Trader P/L 2014

[Brianharvey]

First week in the pnl thread:

m + 231.4
t + 352
w - (624.25)
th + 36.5
f + 236.2

Total = +231.85

+5 net

Man, I can't seem to get very far from zero these days. I've done some things to help stabilize my trading and make it safer, but I can't seem to get any good win days.

Freakin' hard, ain't it!

-136

Was at about -500 at one point. Pleased that I was able to turn it around a little bit, but it took lots more trades.
Commissions have eaten me alive.

As time rolls on and I continue to post consistently profitable blotters each week, you can think whatever you like about that too.

When next week comes, I will resume posting with no doubt about account #s.

Don't be so confused... I changed my mind about posting here. As I told you before, it was possible and you'd simply have to adjust. But as a parting post, here's the Russell 2000 emini results from my personal "Take Five" daily business plan for my intraday trading.

-5pts and it's max loss shutdown for the duration. +5pts or greater per contract and it's personal choice to continue working or call it a successful day.

80F and sunny outside, snow and cold return tomorrow. I elected to take five and call it a day... now it's time to prep the boat for an afternoon of crappie fishing. The spawn is on... prime time to limit out by dark!

I spent all day bouncing around in the red.

Finally, sold the weekly spreads and rebought amzn/nflx long butterflies, although delta from spy losses outweighed these long butterflies significantly
