    Fairly boring after the open. Trading while having flu does suck, however.

  2. Best day in over a month so I am adding it here as well as the journal

    Great day today trading overall. Best day of the month and ended strong as well.

    JCP was my first trade of the day and while it started out as a good trade I came back and was caught with my hand in the cookie jar one to many times. Ended up stopping out and taking a loss. Not real proud of this trade but at least it didn’t leave a mark that would ruin the day.
    JCP – 171
    AU was a late trade that I covered just after the close and a little to early as it fell big time after the release of a stock/bond offering
    AU + 15

    CREE was a double and then a triple 4bar + 234

    GG was a short based on the daily TD line support being reached and then I was stopped out for a small gain. + 36

    HPQ was a double 4bar that I should have held until the target was reached but closed out to soon due to what felt like I was getting a lot in relation to the overall move. While it should not have been a big winner it should have been more had I held. + 18

    RDWR 6bar was the big winner today that I went back to get more a couple of times. The second time I shorted a bit early but did well just about every trade. This one was called out in the chat room and I almost missed it as I was away from my trading desk during the call out as someone was at my door that I was talking to. Glad I came back as soon as I did and I do wish I would have made even more it was a very nice gain overall. + 1702

    THOR double 4bar that was my first real big winner of the day. Great trade that was called out in chat which shows how valuable the chat room was to me today. + 869

    VECO was a double 4bar that turned into a triple and was one that I was able to call out in the chat room and turned into a really nice trade even if it did take a very long time. + 306

    WDC options. mistake trade that I closed out as soon as I realized it was on the wrong account. – 6

    First day over 3K in a while and second day of the new scanning computer up and rolling well. Looking forward to more trades as a result.

    + 3005
