Thurs. 6/01 -3.7%

11:15am CDT - Sabotaging myself to start out the month. Chopped on 3 trades prior to inventory report, then I had the brilliant idea to put in bracket orders to capture any inventory spike. F'ing brilliant. Slippage on both orders too of course just for good measure.  CL may get kicked to the curb again for awhile.
Net breakdown (contracts traded):
CL -$536(4), ES -$90(1)
RESULTS FOR DAY
Contracts:5
Net $P/L: -626
Wins: 0
Losses: 5
Win%:0
Avg$Win: 0
Avg$Loss: -126

  1. CL was/is choppy trading today. I've added ZC, ZN, and HE futures to my watchlist to increase my chances of spotting a better trending market.

  3. CL sucks! Certainly something to be said for trading the "less traded" thinner markets that potentially thousands fewer day trading algos are messing with! HE = mmm, bacon! :)

  4. Were you trading the problability of good inventory news or a problability of a good setup? You seemed to have expectations which can be dangerous. You said yourself, self sabatoge, which in my mind translates to trading in hopes and dreams or expectarions. I dont know though, just trying to help. :)
