6 good trades, 4 bad = -34.50 CLF killed an otherwise good day. I was short early in the day and was instantly up in the trade, then the specialist went to work squeezing my nuts. After I covered the stock gave up the ghost. *sigh* Looking back, I should have had stop above R1 pivot (or just bailed out earlier), but my crystal ball is in the shop.
slow day. spent much of the day looking for a prop shop like echo or hold brothers for a better rate/deal than IB. Not sure IB can be beat for price??? + 552
last week total -$600 ok start to this week--better than expected--was short ECA and it wouldnt fall--had to leave early didnt want to just put in a stop (which wouldve been better) made just $60 off that couldve been over $400 sucks sometime
$-80 Not a great first hour for me. missed the early move on my security of late - DRYS. 2 round trips for 2000 shares then off to work. Anyone ever notice that any time you break one of your own rules you FAIL? My indicators were not all in line but i went long anyway. I'm keeping a trading journal and its helped me learn a lot about myself. Ready for tomorrow. Hammer
was a choppy session, damn i hate these days... -$4.87... but i was able to get to the next level, so starting tomorrow (i mean today ) i trade 300 shares...
