+16 gross I was up a decent amount and thought I was going to have a very good day. Then my trades reversed on me. Maybe I'm being too greedy. I'm trying to ride my trades to my targets, but have just been seeing winners turn into losers or decent profits evaporate. I need to go to the...

-34 gross Man, that was a lame day. There were so many BS moves and a whole lot of nothing happening. I overtraded and took a number of small losses. I also almost had a heart attack trading some after hours earnings, but only took a small ding from that.

-55 gross I'm done for the day. Finally a good trading day and I lost money. I had a very frustrating time. I missed a couple of fantastic shorts. One miss was due to a keyboard error where I tried to enter, but ended up just changing the symbol and by the time I got it changed back, the...

+18 gross I found it to be a slow, frustrating day, again. My P/L was bouncing around from positive to negative all day. I did make a couple of blunders and should have had a little more than this, but it was still a pretty lame day.

+25 gross The market was really slow. I spent most of my day in trades that sat there doing nothing.

Just wondering...do you take all of these trades you post?

-43 gross I got a little anxious this morning and got burned. I'm calling it a week.

+6 gross I was nearing my max loss for the day, as I was short all morning. I'll take break even after almost having a bad day.

+30 gross It was a pretty lame day. My P/L spent all day bouncing around break even. I'm glad to make it out of a sloppy day with a few bucks.

+83 gross It was a decent day and actually one of the best days I've had for a while which is sort of sad. I was reviewing my statistics this morning and noticed that since the beginning of June (when I started to do really badly) that my win percentage on trades within the first 20...

-26 gross It was a little slow and sloppy. I didn't really find any good movers. I got chopped up a little bit in the noise.

-5 gross That was not a good trading day. Total market lameness.

I don't remember exactly which rules were tested, but there were lots of questions on them. I would say just learn all the ones that pop up in the Pass Perfect tests. I'd say the hardest thing about the test is they way they present and phrase the questions. They made up scenarios and...

+27 gross Another non-losing day! I Didn't really find anything that would get moving. The market seems to be trading a little better for the way I trade, but it is still a bit tough with the opening gaps, retracements, and direction changes. I'll be off the next two days on a short...

+18 gross Today way my first day back after taking the last week or so off. I didn't find it to be a great trading day and am happy to start the month with a non-losing day. Now to review June: What a terrible month June was for me. I was coming off of a great month in May when I had...

I skipped the whole Pass Perfect options section. As long as you know how to calculate break even points, profit and loss, and know the names of basic options strategies then you will be fine on options. If you don't know that stuff, then unfortunately you do need to learn it. Of course, there...

Here is what my printout at the end of the test said: 1. Personnel, Business Conduct and Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements. 9 Questions 2. Markets, Market Participants, Exchanges, and Self Regulatory Organizations. 8 Questions 3. Types and Characteristics of Securities and...

I used the Pass Perfect material and mainly concentrated on the practice tests.

I you would like to, continue your journal. Just be sure to put a daily cap on your losses. There are many negative people on this board. If they bother you, just put them on ignore.

-45 gross I definitely didn't like the action today. Again, a lot of chop and BS moves. As I mentioned before, I don't like this market action and with the holiday coming up it's probably not going to get any better. I'm going to take some time off from trading. I'll probably return on Monday...
