I worked from home today, so I decided to day trade again... the first spread trade made $$$... I decided to enter again around 11AM EST... by 11:15AM I knew I was wrong when US found support... but I decided to give the trade "time to develop"... I am an idiot, that never works.. I was on the trade for too long, got bored... poked at 10s and corn... I got churned a bit... oh well, I have to remember my rules if I am going to day trade again... in any event, I am done for the day given the account has a hard $750 loss limit for the day...

stop crying, cornflake. have you ever seen a clearing website? i dont know what you expect to see as proof. if someone goes to the trouble to photo shop, then that's their problem. most of us who have been on the board for a little bit or awhile know who is who.
you are obviously not much of trader if you are complaining about some decent numbers going up. people DO make money trading.

It was a tough day for me. I still need to clarify and work on my exits. I am being inconsistent in my exits which is causing some frustrations. I will work on making my exit rules clearer, so I can just push the button when I'm supposed to instead of thinking too much. Today, I trailed too tight on a good one and was knocked out before the big move. On another, I let it be loose and let a decent move come all the way back to my initial stop.

Apart from my $17 in the post earlier this morning, here are my totals. I took one AMZN trade, I really missed riding the trend down BUT still made a profit so who cares! Woulda, coulda, shoulda doesn't make any money.
On a side note, although I thought I was entering off a good setup, my chart got disconnected somehow and when I looked at it I saw a setup I liked and took the trade only to realize my chart hadn't updated properly. So I kind of missed the move. But my stop wasn't hit and another setup formed in my favor so I held for a little bit. Once it got a few hundred in my favor I closed out the position.
