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.

Tues. 8/14 - Timeout
10:00am CDT - OK, I'm in a funk and can't shake it. No surprise to most of you reading this. Today's trading is a perfect textable example of how not to trade during chop. And how not to follow your trading plan. Perhaps I'll try something totally different, and something I've never advocated, and trade a demo account for a bit? See if that will help me work out my "issues." No live trades for me until the week after Labor Day at the earliest. Let's see if I can stick to a self imposed break. The markets suck right now anyways. Comments off because I've heard everything I need to hear already.
