Trader P/L 2008

Wouldn't be right to post my best day and not my worst. Everything went bad today. A good chunk is from illiquid swing positions in the absolute worst sector.

I hear you. My main accounts took a serious beating today. Within the first 30 minutes I was down 3% across all accounts and it got worst from there. Worst 1 day loss I've ever had.

Hate intraday trading but today was too sweet to miss, ended up doing spreadbetting with IG Index.

+£6470.23


Shoulda,woulda,coulda !


P.S. How many here were tempted to go ALL IN today ?

I haven't been trading much do to the fact of the crazy T.V. fight over B.S.

I have been pretty much flat for the last 2 weeks. Trade some days and not trading for a few days.

For the last 2 weeks I am up roughly $4,700 and Improving my golf game.

Sometimes it pays big just not to trade.

Congrats to all you guys smacking it out of the park!

I will start posting consistently again, once I feel the market is worth the trading risk.

Wow, sorry to see your bad loss, but I respect you for:
- having the balls to trade such huge size and
- posting your resulting blog

Take care

Strayed from my strategy for one trade and paid the price with BLDP

Decent day for being as tired as I am.

Was an incredible month of insane volatility. Why can't it always be like this?

Hope this continues in October.
