1st of 4 trades this morning on $TSLA. Tried to short spikes on tesla after it ran one ATR. Even with small size I managed to lose money on this one. It's clear for me now that I don't make money on such trades as you need to react fast and you don't think straight at that moment and you get frozen as your P&L even with so small size changes too much. So from tomorrow I quit this strategy and will use those where I have edge. If I didn't take these first three silly trades I am ashamed of as I put too much risk on them, I would be up more than $500 today as this is the amount I made on just one trade when I finally saw the right setup I am familiar with. All in all even on $TSLA today.
