my day trading journal

My daily goal will be to
make .06 to 1.5% (200 - 450.00) on these funds. 2,000 - 2,250 are my weekly goals, which is 8,000 to 9,000 a month. This is more than enough to live off of, however the only question is; can I make these kinds of returns consistantly?.

Good luck with reaching your goals.

How many shares are you buying at a time? Obviously, the more shares, the easier it is to met your goal.
 
OK!.. I'm sorry but I made a mistake here. Because I trade such

small size, my platform doesn't accurately calculate my

commission costs or my P/L unless I trade a minimum of 500

shares.
...this puts a whole new spin on my trading.

Unless I do 500 shares per trade, then I'm paying 3.00 per trade.

so..

I can either reduce my # of trades to save on coms or trade in

500 lots... oh boy.

I will update this journal with all the right numbers asap.
