Trader PnL 2017

Really getting tired of this choppy market in indexes.....
Didnt enter ZB long on combine since I didn't want to handle 3 different trades at the same time. But the ZB long turned out to be a $600+ winner
CL tanked at a resistance level I had targeted the entire upmove we had during the day, reminds me to always place stops!

Net: -297

3 trades, 3 losers.

2 of my trades were profitable and I had the opportunity to move my stop to break-even before rapid sell offs today to trigger my full stop-loss. Something to take away today from a risk management stand point going forward.

Really sloppy and bad trading today. Gave away yesterdays gains. Close to daily loss limit, so will stop for the day. Morning I was pushing shorts for a very low reward relative to risk. After I stepped back and realized why ES bottomed there, I became very bullish....however since Im near my daily loss limit, as much as I want to be long ES currently, I cannot :(

Live account. Gotcha, well for one thing vxx and vx futures were at an extreme/resistance. And TF as well as NQ hit support at the same time. I had a different level marked on ES hence why I was pushing even though the other markets were telling me to reverse there. After redoing my analysis on ES with "virgin eyes" my method in ES support was flawed, and I then realized why the tape was showing such resilience.

Finally the confirmation in intermarket with ZB weakness helped with yen as well. ES cleared resistance..... followed by key support yesterday.
I was eyeing ES to pull back to yesterdays low from 2/6 before we head higher...But it took 2 days to get there, which threw me off my game.
I totally got screwed on going NQ long today....... :p
I see more downside at these levels then upside for rest of day.....but it is against the major trend, so I will only take short setup if I see everything lined up....otherwise I probably wont trade for day.

Currently eyeing 5221 on NQ and 2309.5 on ES as resistance areas.

Bet: -165

5 trades, 3 losers, 2 break-evens.

This entire week has been killing me.. every time the NQ hits new highs I get thrown off.. hold too long and winners become break-even or losers.. chase entries too soon and market pulls back on me.. go against market sentiment..etc. Etc. :banghead:

Might take tomorrow off..

So freaking annoyed, I had white line marked as support, saw other traders supporting that level so I chased on entry as 5AM isnt early enough being in the west coast....
Saw equity indexes were near resistance short term, so gave me enough of a reason to go long as well as gold holding up....

They stop hunted me and then went higher lawlz. I guess being pushy cost me. Daily loss limit is killing me, since I missed out on an amazing NQ long. I think CL has a chance of going down from here.....
