1 contract for each trade.
The charts usually combine what I saw as entry rationals and another for the results of that trade.
Often I'll include a chart of what happened after the trade was closed. (All of my stop-outs are not included)
A summary of result statistics are included above the 1st trade chart of each day:
Day & Date ... Winning / Losing / Break-even ... tick Gain/Loss and Net Dollar amount (after commissions)
