    Here's the chart:

    How was my first and last trade?
    Should I have holded onto my short?
    What did I do wrong?
    What could I have done better today?
    Thanks.

    I'm down $110 on five trades today. The stress is really affecting me. I was undisciplined and impatient and tried to trade pre-market today. But got out at breakeven on those trades. I tried to go short at the open, but the chop got me. Then I went on sims and started doing better. If I had stayed with my rules I could've made money or at least didn't lose much. There's definitely a certain time frame when my rules will work. I'm out of funds. It doesn't make sense to continue on like this. I'll go find a job to subsidize my trading. That'll let me pay my bills and give me more time for my account to start taking off. I don't need to spend much time on trading. My system allows me the flexibility to only need to trade a short period during the day. So working a job and trading is doable.

    No trades today. I've found a job and won't be able to trade for awhile.

    I cheated and did another trade in sim before heading to work. Had another positive day again.

    I'm starting this new account at $725.

    Up $190 on two trades. 26% profit. 1 winner and 1 loser. Loser lost only $30. Good day.

    It's easy to wipe out a sim account and start over:D

  10. I read 32 pages of this crap. Now I'm 17, and I have more mental integrity than you do. You're gambling, and while you may have some execution skills and what apparently is some "mysterious amazing system" that works only half of the time, you lack so much more.

    You have made me realize some problems in myself, and I thank you for that.

    Unfortunately, I can't read any more of your 32 pages. My stomach hurts from laughing.
