*Working on trade noting recalculations. (edit : resolved / see below)

Ok now that I've worked around the Tradervue issue I now can continue to trade BTC and tracking data + performance more accurately. Work around process for partial shares/positions if interested.

  1. Log trade price as executed and as a whole share
  2. Multiply actual position amount by price and this will give you an equal variable related to the actual position size against price. This will be put into the price and logged below the actual trade price. Executions remain the same + position entered and - position exited.
  3. Last step is to 0 out the initial trade price so that your actual closed P&L is tracked accurately. This is done by re-doing the 1st step but inverse the executions. I adjust the time later so that it's at the end of executions and less confusing.

I keep step 1 and step 2 times the same so I can relate the price and actual price variable together. This may be a little different for scaling as there are additional steps for each execution but still do-able. And as for shares with whole plus partial, I'm thinking step 2 would be carried out the same way.

Trade + Trade Management

As for the trade, I haven't traded BTC thus far for the year ! But will be doing so now as it's clear that it's the main mover. This is mid-term timeframe for me and traded the recent consolidation break. I'm noting the VWAP high and lows here and VWAP below from 05/30 high which found support (also a 61.8% retrace level + daily 26 ema). This was a EQ breakout trade with a target of around 12k where price resistance is nearby and a another 61.8% level.

Trade Review
Exited as a scalp because I needed to find a solution for the data here on Tradervue and it was just below my target. Took the small profit here and needed to more importantly set-up future trades with better data and tracking management.
