Late start to the day, will be making a video of tomorrow's trading.

My goal for tomorrow's video is no more trading for ticks.

Still doing a poor job of holding winning trades, but I'm doing a touch better.

Reading the market well today.

(+$25 yesterday, had a few other obligations and couldn't trade as long as I would have liked to)

Still watching and waiting for CL to do something:

Wow, went short and then placed my OCO orders and didn't have time to move the target lower.

Really surprised ES didn't hit 2100 this morning.

Not really feeling like trading today, got up late and missed the open, need to refocus.

Reading the market well, but putting on the trades was tough today for some reason, just not in a risk on mode personally today I suppose.

Consistency, yes, but this is not winning trading.

Need to trade to win, not trade to not lose.

I just wanted to post two resources I found very helpful and inspiring tonight as I was reviewing my trades and thinking about next week.

1st is an episode of the "Weekend Trader" and 2nd is a podcast from Michael Covel with Charles Faulkner on goals.

Not looking at PNL or DOM, just watching chart after trade entry really helps, like surprisingly so.

Can't wait for Lak's new vid this afternoon (he is live today)!
