That was a very frustrating day. None of my pre-planned trades triggered, but I found a few trades in my scans. I started the day with a couple of small losses. Also, I hit the button, but missed the entries on a couple of great trades that would have made a fantastic day. I felt myself feeling very pissed off. I took a short break to clear my mind and took one more trade. I was then ticked out by two cents on a trade that eventually went my way. I'm watching it go up and up towards my target as I type this. It was a rough day.

So far, the commissions have raped me left and right with other firms, now am with TD Ameritrade, I get 60 days of commission free trading, looking to make the best of it.

It was looking like a good day in the morning and then the swings and chop killed me.

I was on the wrong side of that market drop. All long and knocked out very quickly.

an experiment in equities with a small account...
my objective was to close the P&L @ $225 gross... I started the day wrong per say... trying to average in my hedge for my shorts with a long made me lopsided overall.. so I had to average in higher than lower... next time I need to hesitate less...
lightspeed platforms sucks, liquidate all should mean liquidate all (take liquidity) not sit on the bid/offer providing liquidity to close out... that cost me $100 from the P&L before I realized what it was doing and by then I was totally without a proper hedge...

Well, it's not red, so that's good. I was ticked out of two trades by one cent only to watch them take off. Oh well. I didn't lose.

Today, I went away from my plan of action and I paid dearly.
