-I miss labeled the number of trades on previous posts, sorry about that.
-I started trading at noon today, that is when I got off work.
-I have noticed I hold onto winners longer when I am down on the day. I take profits quicker when I am up on the day.

Traded like a fool today, bought the highs and sold the lows, chased price, held onto losers. Oh well, live and learn.

Strategy: I have been back and forth with my strategy. I have decided to continue with BLASH (buy lows and sell highs). I tried trend following and momentum strategies and that just did not suit me too well.
