Simplifying is hard work

My January activity is progressing, but I underestimated the amount of focus and discipline it takes to ELIMINATE setups from you arsenal.

Regardless, I have the core setups I plan to focus on in 2009 and January has been a great month thus far. I want to do a few more weeks of trading before I resume posting setups on the blog, and I need to decide what direction I want to go with the blog as far as sharing setups and what I publish.

I hope everyone is enjoying a profitable January - keep checking back for updates.

    Is there a reason as to why you would not be publishing your trades?

    Time? Trade Secrets?

    Looking forward to the next post!

    X, nice to see you're having a great month so far. If I am not being too intrusive, how many # R's are you up for this month?

    I guess I am trying to understanding your definition of great, as I am only up 5R, which is 1/3 of my monthly goal.

    Thanks again, Ralph

    X, I think I'm hot on your tail. I believe JPM today and C yesterday would have been good setups for this "new" method.

    PDT - I publish about 80% of what I do, but everyone needs some secrets.

    Ralph - I don't measure my profits that way. I am at 80% of my monthly goal as of today.

    Alex - I'll take a look at those. I didn't trade either, but I miss more than I trade!

    X, Thanks for speedy response. To generate the 80% monthly target, how many trades did you place? For me, I had 14 trades for 33% target.

    BTW , congrats on the numbers.

    Thanks, Ralph

    PS: would you consider a one-on-one mentorship?
