Month: December 2010

HHWW continues faking me out and and I continue to victimize myself by trading it. I have been a much more consistently profitable trader this year compared to last not by having better successful trades but by avoiding more unsuccessful trades. I have never been able to trade the NXTH-type pumps well so I would be better off to just avoid them.

I apologize for my earlier post today that is now deleted. I had had the idea for some time to do an April Fool’s day joke (and what fun is it if it is actually on April Fool’s?) about me blowing up my account but obviously doing that when I was having a bad day and in the middle of the trading day showed poor judgment (just like my trades on HHWW).

 

Daily profit: $1426.17 (this is only because of how I account for boxed positions; my net economic loss today was $2613.83)

Nothing much except some scalping and a failure to nail the HHWW short. HHWW & FCPG top short watches for tomorrow.

Just two trades today. I sold my FCPG right where I wanted to sell, just before the open, at 1.399. Three minutes after the open it was testing green/red at 1.34. Its failure to go red would’ve made for a nice re-entry. My other trade will not be discussed at this time.

Daily profit: $782.60

SOPV would’ve been a nice short at the open but IB failed to even submit my orders to the exchange. I had several scalps, nothing truly interesting. I’ll upload them to Profit.ly in a week or so.
