Two Questions For Practicing Day Traders

Here is something else I do for example for this week. Let's say you are profitable after M through Thursday. I will take off Friday and just maybe do practice trades on Friday. This is what is going to happen this week. Now if my trades did not work out today, I would try to trade on Friday. The reason for this is I don't want to turn a winning week into a losing week right before the long weekend.

Good discovery, almost as good as Columbus ;
in the sense of trade equity trend.
I took off Columbus day, not because of the bond markets closed LOL\
i simply like to take off every now + then.
On investments /really doesn't help;
even though OCT spikes [if i get too many wrong LOL] I cut back those on also.
Cash metals, cash copper , almost never take off, but do schedule that business around stuff like SPY ,qqq or QLD bench mark market patterns...............................................

I would do the opposite, meaning I would trade tomorrow if I lost today after being profitable up till today - which I am and so far today as well. Although not bigly.

Should I trade Friday? I had a bad day today. :banghead:
 
I don't know if you have "an edge" or not. I do know that paper trades DO NOT take into account market makers, huge/hedge funds, and dark pools.

Apples vs oranges concerning paper trading...
