Anyone cover up their daily P&L ?

Quote from BDMTrader:

I like to have the P&L there to keep myself disciplined. the only thing worse than a bad entry is giving too much back, for me anyway
No, wrong. Your point of exit should not ever depend in where you entered or how much you made since then. The market doesn't know where you got in, so how could it influence your future expectations?

anyone cover their daily p&l on their platforms? a friend of mine says the firm he is at,traders,not all of course,cover up their p&l's so they don't get hooked on what where its at.



Yes i do this, I have done it a long time. Your software should have a feature that puts all $$$$$$ to cover the P&L.
 
always. while my system is automated so watching it doesn't affect my trading, it certainly has the ability to reduce my productivity. i still catch myself taking a peek more often than i should
