    Well, looks like my 3 week streak will come to an end tomorrow unless I can manage to pull my head out of my ass.

    After a down day yesterday happy with results. A little disappointed with my trading in the first 3 hours. I made money on the initial rally, but was slow in transitioning to a seller and gave back morning profits.

    Good trading to all:p

  10. I am upset. I went totally back to my old system. Gambled in the morning heavily. Had at one time 48 contracts on the table and that was pre market. Thank heavens I got lucky and it was pure luck I was not raped this morning. Once I unloaded the big position I tried going back to my plan and was shaken out of couple of trades. Took about $600 in losses. I am calling it a day, too much emotions at play at this moment. Maybe will re visit after 1:00PM.
    End result = 18.5K - but this time I did not deserve even one cent of it. Pure luck!
    I hate when I trade like this.
    Enjoy the weekend guys! :(
