  • Worst day (Oct. 20th, 2014) in 7 weeks
  • Massive overtrading
  • Did not cut losses quickly
  • Forgot or did not apply most rules
  • Did not look for set-ups - gambling
  • Slap in face after great Friday last week (Oct. 17)
  • Had up to 6 positions at the same time!!!! Insane.
  • Will have to start from scratch and go slow
  • Rule for this week (Oct. 21st.) max. 8 trades per day, overtrading is something I dont need

Comments:

  • Solid trade for me
  • Covered way too early
  • Was up 18-20% on the day or 7-8 dollars
  • Entry was key
  • Took short when price spiked up
  • Risk towards VWAP, which was nicely above
  • First sign of weakness, waited for bounce, shorted and second round of weakness led to drop
