Trader P/L 2009

-36 net

I have mush for a brain.
I have no balls.
The only thing I can stick to is the toilet seat, because sticking to my rules obviously is not even a remote possibility at this point.

Can't pull the trigger most of the time, and when I finally do, I get myself out of the trades, then chase and lose....

I was short JPM at 45.83 right when the big dive started....shook myself out and took four more trades, netting a big goose egg - shut the computer down when the stock was at 45.45 or so, just before it dropped another dollar......Same story this morning chasing wfc and ms to the top - watching the stock has never made anyone any money.....

I think I'm going to start my own journal next week - so I can have people flame my ass, maybe that will finally knock some sense into my empty brain....

This is the first day I actually thought about giving up....but I am right too often on my ideas - I just suck at executing and more importantly have no confidence....There is will and there is hope...
 
1.3k

caught SDXC from 18.3+ to 19, then shorted it from 18.95+ to 18.3+. two trades, hit my maxiumum trades number. it seems to me I can do more. but the damn idea of keeping profit restrain me from doing more. particlarly when I was trading SDXC, I saw NQ jumped from 1744+ to 1755, then suddenly dropped to 1745 under, I have no time to think or collect thoughts, it down to 1737.+ then immeadiately bounced to 1743+. that made me rethink" call it a day, enjoy the profit" or continue this game. I said to myself, I could not handle so light-speed change, better collect my strength and when I feel very comfortable, then do it.
so basically done today.

+ $6

Worked on ATS through the morning. Excellent results of +$900 on 100 share lots. I think the tweaking is about done, a few more test days and we go live!

Scratched a couple trades in the doldrums and now have to take off.

Make some money into the close!
