down

I'm down  like 20 bucks...I didn't make a trade today.  Those two bad days wiped out my mojo.
                               But I did make a video.

Nice sell off at the end....wish I was daytrading!!!!!!!!!!

Big red

     So I'm done trading the futures.  I am too stupid.  Yea, that about sums it up.
     I have 4 separate accounts....3 of them will end the year positive.  And this account is just screwing things up.  My SEC suspension should be lifted by now, allowing me to trade stocks again...I should no longer be classified as a pattern day trader (my 90 days is up).  Since all my other accounts trade stocks on a swing basis (because of the stupid day trading rule)....this account will now also be swing trading stocks.
     I don't have a clue how to make my daily goal with my small account sizes.  And with the diversifying, it will be tough.
     I'M LOOKING AT THAT 5 MINUTE YM CHART NOW SAYING,  HOW COULD YOU OF NOT MADE MONEY TODAY?  CRAP, I'M AN IDIOT.

Oh yea... out CENX for 70 cents, out TSO for 50 or 60 cents, out GS for 1.79......all I  have right now is NETC, OC, ETFC

I'm down 150.   The winning streak has ended.  Woe is me.  Oh wait.....I have my thanks you fricking market maker.  Bring on the spike down, take out my stop, and reverse picture.  Yep, I'm just paranoid.          (man o man, do I take blurry pictures)

eh, just barely.

Who do I talk to about this, seriously!!!  Get my stop part 2---buy it at 10464 and watch it drop--take my money and reverse-----DEJA VU  Was my stop too tight?  Most likely--but I had profits to keep.  I believe if my stop was lower, then the market maker would have taken it lower to get to my stop.  Bitch, bitch, bitch...

The first YM trade was almost a mistake, and would have cost me.  Following that trend would have got me in at the highs.  I had my finger on the button, it was so close.  I did two short trades, and the messed up long listed above.

Took a short on CENX--for no other reason but following the guy from the hedge fund.  That's me day.

Should have helped him out, I guess.  The market was moving so slow, I could have thrown in some protect the profits for him.

Other stuff:  Ecoli in the beef in my state.  So, ya, I was poisoned.  Lucky me.  And now I'm off to load stuff on the computers at work.  Unlucky me.  (wow, did I just lose both ways....damn.

                           A CHRISTMAS WISH

Took one YM trade today.  The Gorilla has so many picks he has over 2 screens of space.  (I moved around my charts today).  Every day this week is a winner, I think it's some kind of record.   Don't know for sure, and I'm too lazy to look back and see...I guess what I was trying to say was.....
EVERY DAY THIS WEEK WAS A WINNER.

Robot: 1 loser, minus 69.26
ya, he made one trade and blew it...sigh

Other stuff:  I'm out to shovel the walk...it seems like everyone was wishing for a white Christmas because it snowed almost everywhere.  After warming up with the Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes, it will be wrapping presents time.  Remember that fantasy list?  No one on that list got a present from me.  That's kinda depressing.  I deleted the list, but I didn't delete them.
Guess their key board has a bigger delete button, or maybe they were doing their hair, out of the country, or the "my phone hasn't been working" etc., etc.

I'm Green


I know we've all been there.  Stock is going up, and we stick in a  stop to protect our profits.  Then, out of no where the stock turns and goes down to your stop (and I do mean MY STOP, to the penny).  Then the sucker turns on a dime and screams back up.  And just to make sure you don't forget.... it goes to highs!!
You gotta just love this game!!!!!!!

Ummm 4 YM trades today.  3 winners, 1 loser.

I have a small account that only needed 6 dollars to end the year positive.  I bought some GS, but the sucker went down.  Now that account needs GS up around 167.30 to make that account green.
OC-------this thing---------every time (twice now) I'm up 50 cents and I don't grab my profits and it drops like a rock.
That greed stuff always seems to get in my way of taking money off the table.  I day dream about untold wealth every time I buy, short, or just whenever a stock goes my way....ya, even when it goes the wrong way.

Green today.  Only had one YM trade, don't think it was the best entry, should have picked it up on the 200 day EMA but I was scarred, and picked it up later.  I need to trade more-I  just want to keep my profits.
