Tough Month?

Quote from Hydroblunt:

LOL it was a protective measure by myself to make sure I did not overtrade the last Friday of the May, you know the one that everyone leaves early to start the Memorial day weekend. It worked out well, I traded very little, made 800 bucks and left by 12pm. It was kinda fun, first time I tried it. Noone in a prop office cares bout that stuff, I heard this one kid there was coming in high everyday and also smoking a blunt during lunch.
I won't risk going in this Friday, good luck to whoever does.

i often have my best days after a little toot on the crack pipe. :D


you think im mad? im not - its the only way to take the emotion out of trading - you just dont give a fuk after a few rocks. i read it in an interview with some super trader - he said the best traders trade without any emotion - so there you go! the only thing you care about is where the next rock is coming from so you gotta make the bux so you can run out and score some more - great motivator.


i dont understand these traders who constantly drink black coffee all day - gimme a bottle of voddy any time.

it improves my trading AND my driving no end.

Guys who usually make between 15-30k a month are making less than 5k, some are even negative. I cant speak for swing traders, but daytraders in my office are feeling the pain of this market.

Negative here as well, after a great start to the year...

this month has been horrid for me.:(
 
Nasdaq was great this month. Nasdaq 100 seems to be up almost 10% this month. Almost straight up, with nice follow through.
 
I guess no matter what day, month or year it is there is always someone who is killing it and someone who is getting killed. I just figured I'd start this thread because it seemed like many traders i know all kinda felt the same way about this particular month.

This month was not bad for me, but this week sucked. After about 300k shares I'm +$350 woohoo. Bring on June!

Hey if thats a sucky week by your standards you are doing great. Its easy to make money in the markets but it is difficult not to give it back.

Should have taken the day off, there were opportunities but I blew and lost money today. Traded whole day without any break, very tired. Going to really rest up this weekend. Have a good weekend everyone!
