April 23rd

Only in the market for 15 minutes. It was a busy day for everything else...

My only thought on this trade was to go bigger than normal with size because of the low price of FAZ and to go with momo and not look for reversal. It paid off with a small gain and as I sensed momo stopping, I exited. Then, it was back to work. I logged off and didn't see the reversal move that followed.

April 20th

I had a chance to get into the markets while I ate my lunch... about 20 minutes in all. I made two practice trades and got a couple small winners... out much too early on both, especially the first one. I took $103 paper-bucks out of a possible $850 available to me on the trade. It bottomed in the next candle. Patience, patience, patience.

Distracted...

My live stock market training is on hold for a few days while I attend to some crucial elements of my construction project as well as Day-Job. I'll try to get in on the action when possible this week.
