Chuck's Golden Trade Of The Day

To evaluate my trading, I will answer these questions daily:

1) Did I put on high probability (A+) trades that I wouldn't be easily scared out of?
2) Did I trade to win or did I trade not to lose?
3) Did I have enough size in my conviction trades?
4) Did I break any of my rules? Why?
5) Was I mindful of what I was doing?
6) How many of today's trades would I make again under the same circumstances?
7) How many of my trades did I bail on before the stop or profit target? How did that work out?
8) How many of my trades today were placed out of fear of missing a move?
9) How many trades did I miss today because I wasn't paying attention or was working on something else?
10) How many doubles were there that I didn't have an edge for?
11) How do I feel about my trading at the end of the day?
12) What can I do to improve these answers?
