One of the statistics I keep from my trading is the number and percentages of winning trades and losing trades.
I always try to win of course but sometimes, it just doesn't happen. This table shows the breakdown of the figures for the most recent week, and also since I started keeping this record, in October 2009.
As you can see, the record shows that I'm 'doing alright!', but actually I'm very disappointed with these figures, because they would've been much better if I hadn't listened to some nay-sayers a few months ago.
At that time I was talked into trying a different approach to trading, and it reflects here, because at the end of week 30, the SINCE START figures were 790 (99.62%) wins, and 3 (0.38%) losses!
This 'set-back' had 2 effects on my trading - one was to bring DOUBT into my decision-making, and the other was to add to STRESS levels, which none of us need!
But don't worry, I'm ignoring the nay-sayers again, and trading 'my way'.
Lately the opportunities do seem to be a bit less obvious, but it'll get better!
