How'd your trading go this week?

The weeks coming to an end. How did you do? And if you don't mind, what type of trader are you? Swing, algorithmic, price action?
%%
AS of 12;59 CST, better than benchmark SPY ; but i got out of leveraged stuff earlier in the week.
Swing, price + some volume; plenty of trend study.
Smaller than average profit on SH\ but thats in line with the tend. Metals business about average; not really trend requirement mostly.
Going from 7 to 100 leveraged anything[>1300% in size] would be the best way i know\ to blow up\ but since i dont want to blow up, i would not do that .
IF one wanted exception thrills + an exceptional good case to blow up an account , increasing size in levered stuff by1,300% would be the way to go. Dont try this @ home.:caution::caution:
Thanks for disclosing you paper traded with 7 to increased 100 leveraged contracts; my remarks were real markets , as of 12;59 CST

I've been real trading with between 3-6 contracts ES for months until just recently where I'm paper trading until I find my adjusted strategy. How many times do I need to say this?
 
Not a Day Trader, but rather a longer term Swing Trader atm, while I work on my Systens and solving this Market which should occur sooner rather than later.

Probably been listening to too many people talking doom n gloom so waiting for a Pullback to get fully invested.

Really strong week long mining and energy stocks. Swing trading with a day trading overlay if the morning open looks good. Went from 0% to 27% cash on my main account this afternoon to lock in some profits and be flexible into next week.

How do you protect your losses in day trading? How long are you willing to wait in the red before things turn around?
