  2. Pretty slow day again today. MU SHOULD have been cash this morning but i kept messing it up. SCH was good when it broke 14.50 i got some cash there, was good in AMD during the morning but wasnt really watching it in the afternoon. Overall not great results again, but meh, its some cash.

  3. Decent day today - just churned all day long. No major hammering in which has caught me out all this month.

    Hope to build on this tomm, not for the cash more for the confidence.

    Cheers

  4. Was in a major hole this morning. If I wasn't such a moron I could have made some serious dough, but I'll take it.

    890 shares
    Almost perfect time bought long NTMD and sold short MANH. Also tried to short VMSI at its high at 38.90 but did not get filled. This was the only thing I did right today. After that, almost all I did today was bad and no disciplined. I exited NTMD and MANH at totally wrong time. Then traded other stocks impatiently. This spoiled the performance. If I followed the simple exiting rule to exit at Market close, the performance of this month, actually all the year, will be much much better, double triple the actual results I did emotionally like today. I do not know how I can become emotionless. If I keep doing this, the performance will be far far below the simulated, daily back-tested performance. I know it will take a long time before I can complete my learning peiod of small trades and become really consistenly profitable as my super great simulated system tells me. Good luck everybody here.

  8. +353.14
    Systems were esentially B/E
    I have a cold and felt like I was way off my game today. I read it right entered well but got hung up on exits. (Got out early on 90% of today's trades) P/L represents 10% of what I should have taken home based on the trades I entered...
