Nice Journal.
It's ususally better to give the market time to settle.
I never try to trade within the first five minutes of the US Open on the Financials ... ever.

You have to specifically write down all of your rules for entering and exiting trades, as well as position sizing and money mangement.
This way you will know exactly when you are violating them ...
