First trade 5 minutes out of the open. This was my first heavy red day after a winning streak of about a couple of weeks. I finished the day with $886.29 in net realized losses after a breakout trade gone wrong on FNJN. I ended up trying to fight back the loss by overtrading and losing a lot of more than I should have if I had just taken the time to calm down and refocus my trading efforts.

My metrics show that the overall market is positively associated with my trading. Today, we had a lot of volatility and choppiness in the markets, as well as a bearish correction in the SPY. I have to be careful, especially on these days, to take smaller share size and not to overtrade. Scalp setups work the best on days like these.

This was a trade you ended up selling too soon on. You got in for the first 1-minute candle to make a new high off of a pullback. You sold the stock after seeing sluggish price action on the Level II, which was to be expected in a choppy day like today. However, the stock immediately took off after the sale. You closed this trade for a $45.09 net realized loss.
