Well, at least im not part of an international prostitution ring! Bad day. This was my worst. -4200 i dont have a blotter cause im still long some issues and the bids dropped off cause i waited too long to do a snapshot. This puts me down 2k on the month...yikes! im long DDM and AGU be back to battle tomorrow. Have a great night all!
I did not post my p/l or my blotter for Friday or today........ I was too busy cutting my wrists...... Friday: Net -1,877 101,406 shares Monday: Net -2,240 147,622 shares today I was up +600...I was trading great this morning taking profit, cutting losses, share size 700-800 then I pushed the share size up and got clobbered. I am going to set a goal of $200 per day and drop my share size to try & be more CONSISTENT like ELCUBANITO, THEPROPTRADER, NORDIK, to name a few...
I think I am gonna close OptionsXpress. That is not like Xpresstrade I used to. I am not gonna trade this month but preparing to transfer an account to another futures broker. Good luck to all!
-625 11000 went above my size hoping my position would go further, didnt re-evaluate. back to 1 unit tomorrow, we'll try again
Nice day w/ broad swings - love it; I am still a bit risk averse. Trading has improved and is better, but I still panic sell on a consistent basis - conservative, but minimizes gains.

what a day .... had a great first trade which gave me half of my daily target then had to slowly make money .... was up 400+ then lost everything immediately cut and reversed my position only to be shaken out and be down -100 ... bought again and was able to hit my daily target before 3:00 ... had no extra buffer and after what happened earlier decided to call it a day before i lose everything all over again.... will push more in the coming days .... goodluck to all
