A 70k bet that I can't make a 50% gain in 2009

Quote from Appleseed:

I think a journal can be a great source of discipline for the journalist.It gives him(her) hundreds of watchfull eyes to see if he is adhering to previous stated setups and trade patterns . and also an insight into their execution.
Both parties benefit kinda like a symbiotic (i always to use that word:D )relationship

we give the atta boys and G modestly accepts them and continues his journey to his 50%goal.

CHEERS

By the way i don't think R.W journal would fit the above..his is more inspirational in what great rewards could be achieved with his DeMark type of trading

Yes, but what Mike is saying is that he should have lost:

($30.14 - $30.55) X 800 shares = -328 - $commissh

Not, $-232.20

IBN was 500 shares, not 800...typo, sorry.
 
Quote from snake:

oh yeah...my bad. Probably a math error on his part. Although could just be the wrong number of shares. He doesn't usually have a $300 risk level.


Yes, only time I may take a $300 loss is a HUGE slippage, or mistake in placing the order (been there...done that)..but IBN was only 500 shares..my error in entering here.
 
Quote from ddaytrader:

Tough day to be swimming against the current playing the short side.

concur!....As I have stated before, I enter each day with a bias...and today I had a strong sell bias.
Bias was wrong.
At least I took patterns/trades that were in my plan.
