The Tao of Minimalistic Trading: $300 Daily Profit

Not much to report today. Got nickle-and-dimed trading the Globex and situation wasn't any better in the RTH. Nevertheless, I made enough to buy myself a BigMac meal. This day ends with a gain of 0.25 points or $12.50.

Edit:
ST 18.50
PT (If not stopped out, will take profit on first half at 1902.75 and let the other half ride)


Wasn't monitoring the trade and it looks like this thing went outta whack. With the Unemployment report coming out in due course, I think I might have a chance of redemption.
