Back in 2012 Pav mailed me with a request for help.
His trading was erratic and he was dis heartened with his results.
So we ran a few charts of his to see how I could help.
Discretionary technical trading would in my view be one of the hardest
trading methods I know of to master. Yet one of the simplest.
This is where Pav was engaged---discretionary---VSA based.
It soon became clear that the easiest way to do this would be for me to
run a portfolio in real-time. Mark up charts on an as necessary basis and
send them to Pav so he could see the Setups/Trade/stops/Trade management/Trailing stops/
Watch lists/Pyramiding and of course Exits in a real-time running portfolio.
The practical application rather than chart theory.
So in Jan (13/1) that's what we started. Pav tells me he has had some light bulb moments.
There are a few Fundamental methods running on ASF but not a single Technical one.
The portfolio has been documented by Pav who keeps an up to date spread sheet of
all past and present trades.
To now the portfolio is running at +50% on initial capital since inception in January.
87 emails and around 125 charts.Of course a heap of other interesting stats on Drawdown win Loss etc.
Ive had a chat to Pav and Joe and if there is enough interest we (Pav and I) are happy to run it a week behind real-time as the
Last time I did this ASIC was all over the website getting excited---I don't have a licence.
It takes a bit of work and Ill email Joe in R/Time for verification---You'll see it a week later.
We thought that there maybe some in the same boat as Pav was,and that in the future it could serve as a point of reference a place to ask direct questions and see the practical application of a technical methodology.
If you have an interest then let me/us (Pav) know below.
