I'm still suffering from fear of losing money, being wrong, or missing an opportunity. Now that I've realized what my issues are, I need to work on them and meanwhile continue to trade small, 3-4 contract to slowly build back my confidence and self-trust. The "Disciplined Trader" book seems...

Wednesday's P&L +582 (+4.25 per) Overall an OK day, except that I've missed one good entry when we bounced off S1 @3pm. I was expecting 1310 test of the gap high below, so a bounce of 1312 took me off guard and I didn't change my mind quickly enough to get on board, even though I saw NQ and...

had an order to buy 3@13.5 on 1-2-3 buy of YL, didn't get filled :( priced moved too fast :( not going to chase it now as this increases my risk on the trade.

was away from the screen and missed my sell set up :( Can't get them all. Not going to engage in revenge trading and try to pick the bottom here. Need to see a set up first.

not going to go long here, we may still retest the top of the gap below/S2 plus it's lunch hour where I should stay out. plus NQ and ES are on different pages

close last @15.25 didn't have enough time to put on reverse position NQ is leading to the upside and didn't make a LL

closed 2 @15.5, still hold 1 for test of lower gap top. stop 17.5

sell 3@19.5 stop @21, target AHL/S1 stop moved to b/e

out @1925, not follow through selling.

out @19, Dow is back into negative , es back into OR. sell 3 @18.75, stop 19.75

Very narrow OR today, only 2.25 points. Need to figure out the statistical implications of this. Ndx is positive as well now.

YN just made new high, should drag es to gap fill. moving stop to b/e

long 3 again @18, stop @17 we have 1-2-3 buy and $tick has improved. Also NQ and YM are strong and are leading to the upside.

NQ and YM filled the gap, ES hasn't. It's stuck at PP. I don't need to try to anticipate market's movement. I need to wait for a clear signal.

long 3@17.75 for a gap fill closed at break even, I felt I was rushing into the trade and didn't wait for my set up.

thanks, will check it out. I'm still reading disciplined trader as well.

Quote from wrbtrader: I need to repost this as I'm still digesting it and need to reply. The point is that you cannot control what others say in a public trade journal at a forum like Elitetrader.com Therefore, to stay on course, you should not spend any time & energy responding to any...

Friday's P&L was +518 Monday - not trading Tuesday P&L loss -$609 I seem to be having the same issues these last 2 days. Make a good trade in the morning, then hesitate on my next signal and skip a profitable set up, then try to make up for a missed trade by forcing trades in low...
