Quick Introduction: I have been an avid follower of several threads on ET and over the last 1 year have learned a lot from it. Finally, I’ve decided to be an active participant rather than just the consumer of information.

I left IT job back in July and have been trading full time since then. I have been an investor for the last 10+ years and have now decided to day and swing trade full time. Will work very hard to make this work or else it is back to the corporate world.

I plan on posting on this thread on a daily basis going forward.

P.S.
Resetting on a new career path… looking forward to the support and guidance. Thanks.

 

a couple of good fades and a few instances of being stopped out.

Shitty day - left a 6E trade on overnight (stupidly) w/o a stop and the day just went down from there:

What a hump after FOMC!

I have around -$4k in unrealized losses that I am working on bringing back to black.

 

I dislike manipulated markets.
