Trader P/L 2006

Another wasted day... my usual strategies were trash today, but I managed to make 700 on IVAN up until a slow execution system caused me to lose all of what I made.

Another good day after coming back from snowboarding. If I was not an idiot on some of the other plays could have made at least 7K....but oh well Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Good total here. Hectic morning, was up 3700 and lost 1500 from the top (the same way i got the money, so i was ok with it) and then was consistent and normal from then on, finishing near my high.

No real big blotter busting losses today. ALTI once again was pure cash. Good Times

Millenium Man finished with 6400.

-3318.85 on 8,200 shares

2nd worst day ever. I started out -2000, and floated around posititive $200-$400 all day. I made a bet on aapl buying around the low of the day figuring it would beat mean eps estimates, which it did. frickin' .65 isn't enough for people, I guess. Aside from the bet, I just didn't understand anything today. Every trade I entered was solid, but every one went the wrong way.

Any suggestions on what I should do? It's been two months since I've made any real money, and I'm not doing anything really different. Should I step back or go balls to the wall? I'm not depressed, just confused as to why I'm not succeeding. One thing I will do is step down my share size again tomorrow, if I trade that is. 200 shares at a time, no more.

My account is of nearly 10g's from my peak in late november. With taxes coming up, I need to start putting back some cash. PM me if you have any idears
