Chart
PnL for today
Net for the week
For D's sake, I experimented with looking at smaller pictures, using smaller stops and lowering my targets with the aim of not holding long-term positions (as far as D's concerned, any trade that's more than 15 minutes is long-term).
I have to say, it's a mode that's highly incompatible with the way my brain is wired (hyperactive by default, so getting in and out of trades fast tends to get me into trouble).
So, I am going back to my old ways and really work on sticking to my contingency plans instead.

Gather the above answers your question? :-) The charts below are the charts that I use when in trade (the ones with the black background are screen capture versions - easier to see filled positions, but not so good to stare at for 12 - 18 hours a day).

How funny - I see the black charts and think "how soothing to the eyes", whereas you prefer the white. One person's oasis is another person's desert. =)
Congrats on the crystal anniversary!
Jules,
It's so interesting to see active day traders like you trade.
I guess it's true we need to stick to a style that gels with our personalities.
To a swing/position trader like me, you guys seem to be on "speed" ;)
Oh! On rainbow colours, I am with Henry Ford:
I can have any colours I want; just as long I make money.
LOL!
SMOL :-) Strange how your comment about money making colors reminds me of a dear friend who claims he is only profitable in brown ;-)
Soulfire, black is actually my favorite color (Surprise, huh? :-)).
AT, you don't believe I will at least TRY?? :-D
"AT, you don't believe I will at least TRY?? :-D"
Hahaha! Not that at all! I'm in the middle of doing that exact thing so I thought it was cool to see you doing it too.
Sometimes I may not say it the right way, but rest assured that my only comments to you are of a positive/supportive nature. ;)
All the best,

AT :-)
You bet I know that, my dear pal.
I see..now you mentioning it, I realize, to me the white backgrounds are easier on the eyes too:).
