December 10 - Last Friday

I forgot to put up Friday's simulated trading results. I am currently short a practice-trade in TNA from Friday. Could be a rough opening for my position, given that the futures have been strengthening all morning. I am with a customer for the early morning then back around 11:00 am or so. I'll have to wait and see how my swing-trade fares.

December 9

I struggled some with the accuracy of my entries but bought my way out of it by picking my spots carefully as I scaled in. Certainly not ideal, but effective. At some point, I will accept momentum and choose to play with trend more often than counter-trend.

I took it on faith that I would begin to feel when direction changes are to take place and I am starting to get it, for the most part. Much more to learn though, that's for sure.

December 8 - later

I was able to take 2 more practice trades in TNA after my work appointment. Mostly I watched the market closely, seeing other areas to get in but satisfied to just study.
