This journal is for my own accountability. I will not get into proving anything or playing the "is it real money" conversation. If you don't like what you read, please just read somewhere else. The exact ins and outs of my plan will not be posted but I will post pictures and trades. They will be after the fact as it is too much effort to post during. This is not a call thread so it really doesnt matter. I'm selling nothing. I dont win all the time, I do have losing days and I can't predict the future. It starts Monday.

Forward thanks to TO and RN

Watching EXC. Being patient. Only two stocks look like they might fit in today. EXC and MRK. MRK probably won't offer a trade.

No trades today. Waited for the right setup but never got it.

Ain’t this an absolute truth of trading – for us both…

=========================================================

Permission to hop aboard Sir… and possibly ask some questions??


Btw;

I’ll absolutely (100%) respect your decision not to disclose the answer any/ all question(s) I ask….

But please; make sure you do have the answer(s)



===================================================

As for waiting for the right set up today – B E A U T I F U L

Never, and I mean never….; try to make something happen – when it simply ain’t there


Fwiw;

It will always be obvious after the fact – but that is not the business we’re in… nor can we ever afford to be

We trade what we see…. (which includes sittin on our hands at times - or getting out and enjoying the day )

Rn

Of course youre welcome to ask, post and or suggest.
There are only a few people on here that I read and think about everything they have written and you are one of them. So by all means have at it.

I had a possible scenario for the two stocks that were in Play today but neither materialized. No big deal. Cash in my account is better than cash in someone else's.

Ahh hell man – talk about pressure…..

Only one who’s opinion is really worth listening to

================================================

a few questions; and a yes or no - is absolutely acceptable.. as is I prefer not to answer


You have a way of identifying stops (where the trade fails)

Are your stops measured in pennies… or possibly a nickel, plus/minus a few pennies

You have a way to determine a direction (aka a trend)

You have a way to determine trend from chop

You prefer riding the trend

You have a way (tools) to build context

Using any indicators

Any interest in time

=========================================

My assumptions

MTFA
You’re trading off one, and it’s the usual one

=====================================


Just getting my bearings so I can somewhat intelligently follow along


And for the record, any potential compromising question/ thought I may have – will be sent to you – if you get my drift

Always Sir... always (well except when its in mine )

Trade well tomorrow, regardless the outcome
