Today's P&L: about $1500 Total P&L for 4th week of June: $6000 I was disappointed by this week's performance. I was very cautious this week and did not take many actions as I did before.
made about 5 % this week so it was a nice one for me however many times I carry spreads on into the weekend and once in a while they open worse for me
I netted -45 and grossed +760. Traded horrendously! My worst trading day in a long time... not P/L wise, but trading wise. I held a position against me and kicked it at the point of too much pain ( of course the top)... something I have rarely done in my career and not done in months... I got bailed out of having a bad day with a 45 cent trade on 1000 shares into the close from the Russel shuffle craziness, but as far as I'm concerned, I lost $500 today. For the week: -380 +920 +620 +520 (MY P/L I posted yesterday was inaccurate to my benefit, as I happily discovered this morning on in my clearing account) -45 Total: ~+$1635
<b>5-Day (Weekly) Cumulative: 6/18 - 6/22</b> Two (2) ER contracts per trade turn 42 round turns +24.9 index points = +4.98 points per session average 84 ER contracts total turned 84 ~ $5,020 profit = $59.76 per contract turned == Average week, no big trades captured, all small to medium sized profits. Missed - passed on more potential gains than booked, but that's reality in the trenches for anyone trading anything using any approach. Lots of sideways chop and gyrations, week straight ahead should be much better for directional swings and/or trends.
