A daily chronicle of results of one retail futures trader trading my own accounts. I define myself as a day trader and generally swing for at least a few points most of the time. But I do make the occasional scalp for ticks too.

Losing Wed.
2:50pm CST - Frustrating 3rd day of the year. Overtraded and took some questionable setups. I'll show ya 6 of the losers today:
Net breakdown: 6E -$339(3), 6J $66(2), RLM -$199(3), ZS $24(5)
I still think sticking with one market is better than trading 4 at the same time but whatever works for you. Good luck
ReplyDeleteIt was frustrating for me too, I zig, the market zags.
ReplyDeleteEMini- thanks, 4 or so is about my limit but with alarms, etc. (once I figure out what works) more is possible.
ReplyDeleteM-those zags are not always fun!
