What a bad trading day for me. I didn't have my head in the game and made some really stupid mistakes. Bad entry, failed to use a hard stop ( that cost me $2,775 on one trade). I need to focus more on my trading times and entry/exits.

Since the markets were closed on Monday I decided to practice on reading charts and trading the charts. I had 4 small losses in USDPLN on the 1min chart and 5min chart, about $15 loss total. ToS didn't save the entry/exit prices from Monday so I wasn't able to log them. I was able to log my win in USDZAR that was traded on the 30min chart. I held the position most of the day and into early Tue before selling it. I won't ever trade real money in forex, I don't care for it. No catalysts, margin, too many big players, too risky. But the chart trading was a decent educational tool.

I'm planning on updating my blog a bit, part of that was purchasing a domain to make it easier to find... My blog address is now PennyFarmer.com

Shorting PRGN over the weekend, yes a bit risky with the holiday weekend, but since this cracked the $1 level this week I think it will continue dropping.
