My FAILED system...

Hello Traders,

I havent been around because i emptied my mini account and took some needed vacations.
I want to post my system, because maybe through your knowledge we could tune it up. Here are some bullets of my system:

Mini Account : $350
Broker: Gft
Lasted: 9 days
  • Focused on one currency EUR/USD
  • Open 3-15 positions (one at a time) per day
  • Stop loss : $12 -$20 (5.7%)
  • Good Tecnical analyisis, bad timing
  • Traded against trend
  • Indicators: MACD, Slow & Fast Stochastics
  • Looked for Divergence- one time frame yes another no
  • Multi time Frames Weekly Daily, 8 hrs, 4 hrs, 1 hrs 30, 15 5min
  • Bad time zone: Im in mexico i traded after NY session
  • When Stopped, Immediately opened another position
  • Did not study moving price averages
  • Did not check daily, weekly, monthly % performances
  • To many trades per day
This is just some of the things i think i did incorrectly. Am i missing something????

It would be great if you posted some of your ideas-experiences-opinios about my trading system.

Very thankful
Dimitri
