July 20 & 21 - No Trades

No trades on Tuesday and Wednesday, too much day-job on Tues. and a 9-hour firearms safety course yesterday. Perhaps today I might have a chance to sit at the computer for some practice.

I saw this formation in TNA and decided to take it long. I was early with it (aka, wrong) but held on while not adding to the losing position. I clearly was faked out by the 1:05pm near-doji candle accompanied by increased volume as compared to the surrounding candles.; thought it was an immediate reversal signal.

However, I was rewarded for my patience 20 mins later, selling at the top of the 1:30 candle for a gain. No time to sit here though, as a 2:30pm day-job appointment is approaching. Good trading to you all.

Thurs & Friday, July 15, 16

No trades. Too much day job piled up after my recent vacation. Still reading and studying blogs in the evenings, however.
