-$1328 net on 150,000 shares. Should have been a pretty good day, but stepped on a couple big landmines.
+67200 trading CL. Great day on CrudeOil Trading shorting from 59.50-70 and 59.90. No trades on ES and ZN as nothing happened there.
Chauncey, if you don't mind, how much did you make in '05 and '06? I'm seeing you up over $225K over the last 8 trading days you've posted, which is on pace for a cool $6MM year. Oil was very volatile in '05 and '06, that's why I'm curious if this is normal for you or not.
He made 100 million in '05, 500 billion in '06, and he's on pace to make 1 trillion this year. Does that help anyone in any way besides himself? Just concentrate on your own trading, cause these types of p&l will mess up your heads..
It's ok. I will not place any P/L on the future and everyone happy. Anyway, which is the purpose of this thread, a P/L journal, nothing more, nothing less you should not take the numbers so emotionally.
No, please don't let me discourage you from posting. I have nothing against you. I am just trying to help those traders who see such big profits and then get greedy and get killed...I have a lot of buddies who read this thread and then go on a day dreaming spree... Just because someone makes 20+ k a day doesn't mean that everyone can. You're on a level that most here are not on.
Chauncey, You're absolutely right, that is the purpose of this thread. Keep on posting. Ignore the noise. Nice to see a few heavyweight traders on these threads like yourself, inspiration for us all.
