Extremely frustrating day with the connection issues again. Should have just walked away in the morning when it was barely green. Then again, could have just opened a short position blindly (even if it meant getting filled 10 ticks away) in anything and covered at the close! But that's not...
Nobody said this is easy, but throw in connection problems when trying to scalp CL, and then it becomes impossible! Just getting tired of having excuses, and perhaps running out of excuses, to get some consistency going! :(
