TOS is down for the weekend. So no charts today.
Made +.25 pts on thrusday, 5 trades
lost 4 pts on Friday, 5 trades.
What I'm getting watching Al Brooks ruminate about the market...
If you'd have asked me, I'd have said my trading rules and set ups were clear. But I see that on a surface level maybe they were... but... it's that I'm not doing the 'work'...
looking for the confluence, etc. Understanding more of the possible 'why's'... knowing what to focus on in the different market environments...
So I have a lot more work to do.
Guess I'm seeing more of those 'layers' of learning as we trade.
Tho if I heard right Brooks says his next edition of his book has double the number of pages. Ahhhhhh... to much information, for right now!

This was my cognitvie training program day, so had to zip about a bit and go to Phoenix. Didn't keep up with posting the trades.
Had three total trades before left.
trade 1 -1.5 pts
trade 2 -1.5 pts
same set-up three times, but I was getting ready to leave so attempted to put in a BE trade, and doubled the order instead! But Al Brooks was whispering in my ear right then that probabilities were the market would move right to the TGT I had set... so I let it run and
trade 3, +4 pts, so a net of .5 pts for the day. Amazing.
