ES Journal - 2025/2026

Dropped 40-50 points after that post.

And even for a long term investor - I don't think stocks are a bargain at these levels. I'm sure @v-shape-0DTE is buying, though.

 

This is not a bargain. I repeat. Not a bargain.

 

So did ya grow some balls today?

 

Doesn't seem like crypto is faring too well under Trump either.

I know a Norwegian MAGA (cognitive dissonance anyone?) who loaded up on Cardano because a crypto friendly president in the US was a sure thing for crypto.

He's bleeding now.




Bitcoin

 

Panic kicks in below last year's close at 5881,63.

SPX negative for the year right now.

 

Target hit. +$4,862.50.

 

Am I the only one that's not capitalizing on short today? The mid day action just stop me out before the melt down.

Mentally this is one of the toughest thing to overcome in day trading, not making money/losing even you are right

 

There are a lot of important levels between 5940 and 5980.

 

I'm sure it happens even to the best at times. Clearly not an easy market to trade for most.

I had a funded account up to $8K in realized profits in just a couple days recently riding some of these big moves. Then I got greedy and set it to fire very quickly "predicting" instead of reacting.

Shit happens. Learn and improve on your mistakes.
