ES Journal - 2023/2024

I dunno, it looks like a typical chop to me. In that regard, I think I was right.

 

As long as there's still juice, trade on.

 

I will generally take the day off if I'm up substantially and/or the day already made a major move, but I will usually not if I'm up just a few points. This is also because I'm trying to limit my trading hours.

If I'm red, I'll keep going as long as I believe the day have enough profit potential left that I can still profit enough that it makes a difference. I know some recommend a strict daily loss limit, but I can tell you that many of my moderate winning days and even larger winning days at some point where as much as 1-2.0K in the red. If I stopped trading those days I imagine my overall results would have been worse.
