NoRhino's Trading Blog

I have now rented an office and set it all up. I will begin trading sometime this week. This blog is quite old now and i really hope from this point onwards i will be doing this every day for years to come. There have been set backs and good trading results infact but i havent quite ever made it properly and that has really been almost entirely due to outside factors. At the same time I am yet to really trade outright on a single market live with positive results, but i have only ever traded outright for 2 days. I traded for almost 2 years at a prop firm initially but that was trading spreads and i made very little for myself after desk fees and such. It was when i got very sick with glandular fever and my stuff was stolen in my flat, family problems, girl broke up with me all within a month it caused me to quit trading with that prop firm. Since then its been a battle and life just went in another direction. But here I am trying because I feel this is what i love and this is what i am good at or would have been good at.

I have been trading on the simulator for a few weeks but i have changed to commodities. I am havin treeg good results.

I have had a lot happen in recent years, some too personal to share but i feel my mind sometimes getting so frustrated with people and life, i dont really show it unless i know the person extremely well. I feel like my mind weights factors and maps possible likely paths and i see the big picture. I researched in my spare time from time to time and after discovering more about the mind, synesthesia, which could actually explain why i can kind of 'see' huge mappings and weightings in my head, but someone told me i may be gifted, who knows me very well and they were reading a book on it. I didnt think so but naturally i read up on it and discovered i fit the traits extremely well. I read more and more and althought i never considered an IQ test as accurate i read how they are actually a pretty good measure of 'g' fluid intelligence, which i kinda gatherered, i expect some pretty high correlation naturally.. Its the same for digit spans, which i can do 10 or 11 digits.. 7 is average. Anyway i decided an IQ test would be a good starting point. After all i like challenges. I went along and did the test, result was 142 IQ, 99.744th percentile. Thing is i never use good english, long words.. Lol. Im not that annoying guy who does that, but ive been hiding myself a long time. I guess naturally i just learnt to cope and fit better, i hate changing myself, but i guess when stuff isnt logically right or kinda dumb, i often just look bored actually it feels like every 3 minutes that stuff bugs me. People who know me well know i rant alot.. I also read people well, i know i do. Thing is ive always felt disconnected and on my own, because nobody seems to be able to get on my layer, well some and i became good friends with them.

Im more focussed on trading than my owb intelligence so ill draw this to a close. Maybe ill make a proper post about it, but my pc is at the office and im typing this ony phone.. Its too slow for my liking.

Trading results to come.. Hopefully week on week results. Unless it goes bad and ill give a post or something.
