Tue if I traded 6 like I did Monday I would have made 2k.
Today if I could take 1 god damn long I'd have been done by 1200. Also if I could wait 8 minutes I would have finished the day 1.2k. Also If I could take every bet without hesitation I'd have made around 3 grand today (see screenshot).
I left to work out so I didn't take this last one though I set limits and canceled them. What a fucking great excuse right?
I've started to realize how psychology is more like 99% of trading. You will mind fuck yourself out of doing the right things.
Have to finish early tomorrow have stupid work BS meeting to attend and probably just sit there doing jack shit.

So you are able to day trade via WiFi with no issues? I'm thinking of trading via hotel free WiFi, during my upcoming trip overseas. Thanks.
Well that depends on the wifi... there are many different varieties. I'm using my phone as a hotspot. During the open when things happen fast is when I notice the most delay. Later on in the day when things slow it's not a problem. It's just a handicap which if at all possible you want to avoid; I'd so much rather trade at home on my desktop which is more powerful than my laptop and has a 15 MBps connection. Thankfully we are not HFT!
This is why I know I'm meant to be a trader!
+710 Thur : 3 lot again holy crap I need to trade 6s!!!!! I plan on 9s soon. I really have nothing to fear. 2/3 trades I wanted to take today would have resulted in good trends. The third would have been a scalp. See screenshot of trade I called and skipped.
+340 Fri : no real great opportunities when you have a 5 point range....

+6k for Feb
I should have made a shit ton more money today. I got out early for no reason except I was distracted by some old farts that clogged the shitter at work and had to take care of the appts for the exercise phys here since he derped and forgot he had a meeting. I run between rooms to check on my trades and take care of ppls demands... I hate Mondays!
What a great job I have. At least I can trade!
