No trades yesterday great restraint. Today 20 in trade fees, way overtrading, luckily a few wins to offset the vast majority of losses, only profitable due to having right read, and a few well times trades. Started down -250, up and down to zero and 150 then finally nailed the main idea 62 ish bdown want more but ok for now. NO READ NO ENTRIES. *LESS ENTRIES, BETTER KEY LEVEL n HOLD, avoiding death by 1000 cuts, MORE PATIENCE, less trading, still.

Work shower ate Wanting to hold this longer short but mkt made me want to cut it at a great .50 profit, great patience, read, smart entry, and the it aligned well enough with the mkt for me to get a decent move, may re enter, just did twice stop out both gave $50 back! Enter again at 63 got fast .18 one min scalp exited could held longer went again .50 (prior 2 entries were 62.50s, learning improve restraint, emotion, overtrading, aligning, study study learn improve

Work smoothie no time mkt all red wanted to try this zone in this stock but knew it had lots of buying support just hoped it might be able to breakdown, 7 short entries, meaning overtrading, forcing, just small stop outs piling up not good, looks like too risky to be shorting after such a big down day and everything is at lod big support zones, knew it live n learn improve after hours mkt and this coming down of couse always AH 😂 don’t like holding over but great analysis at least

Worked no time possible squeeze play but mkt environment flat went for squeeze into close not volatile at all slow action but held and eventually went up .20 which is what my read wanted I just took two entries and exited both for negligible losses then it went up right after again, BEST AVOID THIS TRADE WAIT FOR FUTURE LARGER MOVE CHANCES

Of course PL down in 28s today, read today overall short, action a bit slow n choppy should have stayed out, -50 first short entry, +60 second, should have stopped, waited til toward close knew it could pop and it did right on me me lost -150, then got only 40 back, not really a high conviction trade afternoon for me should have stayed away preserved capital! Live learn improve

Work shower ate Read - short key level 31 market factors all choppy but PL very weak so ok on a short for me, two entries, first +30 second 70 so 100 which means bad risk reward based on this bc I was afraid it would pop through anytime which it did in between entries (good instinct), THEN IT DROPPED ALMOST .50 which i wanted a dollar move but based on action .40 would have been great, avoid this trade or wait til 3:30 when move occurred

Off today 2ND RED DAY READ, right, patiently waited mkt open then took an entry, then 7 more throughout morning, and one on PL. Wish I just took one great entry, and held it longer, this is my next level up stage. Instead of many tiny scalps! Much smarter! Live learn improve

Now I see why Tim talks and writes in CAPS 😂 off today, tried buying 31.50 multiple times wall of sellers built up -200. Then messed around to -600. Messed around ended down -300 had to log out, and -25 in FEES today alone! AGAIN SHORTING LEADING TO DEATH BY 1000 CUTS! CONTROLLABLE LARGE LOSS DAY! Right read to short executions just not on point enough, happy to improve on reads! live learn improve.

Accidentally hit button sending in an order causing -70, causing me to scalp around to get it back leading to -200, then eventual net +15, live n learn, careful, could used that energy to capitalize. Off today wanted another chance to short at 62 today, instead went early lower AGAIN and like they say focusing on smaller scalps prevents one from profiting off bigger moves, surely it came down lots, almost bought 58,

Wanted 62 short impatient it eventually got there -50 shorting 61.50 ish, then scalped around on it and SMCI to end up 36, my read was spot on 62 short came down to 60 live learn improve form rules stick to them. No big loss days, extra critical on any short entry, and make wins 2x losses (daily totals for me).
