I haven’t posted for a wee while and the reason being was that my mind was completely preoccupied with some other things of which I won’t bore you with. I have thought about my trading however and have been frustrated how difficult it just is. I have been attempting to trade the markets for what seems like ages yet still, I don’t seem any closer to cracking it. There are times of brilliance and times of sheer despair and frustration…. for those who have been following my blog, you’ll note that I had joined a trading academy. Unfortunately, things didn’t work out with those guys, they unexpected terminated my account and still demand payment.. I hadn’t even got the professional training which they talked about so I’m in dispute with them currently.

I have been on a few courses also and it’s about finding the time (I only have evenings to play with due to my 9-to-5 job). It would be good if I were at the stage where I could just trade but alas, I’m not at that stage as yet.

This blog generates money however through sponsorship and advertising and actually covers my trading losses (except for the monies that the trading academy are screwing me for).

Anyway, I did trade today, a short on the DOW at 11389 and got +18.

I just found a free program which allows you to keep a trading journal for free. I’ve been looking for something like this and it looks great. However, I have just tried to import a spreadsheet of some of my earlier trades on a trading account and it failed… but then again, I didn’t read the instructions all that carefully.
