12/31

Happy New Year...!

I think I'll grade Weds. trading as a "c-"

I rode a small little roller coaster, but I am pleased that it didn't turn out for the worse.

I cut a loser when I had to
but, I was definitly heavy scaling in shares a few times.

I could have gotton out with my goal [+1 point on 500 shares = $500] but I wasn't decisive enough and had to wait it out. With all of the snow we were getting and the long drive I was about to take I wanted a short day, but...

ps0013, how are you daytrading with less than 25K? :confused:
 
Hey...
I'm honored that you guys had been following along my posts...

Angry…I am one of your biggest fans and when ever I decide to log onto ET I always check you out at the P/L 2009…

I had decided to stop posting this journal starting 2009. But in the last couple of weeks I have been reconsidering.

When I was posting I was much more focused
All that “one day at a time” and just “making that goal” stuff, typing everyday and posting was beneficial to me.

Since your inquiries to my whereabouts you have helped me decide to come out of the shadows and pick up “Last Pieces of the Puzzle Journal”

So, I’m currently trying a lower daily loss auto/close vs. my daily goal. The days that I have losses are too heavy compared to my winning days.
I am now using a 1 to 3 ratio ($100 goal vs. a $300 day stop)
As compared to when I stopped posting 1/31/08 I was at 1 to 6

Thanks again and It is good to be back posting on this journal

MON 2/23

A pretty good day.

I hit a few trades early and reached the goal of +1.00 without too much trouble.

At this new level of goal vs. stop/close I am more comfortable at pushing for more gains once I’ve achieved the goal, seeing that if I have a losing day it won’t set me back as much.

+236.72 net
5000 shares
