kurt.. just curious . If your so good looking. why don't you have a girlfriend? maybe you have some personality issues? you just sound immature in your comments. just like a 12 yr old . probably why your striking out in finding a gf. .. your arrogant .. not confident .. you have so much to learn about life. You should just stick to trading & maybe you will get lucky & make some money so you can brag to all the ladies about how great you are. ok romeo

ive been drinking but let me tell you
I am a god damn man of the future,
power plants are fueled by the sweat from my brow,
my physical type can not be classified by science,
when they plug me in the lights go out in Hong Kong!

i guess if your drunk & posting on et .. seems like you struck out again with not getting lucky. maybe you should try that line on your pantie hunt. keep trying.. don't give up.
Yeah, maybe I was! I went to karaoke with a lovely girl. I think we would be great in a relationship, we share a lot of values, though the only red flag is that she's never dated someone like me, and I've never dated someone like her. Neither of us our each other's typical 'type.'
Though, I met this other girl at the mall the other day, lives right down the street, loves Radiohead, pretty, very chill, definitely a good prospect. Though, she might be a bit young. I turn 27 on June 30, and she might be in the 19-21 range. I don't mind, I suppose the real question is, am I too old for her? I didn't ask her out, I failed to hit the hotkey despite all the positive factors, though I'll see her again I'm sure.
Anyway, I get back to trading tomorrow. I may be a bit premature, as the market has not closed yet, and we keep selling off in the last 10 minutes of the day, but it looks like the market might be making its bounce here. It will be interesting to see if it is just a technical blip up, or the beginning of a move to a potential summer range high. I am hoping we get a range high, as I put 50% of my 401k back into stocks last week as we neared nuclear fallout lows.
It is funny how during the rally up, everyone was so excited about S&P 1400. Pumping up the market. Now that we're correcting, everyone is talking about all the downside in the market, doom and gloom. Financials were running early in the year, "This is going to be the year of the financials!" lol
This week I'll be looking to continue sizing up, though looking to cut down my number of trades.
i see you making your moves on the ladies.. well it cost you a day of trading .. have to keep your head in the game. don't count on this market going to year high's anytime soon. looking for a good sell off over the next few months.. like to see some volitility. market is dull. tomorrow is another day. go get em..

na, I'm at job #2 today, I will be trading on Tues Thurs and Fri this week
I'll agree, the hunt for females definitely qualifies as an unhealthy distraction, but as I was discussing with ElecEquity earlier in this journal, having a down female around can be quite beneficial to players in this brand of market game.

Basically got raped all day long. Couldn't get anything to go my way. Anything that did work went a shitty distance. Couldn't find any quality setups. I mean, I got smacked by a large trout today. Had a terrible time getting anything going.
Market grinded up without a pullback all morning. By the time the pullback came, the market was dead.
Got in some decent trades, but didn't take profits as I aimed to ride the trend. Of course, the stocks I chose to let run did not make new highs with the market.
Definitely had chances to have a better day, but I didn't take outs.
I was one of the only guys in the red in the office today.
I tried everything in the tool kit and everything went shitty. Bought dips, played flags, entered news, played reversals. Everything was so damn shaky on this low volume day. Just not worth it. Levels broke but zones held. Jigs all over the place.
Today was a day, where I would just say, it wasn't my kind of market. I had absolutely no confidence in anything I touched today. I failed to adjust when it became quite clear that I had no edge.
Well, I've reached a point where I have to force myself cut back my trading. I can't attack the market anymore, I have to play it safe now. I have to wait 30 years for setups to present. It will f*cking kill me to sit here like a 9 year old who just got smacked in front of everyone by the fat Mexican running the day care.
Lacking in efficiency, completely. Should aim for 8 tickets only. At this point, I need to focus on trading less and taking profits. At this point, I need to grind my account up to a safer level. It is so, so hard when a second job pulls you away from the market. I can't describe how aggravating it is.
My birthday is June 30.
I'll be back Thursday.
