A Journey

Day 10: 6/24/2020: A little break

  • Fire up the charts and the automation.
  • ES today because NQ is still no liquidity
  • Joined the trade room so I could listen in between calls
  • Started with all TA’s on semi and long/short OFF

Having been distracted with work through the morning sessions the last couple of days, today was my first opportunity to focus after I wrapped up my morning calls.

Trade 1 - Winner DTX reinforced by a DM call but I saw it setting up which is a good sign.

Trade 2 - Winner. TX Filtered and I forgot to turn the ODD DRD TA off so it fired as well which was not intentional but it worked out.

Trade 3 - DTX short again reinforced by a call in the room but solid trade

Total Trades: 3

  • Winning Trades : 3
  • Losing Trades:0
  • P/L: 4.25 Points

Lessons learned:

  • Being in the room and paying attention helps but it helps more if I can see the setup coming before anyone says anything.
  • Don’t worry so much about being in right at 9:30, there are trades all morning most mornings.
  • Focus on the ETX trades as they have the highest probability.

End of day feeling: Good day after a break for a couple of days and I am starting to be able to anticipate what setup might be coming based on what is on the chart currently. Stick with the trend, and ensure if there is a strong direction I am ignoring the retraces and catching the larger trend direction.

Overall mood: Good.
