Equities gappers

I missed the GILD trade... I was so mad at myself. There was a great short opp at 10:00am. I should had seen it.
I caught it twice, but left tonnes on the table. Nice to get a rare winning day, though!

I've changed things up a little last few days, mainly in terms of stock selection which should hopefully at least help eliminate days like the -$380 day at least!

took a few more trades on FB, trying to exploit the fact that I can't seem to put a foot wrong with equities today for some reason.

+$150 and switched platform off now to avoid temptation
 
All green.!. That's great. I see you aren't trading those junk stocks that you did on page 1 either.
True. Although I was green overall on page 1! lol.
Yeah, even though those around me are getting rich trading these news stocks which makes me always wanna come back to them

I feel i'm at least more in control when trading more familiar stocks.
We'll see how I am looking after next week - whether i've got some more losses back and am aproaching B/E overall, or whether i take another massive step back and get further in the hole! Watch this space, lol

ps - thanks for posting here occasionally. I had no idea just how dead the 'journals' part of this forum was. Ghost town. Everyone just talking to themselves in the journals lol

-$20

Should have been way more red to be honest! Very luck to not be down more like $150, but I took a few risks (on FB that had just beaten me up) and made losses some back. In my head it's a very red day, but there you go...
 
FB is too much of a mover for me to trade it at this point. IMO it takes a 100k account to trade it stress free. Way to finish up the day without much damage though!
