+ $220 There's a lot of money on that table from my TGT overnight short; if you find it please share Still missing good entries, but also catching more than usual by being a bit more proactive in placing my orders.
I've posted a few of my good trading days, so it's only fair to post some of the crappy days, as well. The past 3 days have included two of my four worst trading days in history. As a result, it's been the worst 3-day period (and largest overall drawdown) in my trading history as well: Monday: -$35,003 Tuesday: -$21,516 Wednesday: -$4,327 Not something I'm excited about, but I'm sure it's all just a temporary blip due to the effects from the election. Anyway, congrats to those with great results so far MTD. I hope to join you soon. A suggestion for others when they hit a rough patch: I am slowly downsizing my trading size until the market environment improves for my trading systems. When in doubt, size down. When things are going well, size up (seems obviously, but not always something that people do)
Did not trade today. Decided to take a little break after 5 (!) consecutive losing days. Granted the worst of those days was only $93, but still I need to pull myself together and trade with my head. Will try again tomorrow.
congrats to leb and moriarton. condolences to red for losing few pennies( would've been a disaster day for me) again, nothing day. net =350 ish
so -35k is your worst day and $1M is your best day? that's not bad........hmmmmmm. you are my hero ericP
I posted earlier, added on 30k in the after hours... now i am really tired.. man this business really sucks the energy out of me.
night session.... the day session actually ended with only $200 loss. the night session traded ok, didn't manage trades very well.... still struggling to be in sync with the market rythm.
Traded asian markets. I dont count the gains in my monthly PnL as I don't often trade at night but I think I will post my gains/losses in the PnL thread + 165 AUD + 5640 HKD + 838
