5/15/09 : Total P/L -142.47 3 trades 1 win 2 losses *friday was a great lesson for beginners to always stay focused while trading. As I was trying to get alot of things done for my "other" job so I could leave by 2pm for a weekend trip, I entered RIMM short. I posted my entry,stop and...

The first chart is what I have SU, If you look at the 2nd RIMM chart you can see gaps between some bars, this is a clear cut sign that the chart is not correct. Thanks again for posting the charts SU...makes explaining each trade so much easier!-G

Nodoji, 23.785% Call me Rain Man *actually, no clue....all I really look for is 50% win total overall.

AA48, You are correct. I am anticipating the Lower High (if short) or Higher Low (if long). Like you said, if I am going short and the stock rally's....let's say three 5 min bars , but still below the last pivot high and on the 4th bar it breaks below the low of the 3rd bar, I am shorting it...

Snake...my account is over 90k now.

If we are talking about the FAS trade, no this is not a gap play. The reason I bought FAS there was it set up a higher low at 1:45. Now, WHY I entered FAS goes back to the discussion with Snake before... I had a LONG bias on the bank sector today. Most of the banks were setting up some sort...

Ok snake.. First , you are 100% correct! AT 1:56 I would not enter this trade. The entry was at 1:46, not 1:56. This is the exact post on my journal....look at the time on the top and it will tell you what time was REALLY entered. I just typed it in wrong. Busy day at work today. 5-14-09...

Snake, Good or Bad, I keep my bias. If it happens like you said, I will let it sell off and try to play the 1st higher low it makes.

Mike... Was great entry! Nice job.

Only thing I really like to keep overnight ..is...um....well, I'm sure you can guess Nodoji. I want to keep this journal clean.
