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.

Thurs. 3/21
2:30pm CDT - For a green day, this was as messed up as it gets. Only traded ZS1 signals today but the first one was technically a no go as my indicator changed to invalidate the short entry just as my order hit. I really should just get in habit of setting all my indicators with a displacement of +1 to avoid this problem. Then I missed out on a huge winner as described in chart. Stop limit orders generally work great in ZS to avoid slippage but this one hurt.


Love that quote.
