Quote from kamek:

i have beeb paper trading for a while. i've been trading for 2 years now. this is my 2nd day "full time" tho. i bought too many contracts thats all because it was going my way. it turned on a dime on me. it was greed.

With a $6K account I wouldn't be trading anything more than 1 contract.

Short 1359.5, stop near 1361.25, hard +10

Scaled out 2/3 +2.5

Reason for shorting was quick range expansion followed by weakness on 1m chart's 2nd up swing failing to take out HOD, so small stop gunning for potential double top
 
i was trading rimm options...i had 10 of them. i admit i had denial and i was pushing the stop up alittle (i was short). then i was just like fuck it. all my discpline went out the window. the lost could have been under 100 dollars

Looking for the next good short. Only trading from the short side, but market has been oversold so far today. The right signal may or may not come today.:)
