hey,
for the last couple of months i have been consistently taking profit out of the market. This thread is not about how i trade or whatnot but rather about how to properly present a trading record to a potential employer / investor at some future date.
to this point my "journal" consists of
entry/ exit
% risk
% gain
a picture of the chart at entry
the entry ticket number at my broker
a spiffy chart with my equity curve
is this good enough if i go to a bank / investor and say " this is my trading record" or is there and "official" way to document my trading results
my second issue is the tiny size of my acount.
although it is a live acount, being a student i simply cannot afford to put in more cash. so my second question is.. is this a futile exercise given my account size which is only a few hundred dollars
