2/15/18 - Had a pretty bad day today. I was up $197 at one point and for some reason just kept trying to scalp more and more with bigger size. Traded 67k shares today which is more than triple what I normally trade, and was trading bigger sizes than normal. Largest red day so far. Lessons Learned : Don't Overtrade, quit trading 1 hour in and evaluate Don't get greedy, lock in profits and step away. Always be aware of the bigger picture of whats happening with a stock. Be careful with long positions on overextended stocks Scalp less and go into each trade with a plan, shoot for 10-30cent gains.
Had to switch from Suretrader to Lightspeed due to many instances of execution issues from Suretrader which resulted in losses. Loving Lightspeed so far, just have to get used to the new platform alongside eSignal.
@vellz just became a fully transparent trader today!
