June 5 Trading Recap

Today was a clear trend bull day which is very to see at the end of the day, still working on seeing it while it is happening. Live journaling my trades instead of end of day actually helps a lot with staying present with the price action, which previously was very hard for me to do. I do really enjoy watching and trading the 1 minute chart, i just have to be vigilant with boredom trades Lol.

Positives:
1. Live Journal all my trades
2. Stuck to the 1 minute chart with no indicators.
3. Did not move stop further and did not add to losing trades to be "right"

Improvements:
1. Adding to winning trades has to be the next natural step in my trading
2. I can't be afraid to trade the Mini Nasdaq when I am reading price action correctly
3. Hold the winning trades longer that will cut down on the amount of trades

Don't be to concerned about what happens after you close your trade. You have a plan going into the trade and as long as you follow your plan you have a successful trade.
Some Wall street legend is quoted as saying something along the lines of "I never get in at the bottom or out at the top "
