week ends and i went up 1600 profit, and i had a nasty 1300 loss on DRIO which is why i wont trade anymore first 15 minutes of the market opening now to prevent those losses, would be nice to be up 2900 if DRIO wasn't included.. also missed out on 3-5 500-1000 gains from thinking they can go higher and just simply not exciting when they break critical levels. need to follow my rules better

$CLVS been a bit but locked in 300 profit. this stock is my absolute favorite. my win percentage on this strong is probably nice and high and a good chunk of losers were from taking small losses to prevent taking abig hit and the winners are all nice beautiful % and $ amounts. Thanks CLVS ill Trade you as much as i can

Todays goals :dont over trade, dont ride breakdowns, sell into strength so you dont wtch 1000 gains turn to 0 like has happened all week (who rides stocks 10-20% just to watch them go down the same amount) and trade my two patterns only, nothing else

over call since oct 24th when i started my new account i am down 286 but i have been trading a bit differently now, only playing two patterns which are basically the same thing, and im letting my profits run until they prove the top could be in. i had some nasty losses that im surprised i made up for, one was a 700 loss on $ADXS thanks to computer issues and i couldn't get back up to sell out the shares which actually went up 15% in the green before i sold, then another taking a 1k+ loss on a stock that skyrocketed from 1.5 to 3.2 in 15 minutes then crashed back down and i bought the dip. that stock went r/g before i sold it. the pattern that i am trading is working so well for me that i am actually able to offset all the stupid moron mistakes ive made, and ive made a lot of mistakes that cost me 20%, usually buying premarket on the first initial spike thinking eh easy money. this rarely works. I literally draw my pattern each day before i trade so i dont trade anything else because i know if i am loyal to my pattern, i will leave the week with $$ and thats the only reason im here, no?

Restarting new trading account, will be using stop loss orders, watching motivational videos to get me in the right mindset( was doing at start of previous account and was working well) and also personally writing out each trade for buy levels, targets, exits, float, short %, reason why, resistance, support, and video taping each and every trade. 3k starting

started the week off with a great trade, being up quite a bit, held a terrible trade that through me off my game because i didnt understand why it wouldnt bounce(buy earnings before release, not after unless they prove to hold like $CLVS did) and today im back on my game near record profits around 1k. I see I have great potential to become an incredible trader but clearly I still need a lot of work. Big set backs like the one i had this week will postpone my progress and has potential to hurt me more when i get my account size bigger.

what started off as a great week being up 33% total on my account is now back to being up only 5 percent, rough. Need to get my groove back. Also be careful dipbuying earnings winners, those things are buy the rumour sell the news type trade unless they can prove themselves. Currently long overnight on $CLVS, looks like it has a chance to run at opening, which would suggest a run upto 4.5-5 range, my goal is 4.7-5 to exit from a 4.25 entrance. was originally 4.08 but added on when support continued to prove to hold.

Tried buying $CRC for the EOD run up, bought a bit to early and took a loss on trade, wasnt able to cut losses fast since it dropped rather quickly at 8.18, my exit price while i was taking food out of then oven, noticed 8 holding so rebought it, overall up 3 dollars today... right idea, wrong time, wrong entry price, that simple.got out at the 8.4 EOD spike right before close, could spike monday but im just not confident in it looking at the chart. good catalsyt though for sure. will post trades tomorrow since questrade wont let me add them until after midnight

As a result of not being able to cut loses quickly, and losing 12.75k, i am erasing all trades and starting from scratch. not to hide them but to not constantly remind me that I am losing. I will have 3k value in this new account with 0 margin. I have to trade wisely, i have to cut risks or this account WILL NOT GROW. I will grow my account to be worthy of larger trades. If I manage to blow it up, I have back up money to restart. The goal is to take 3k and turn it into 6k as safely as possible. Time is not of importance. I will have to focus on the best plays that bring 10-20% gains, or 10-1 risk to reward to make this account work. I am excited for what the future will bring and will take the lessons of my mistakes with me to try to make this account progress towards its goal. I will be aiming for 1-2 trades per day, if 3 at the very most, and heck if I don't trade, ill pat myself on the back. I simply want the best of the best plays and ideally will mainly be trading first hour or two in to the market open.Wish me luck.

Monday marked the first day of my third week trading this particular way, watching for breakouts and trying to learn what a fakeout looks like. I have been having GREAT trades BUT my main issue that is preventing me from getting traction is CUTTING LOSSES QUICK. I have beautiful winning trades played near perfect, not all of course like I gained 15% today on %TSS which my entry was missed at 1.4 and I ended up selling at like 1.2ish. anyways, the problem is if you look at my trades is the losing ones you would think okay I see why he bought it, now why the hell did he hold it until it got all the way down there... Once I conquer this, I will be a profitable trader. It wont be easy though.
