Down $36. Was down $122 to start because I f'd up the opening on a stock, but came back with a few solid hits on UNH. Volatility was garbage today. Need to post here more regularly. Crossed the line from the red to the green for my entire trading history last week.
I got lucky today and almost gave my self a heart attack! I just started with automated trading and my system froze up right after I entered the trade. I tried to get out but I couldn't. I signed off and on of my tradestation and then I couldn't connect to the order server. Now I'm worried because I'm long and the stock is stating to drop. I call up for a phone assisted trade and I get a recording for hold. So there I am, in a trade, waiting on hold. I finially get through and have them sell at market. It just so happened that I was up when I sold. I ended up making $98 but had to pay an extra $20 in commissions for the phone assist so I only netted about $75. I plain got lucky today.
up $210...goofed up and I'm in that PDT stop again so I have 100 unrealized gain. Sold shares too early yesterday because I had anxiety that today was going to actually be a down day. Today is a good day but I've sold early because I need to get ready for my exams.
Only winning trades today, very scary! I have to take a long break before this is gonna end badly! My goal is to "pull a Szeven" but then without the gimmicks, it's a hell of a task, but rewards are high when I finally made it
