Not too bad today, traded mostly my live account. Got suckered into a stupid trade on a lusy low-volume clunker on which I made a successful paper-trade this morning. I hated to end the day on a loser but it is what it is. Had fun attempting to follow Scott Farnham on TNA throughout the day. He was a prolific poster today and so I got a chance to see his uncanny feel for changes of direction. To do what he does is my ultimate goal.
In my live account, I played SKF early on and later played TNA as I followed Scott. My only real loss was that EOD clunker in which I managed to lose 33% of my gains; small as they were. Still thankful for the gain on the day and losers are to be expected, especially since I am relatively new to this and only in my third day of live trading since the two weeks last October when I first began. That's three days and all three for winners. I still expect a losing day anytime so that is what keeps me sharp.

8 for 10 winners, an 80% win rate. Gains of $70 in the real acct and $21 in the paper acct in 6.5 hours of trading.
