Second to last day of the trading month and I had another negative day. Just 1 trade, stopped out. I thought I had a nice trade, even went in my direction, but guess what? After stopping me out with a few tics! Those trades hurt the most, you get stopped out, then the market goes [...]

Beautiful move up today! Sort of reminded me of last Thursday except I didn’t get much of this today! Yea yea, I know, bothers me, but oh well! Can’t have ‘em all. I had 1 trade on the E-mini NASDAQ (NQ) and was stopped out and that was it for my e-mini trading today. The [...]

Today ended up being another negative day. I wasn’t expecting much from today’s early trading, although at times there are some good [...]
