Took a day off yesterday.

+48 today.

 

It's a bit lacklustre :-/

 

Are you referring to Thursday P/L or my performance in general?

 

Gave up all my initial gains and then some.

-150

 

Spent all day digging myself out of the hole I got myself into shortly after the open.

+12

 

Did not trade on Wednesday.

Initial loss due to software issue was reduced after the fix.

-32

 

I made a small adjustment to my strategy today. I lowered my expectations on each trade at the expense of RRR. The result is a higher win % but lower average winner. I also had a few scratches (+/- a few pennies) due to either a stalled momentum or price action I didn't like. I was more picky about my entries and passed anything but the best setups.

Would have been up more... Had multiple positions when my connection dropped. By the time I switched to backup (2 min) one of them went significantly against me. I don't use hard stops.
