ES Journal - 2019/2020

[Laissez Faire]

I trade like a machine without emotional involved while increasing in position sizes. So, I don't feel happy because I've a good day or bad because I've a bad day and TODAY isn't exception.

So, trading like a machine you made a profit today, yes?

Fabulous!

If you traded 5 contracts each, it is close to a million dollar gain!
Most of your trades were just swing and position trades, so NO need to sit in front of the computer for hours day in day out.

Even at 1X leverage, this would be more than 100 percent of index. Thank you for the kind comments

Given that the SPX range for 2020 was 1568,34 points that's very impressive. I assume this must be your total gain, i.e., x contracts * x points.

Regardless, a great result.

Appreesh

Yes, even at ONE contract, it is still a profit around $186K for last year. For overnight ES margin is about $12K, so a $186K gain is more than 1500%. Even without using any leverage (~160K), it is still more than 100% gain. Think about that if you were a signal provider, and people could benefit that kind of profit without even knowing anything about trading. You were very transparent and honest about your entry and exit.

When is the inauguration? Until then, just chill. But I'm thinking some bad news, like vaccine shortage, will come out shortly after and the market tanks. Probably not by much though, considering how effing bullish the sentiment is.

Self-fulfilling prophecy in action. I think we might see 10%-20% drop. But does 10% drop even matter these days? It seems so trivial.

I'm offering a tutorial for B1S2, Polenta and Laissez Faire on how to produce a blotter. Here are today's gains on my shorts and vol-trades in my personal taxable account at IB. Thanks for your support.

Daytrade only... long 500 TDOC just now at $144.44

Its gonna squeeze into the close.

Edit: Ahhhh... I didn't look at the HOD. It hit $147 already. Hmmm. Might have missed the squeeze.
It has a huge short interest... that's why I'm playing it. These things like to soar on up days in the last hour or so when shorts pile on.

VAN YOU DAY TRADED A $35 POS SHIT STOCK FOR $144?

VAN. DON'T YOU KNOW ABOUT PE'S AND EARNINGS AND ALL THAT VALUATION CRAP....

OH MAN TEARS OF LAUGHTER ARE HITTING MY KEYBOARD TODAY.
