I write this report on 01/12/2019.

The week has been though and the hardest ever!!!!! I couldn't even write my reports. I was broken!!!
01/08/2019 has been the hardest day in my trading experience. Today I faced the highest moment of frustration since I have started trading. All this led me to see an analyst for me to put down and made real what was already clear to me. Happened now too many times that I follow rumors around and this brought me to explode today in a huge cry after the market closed. I want to be responsible for MY ACTIONS. I don't want to lose or gain due to somebody else. The appreciation I have for my trading colleagues does not have to influence my trading choices.
This trade was not planned by me. I have followed a rumor and in addition I even made a mistake when closing the position adding more shares cause pressed the wrong hot key. Second entry shows clearly MY PROBLEM IN RELATION TO MANAGING A PROFITABLE TRADE.

Closed anticipating the second profit target.
This let me realize that my trading style was adapting on the fact that I was not able to spot profitable trades stopping out all of them prior profit targets. Thus I have traded allowing me very small losses but not allowing me big profits, everything proportioned. The real practice has to be on profits, I have at least to triplicate the actual results.
