Trader P/L 2008

I changed my mind. I won't stop posting my profit and loss. Maybe someday it will help another noob trader.

As you can see from my blotter, I dropped below 25K...again. I have a 2k deposit on hold until Tues. I will, of course, be going back to 200 share lots and using much tighter stops.

My new goal is to aggressively defend my trading capital and unrealized profits. If a trade is going against me, riding it 20, 30, 40 cents won't change that fact. Better to get out and get back in if the stock turns around.

...and without further ado:

I lost in December and again in Jan. I'll see what happens after end of this month (Feb). I have no time for pairs but will do someday. Good luck to all! :D

Been making money in the morning and bleeding it out in the afternoon lately. Breaking the cycle today. Nice morning gains +674 and done!

The name of the game is to KEEP the green. :eek:

bottom picking cost me 200+ early in the morning, and i found something i could sit on. and i did

sitting around most of the morning watching CNBC waiting for my position to move. got greedy and didnt exit at a potential resistance.

instead, i looked ahead and picked a morning high as a potential resistance, and made that an absolute target. this made me very bias towards the absolute infallible price target, and i stopped being objective. what an idiot!

but i did wake up and get out. but not as high as i could, definitely way off that "price target"

i'm glad i did, because of that mistake


man, im going to have to stay late @ the office
