Trader P/L 2006

ill take it
+18,5

 

No trades today. Had two setups but did not take them as I was involved in a poker tournament and doing pretty well.

 

day 26

-$175

Worst day yet. Had mostly good entries, got shaken out, then the stock would run my way 40 cents. Frustrating day.

 

Brain fart -- I think that IQ test drained me.

 

Totally got killed today.
A definite total loss of discipline.

 

Good morning today - calling in an early one today other stuff to do.

 

Couldn't get a hang of my new order entry system and hotkeys. Kept buying instead of selling, selling instead of buying, ended up in large positions that I didn't even know I was in. Got killed

-328.70 on 12300 shares

 

Taking it slow and trying to gain my confidence back. Locking in another positive day.

 

Three trades. Two losers one winner. Should not have taken the first two shorts as they did not fit my plan. Two steps forward, one step back. Feel a bit silly posting these alongside some of these multi thousand quotes but my goal is only $100 a day at present. When I can do that consistently I will start upping the ante one contract at a time. Taking the afternoon off as usual.
