-$61 .... -1.25 points trading 1 contract So was I scalping today ? Or trading. I don't scalp. Was unnerved for some reason. Broke every one of my rules on stop losses. Shorted teh 11:40cst 5 min candle, stopped out -1.25 on a reversal (acceptable) shorted the 12:40cst candle. Set stop a point too low b/c I was scared of losing money. Well it hit my stop and pushed down. (Idiot) bought the 13:05cst 5 min reversal candle, and took 1.25 point gain instead of letting it run. What was wrong w/ me today ? Bought the 14:15cst 5 min candle.....Somehow I exited at b/e.... u figure that one out, b/c my idiocy can't, lol 3 of my 4 trades, if i adhered to my rules, would have been +2-4 points each. Yet, I finish negative...... what a tool

Hi Increase, Of course. I'll post those as they come, but for me, my performance metric is performance by week, not day. My current goal is $4000/week, so I actually missed my goal this week.
