Day 18 Only one trade today, long ABK. I'm doing a lot of prep work to be able to trade bigger size and different setups, probably will be quiet trading week for me. +66
Lol Bob, I should of bought when I saw you going long on it, but that seemed to be really crazy at the time
It's not a mistake if its part of your trading plan. I used to move stop b/e because I was afraid my trade would not work vs. letting it do it's thing and letting the probabilities work. This is why for me it was a mistake. I still move stop b/e at times but only based on my plan not my emotions.
Day 19 Was trading only ABK today. Went short early in the morning, but around $3.15 went flat near b/e. After new longs got trapped and news came out about company having no value I went short again and held right to my target. It wasn't my typical trade, but I had a plan before I entered the trade and I followed that plan, didn't let emotions to interfere with the execution. Very happy with the way I followed my plan. +330
Day 20 I bought some highs today and sold lows, funny haw it happens sometimes. My core signals bailed me out. -27
Day 21 Today was very interesting and unusual day for me. I combined everything I've learned about the markets and started scalping with very small size. I can honestly say that I enjoyed it. Over time it happened more often then not that I would be right about the move for next couple of minutes and then I would either get stopped out or had to wait for some time for target to be hit. Today I was using my experience to profit from that next small move. I need at least a week of this to see if I can add it as a valid strategy. Also was looking at CL today, it's hard not to when NoDoji is printing money there I can't see easy setup every day but every other day it's pretty obvious where I can enter and exit. I might be joining you there soon NoDoji. Now I am glad March was so slow it pushed me to so many different ideas. More I trade more basic it becomes, making a full circle. Can't wait for my p&l to catch up with my experience. +108
Day 22 Was trading GS mostly, followed my plan. Have to leave early today. Have a nice weekend everyone. +672
