+ ~ 4600 net. this is way more attention i want to give to count dracula, but here goes anyway. i must be really good at photoshop and have a lot of knowledge of what happened in the mkt to create this... this is what i traded today. its split into 2 accounts, one i use most for options as i've stated before. can we move on now, cornpuff?
In and out quick this morning, I stayed home from work because I was sick and thought I would log in for a little bit before heading to the doctor. I had an awesome morning thanks to some good price action on AMZN, it was nice being able to devote my full attention to the screen this morning. I downsized a little as I feel like I have still been trading a little too large for my account size, and was very pleased with the outcome still. I got lucky on a solid fill a little better than my limit.
this is for today, I was on the trade for way too long... I hate day trading, going back to my normal stuff... it was fun for a little while... but way too stressful for me... glad that I am back in the office today...
Well I took my first loss of the week this morning. I had planned on sitting out today, but ended up trading anyways and it didn't work out. I took a trade off a poor setup and it was somewhat anticipatory. I did a little smaller size today than yesterday though so that helped keep it from being too bad of a loss. I think it might be to my advantage to stop trading on Fridays more than likely. I took a real big loss last friday, and another loss today. Every big losing day I have ever had with options has been on a friday, and yet I still trade them....SOOO new rule to add to the plan. No trading on friday morning! I wish it hadn't taken me this long to decide that officially, it would have saved me a ton of money but that is alright I will from now on. I moved some profit out to close the week out and will start back Monday!
It was a bad day for me. I was impatient and frustrated. Trading while being exhausted and having a screaming baby next to me the whole time didn't help. I'll recharge and be ready to go on Monday. -42
