Fortunately my memory is getting worse so all I have is the NOW

Kind of choppy so far. Looks like no trades until after Inv #'s

More of the same. Only one serious mistake of me exiting before stop resulting in missing a target. Otherwise I did my job as trader today.
Choppy action so passed on a trade that I normally would take.
I'm trading well but I need to push myself to get to next level of even fewer mistakes. Right now though I'm just enjoying not losing money most days.
Can't become complacent. Stay focused and patient. Expect better discipline.
After commish it was slightly above BE for the day.

Dog Gone Right!!!!
Good Job
I can't count the number of times I wished I was BE EOD
Simply suck ass pitiful on my part - and no excuse
=============
On another note;
Very few jobs where one can't be complacent at times - trading is one of them
When we're working - we have to be on

My first reaction to the day was a bit of frustration. However I traded the plan fine. All valid and managed well. Ended -2 ticks.
The frustration comes from the action being rather choppy and I then lose some focus. I think it's intentional disengage so I don't do something stupid. Of course then I see some set ups that I could have taken had I been better focused.
I believe given my skill set trading my set ups in wide ranges like today that I traded properly. I would like to improve my skills so that I can better recognize my set ups and take more valid trades on these type days.
So after review I'm not frustrated. Just a day of trading.
As an aside (to borrow a RN phrase); there used to be lots of days where I would review and wonder why I took a trade; either chased or took an invalid set up. It's not happening much , maybe once this week. It's a good feeling to have that control over my trading. I believe it comes from really understanding my set ups, patience, practice and screen time. As mentioned above room for improvement but I like the progress.
