I erase and reload my hard drive monthly to permanently eliminate any critters waiting to cause me grief.
Ending trading day a bit early to take care of some other things. good day. Now flat outside of hedged GE which I have for long term. + 5514 for the day + 11161 for the week / month
even a great market day can be minimal when you are not in tune. 300 bucks is positive, so that's step one, but I knew I was tired today and not ready to make big trades. I pulled out of a few just before the dow dropped huge on two occasions. I pretty much got the day I was ready for. I considered taking the day off but didn't. To me this shows again and again that the market is not the most important thing, the trader's energy and mindset are the most important. On small moving days I can make huge dollars and on large moving days I can make little dollars. It's great when both are in tune on the same day, but it didn't happen today. Grateful each day to be positive pl whatever the result. Thank you.
strat was quiet today, despite the high vol. +$585 net on very light volume 1Reason - awesome - you're on fire at the moment!
