A new week. back from work. ready to trade, take kid to school in a bit.
first trade was sh from 72 and 73...8 cts
out 5 at 67, 2 at 69, 1 at 71
$145.80
was feeling strong so i didn't want to stay in for too long.
lets try to keep it tight and do what we know how to do.
I took that last trade after lunch without reviewing everything. I just saw what was going on and the price was at a point where I could grab several ticks. problem is, i didn't even exit at a loss when it became obvious that a run up could do some serious damage.
Perhaps the afternoon will play have more action but I'm feeling done for the day. I might as well wait for better times.
Tomorrow may bring a better pnl.
I'm up for the week and lets try to keep it that way tomorrow. Looking forward to cashing in a check at the end of the month.
in 53...in 50
EDit: gonig to exit at 58 and...now...its taking awhile to get out 5 cts...i have 5 more cts
Edit: 57 out...i should wait for higher but whatever...should have at least gottten out at 58.
previous exit at 60 barely hit. was anticipating 60, 63 not to be too difficult to...
Really need to pull it together and get back to what I know.
I pretty much fumbled after that first trade.
Same ole same ole...overconfident..then bam! smack dead in the face....stumbled around to make some pitiful trades trying to win it back
late entry but I exited rest at 45, 46
re-entered sh at 49. exit at 45, 46, 45
I'm down -1,135.50. price when to 60 with a long wick. had a chance to get out with -800 but didn't take it. didn't even see 60 when it spiked up there.
What I should have done was exit a small scalp when I had b/e for the day. Then I could trade from there for larger trades that I'm not as positive about.
