Trade week for Feb 6-10. Red week. Just couldn't get on the right side, and had some bad luck with GOOGL. The SPY trade could have been a nice winner had I been able to close it P/M, but it was an options trade, so I had to wait until open. By then it had bounced, and decay took all my profit away. Held until stop loss, because I think there's more downside coming, but it bounced too high. CCL was a day trade that I couldn't monitor because I had to leave work and take my daughter to school. The other 2 trades are still open and are profiting right now. I'm waiting for more downside to hit at least 50% ROI on those.

My trades for the week of Jan 30, 2023. I'm very happy with this week. I hit my 70% win percentage goal!

I closed my BITO trade at open with a +7% ROI at $14.48 per share. Not bad for a gratuitous mistake and netted me about $180. ToS PaperMoney trade

I was going for a DP whisper trade on this one. Hit the BA target, so I entered. Stop set to $0.10 loss, looking for a TGT of $0.30. It trades sideways all day. I decided to get rid of it at EOD at BE because I didn't want to hold it O/N due to the risk. I didn't realize that my sell order was for only 100 shares instead of the 300 that I bought. I only just noticed I still had an open position when I started my trade review this weekend. As of Friday's close BITO is at 14.19. I will sell at market open on Monday, and hopefully lock in that profit. Gratuitous mistake! Jan 17-Jan 23 2023. ToS PaperMoney Trade

I was watching this one for Steph's strategy, and it hit BB for the daily whisper. I didn't short it tho, since it was too early to go in. I noticed it was showing signs of Tim Sykes's morning panic dip buy strategy-increasing volume on a possible reversal candle. I waited for the next candle for confirmation, and it started to form a bullish engulfing candle. Went in without a real plan, which made me panic when it went up and then down a few cents, so I ended up panic selling at BE with a loss of broker fees. Need a plan to keep the emotions in check, even when I'm paper trading. Jan 13 2023, ToS PaperMoney Trade

DPI swing trade BA $11. I bought the stock on this one because I know from experience that BITO moves slowly, didn't want to worry about expiry dates, and the price is cheap enough to make a decent profit by buying shares. Stop loss set at -$0.10/ share. TGT set to $0.30-$0.50/ share. The next morning, it gapped down a little, but not enough to hit my stop. I had to set an automatic stop at 10am EST, because I had to leave work and get my daughter to school. The stop hit while I was on my errands. Jan 10-Jan 11 2023, ToS PaperMoney Trade

I used DPI on this trade. I had a position open in real money at the end of 2022. I decided to cut that trade for a small profit, so I could stick to my paper trading goals for 2023. BAC was still holding above the prints, so I swung it o/n. After watching Stef's trading journal workshop, I realized I was lucky to get what I did. Yesterday's close was not ideal for a 5* trade according to the candle on the daily. As I look now, I see the hammer candle at the top of a MD run, which is a reversal sign. I took what I thought was half profits at market open, but thought I bot 100 instead of 300, so I still had 250 shares left. When I realized this, the stock had hot almost $35, so I took out another 100 shares so I held only half my position. During the workshop I took out the rest after midday weakness, and after Stef had commented that it wasn't an ideal swing trade. Looks like it might hammer again at close. I will be reviewing the workshop from today, and take notes on exactly what I need to be tracking in this journal before I take my next trade. Jan 03-Jan 04 2023, ToS PaperMoney Trade
