A fabulous day for you! +44 cents! No wonder you took off. I begin to see what your strengths are: well-timed entries, cutting losses quickly, willingness to re-enter after a scratched trade, and not letting a profit get away from you. I suggest you not sweat letting profits run until you have all the virtues I mentioned totally ingrained and reflexive. You can always learn to let winners run given the confidence the other skills give you. It was sweaty armpits holding for me. Shorted at 37.60 and chickened out at 37.233. You just graduated to retirement in Mexico!

I have to learn to push the trade. miss some trades, wait never never chase, always trade the return do not ever chase it again. Slow your speed down to the QQQ's you always see things too much up and down I must exit or not trade whenever the 5sto crosses over. I was trading against it NEver do this again Do not play against the 5sto Do not play against the 5sto A bad trading day. Always i try to short into strength. In the future the max. trades per day will be 5 Always trade with the 5sto and 1sto into a broken 1ma line within 3 cents of the line. Come on now. you have a great plan find the power to follow it. Always check the 5sto first, understand the corridor, trade with it.For god's sake wait until the 1ma breaks for sure Be patient. Wait. max. 5 trades a day you need this
