Hi All
I have not posted in a long time. Heres the deal. Last month got absolutely demolished $8700 on my first trading day last month. The most I have ever lost in a day is about $2700, but this was unprecedented. Talk about a deer in the head lights.
This was an absolute blow and completely threw me for a loop. The trade lasted about 40 seconds. It was a dollor candle on a 4 dollar stock, can you believe that?
Took the rest of the week off and came back fighting the following week. Actually wanted to end up positive $1 for the month, that was my goal. Ended up $3200 so was ecstatic about that.
See attachment for March.
I have also attached my numbers so far for this month. Its weird when you take a major major hit and you can come back from it you gain a whole new perspective on your trading, now that I have hit bottom and come back from it nothing seems to phase me, losing a G on trade is not so bad anymore, on the upside I know that I can make more then $500 per day which was my average.
I feel like a born again trader, if there is such a thing.....lol
The numbers for May dont include today which was about $1100.00
Cheers to all - like MilMan says "records are meant to be broken"
The number ONE thing I have learned through my despair from last month is the more trading becomes a money thing the more you are destined to lose.
