low volume, but I tried a modification to an old strategy today. Stupid part was tightening the stop in the strategy. I was initially right, had I the balls to hold on about 10 more cents, I would have recognized the reversal and not gone short. Stupid stupid me. It's a good thing my swing trades are going the correct direction, finally.

sized down alot
I'm disgruntled and done for the day. I had written on my calendar that the FOMC meeting was today, so I was convinced it would be so slow and choppy yesterday and today. I avoided trades and used stops that were way too tight. If I traded according to my normal system and style I would have made at least $600 in the last two days combined. Instead, I made about $30. Today, I managed to lose money on SPLS long and only made 3 cents on EBAY short. I am even more pissed because I just noticed I messed up since the meeting is at the end of March not February. I wrote it on the wrong month!
Oh well, at least I didn't lose money. Also, I started at the shop I'm at in September of 2005. I've sucked for months. Finally, a net positive month!
