July 7 Stats


Was able to capture 10 points today, however I do need to be more disciplined with my exits.

I think my extensions I create off of the opening price can serve as reversal/continuation zones.

Still learning the 1-minute price action everyday, making a concerted effort to establish 10 point profit targets and really master the art of small consistent wins

Today marked a huge change on my trading mental approach, ironically it happens on a red day.
On a day where my first trade was a full 40 point stop out, I felt all the urges after that:
1) add to the loser until im even
2) widen the stop even more "to give the trade room"
3) After stopped out trade bigger to "make it back"
4) Change markets for better risk profile
5) "finish the day green"

So 4 and 5 are my most dangerous thoughts in day trading and I was able to acknowledge them both without doing something that would have derailed a trading session for me in the past.

Today I was able to acknowledge that loses happen and I just kept trading with reasonable stops and made 21 points of profit the rest of the session and finished the day -19.5 points.
