Snowed out here; kids home from school; and wife having back problems. Did what I could. Was going to just call this day a scratch and quit even before it got started, but was able to get a half day in (11-3). Only possible with the support of my wife.
Much better efficiency today...I think I pinpointed my overtrading problem...need to repeat behavior for a few days to say that I've got it down. +$704.34 -- 69,400 shares traded
Another pathetic ass trading day for me. When am I gonna get my head outta my ass and trade well. 15 point trading range today and I barely eek out a gain. On a side note, every day this week was green Eh, well barely green but green nonetheless !
Two days in a row of doing a good job and refraining from the throwaway trades. Missed a lot of opps, but still hammering out details to my strategy. +$1,477.44 -- 108,200 shares traded Now I'm just waiting to watch the amazing consistency & nice profits of smilingsynic. Good weekend to all.
Any profits are nice, at the end of the day, but today was rather disappointing. I did catch the move to 1320, but reduced my size afterwards.
"A man is likely to mind his own business when it is worth minding; when it is not, he takes his mind off his own meaningless affairs by minding other people's business." I'm happy to post blotters if its worth seeing me blackout almost everything except the P&L or you could just reading my posts. That said, it would be to your benefit to heed the above quote and focus on breaking $100 for the day.
Lets see here. You just registerd to the forums last month. I take it you haven't read any of the PnL threads from 2008, 2009, or 2010. You must post a blotter. You can continue not posting one, but you're wasting your time. if you dont have a blotter, you are probably lying about your PnL and you have alternate motives.
