+60 300 shares too cautious today. lost opportunities. today's trouble is MBTrading.com order routing crashed 20 minutes before market close. my profit reduced half because of this. also hold un-realized longs and shorts overnight. bad.
3 of the trades stops were hit which would have been 15+ point gains on each trade, I was not thrilled with that. 2 of them where just broken support and resistance and didn't stand a chance. -70 on the P&L, -100 including commissions. I got the patience, I got the knowledge, I am doing very well on the discipline, I am just not getting the results yet, but patience and hard work will pay off. Even though the day is a loss, although I feel better because I was very calm even though I was upset that some of my trades did not go my way, and stops were hit. Kinda upsetting, I wanted to end the week on a good note, but... keeping my cool, just got to keep working harder. Next week is a new beginning.
Been sick for the last month due to a nasty virus. Also cost me dearly $4k in some poor trades. So Im back trading just 1 ES contract building some consistency and confidence. +$100 - 1 x 2 pts If only I held 30 mins more.
The market humbled me today. Very undisiplined trading. Thought I could come back but got myself into a deeper hole. I'll call it a day.
Did not even feel like trading today - ill take what I got and call it day. Today is the first day in a long time that I really did not feel like I wanted to trade.
-602.50 on 12,600 shares I know most traders love choppy markets, but I can't figure it out. In addition, I've been in a pissy mood for the last week. Maybe I'll take a few days off.
