green

green, it pretty much changes how you feel.  It really is not supposed to, but losing days do really make me a failure and winning days make me a success.  And that overwhelming need to win every day.
It still comes down to that amount of cash in your account that drives almost 90 percent of being a success or failure.  Realizing that an account is so small that 50 cents a share is needed just to break even, while that same amount gets a professional trader out with a good profit.  The horror of upping share size, to have that one stock be your one bad pick of the week.  Or having that 5 dollar profit sitting there with a stop loss just to get 5 dollars.....not a share...total profit...only because your account can not afford any downside.
The under funded wannabe.  that's me.

Put on one futures trade and made 3 points....the rally lasted over 20 more points...but I can't afford a loss..so the tight stops.

Robot:  6 winners, 11 losers, minus 257.42
If I don't get distracted tonight, I'm going in for brain surgery on his butt......wait, is that where it is?  No wonder he has been posting such a terrible record.

Other stuff: been living on candy bars and the last of my frosting for three days now, tomorrow I think I'll have to go to the store and buy actual food.
