  2. Raped. Again. -246 Too depressed to upload a blotter.

    I got blasted from the word 'go' today. First 2 trades: down almost 300. Walked away...slowly. Came back when I cooled down and only traded 200 shares at a time . I scalped my way to a smaller net loss, but still upset with myself. I waited WAY to long to bail on bad trades.

    I changed my order entry window to only allow 100 or 200 shares per trade. If I see a "Buy 1000" button, I'm guaranteed to click it. LOL

    I actually trade profitable when trading small lots. Go figure. Small lots until further notice.

    4000 Shares

    I'm calling it a day, week, month and year. I'm still grinding away at my attempt to become a consistently profitable trader. My progress has been slow, but moving forward. Last year I lost money. This year, as small as the profits may be, I managed to make a bit.

    Thanks to all of you for posting. Not only does this board motivate me, but I learn from it as well. I know my P/L is almost negligible as compared to some others on this board, but I hope that my consistent posting has been a meaningful contribution. I pride myself on being the only crappy trader that posts every single day no matter what happens.

    Have a great Holiday! See you next year!
