Hey Noah, thank you for your comment! So with my "need to make money", that's when I started trading ES because I wanted to make back up for the...
With today's defeat, I am heavily considering doing one of the combines. My "need to make money" is hindering me psychologically. If I make a few...
Day 16: Complete disaster- overtraded my ass. Revenge traded. Absolutely deserve this loss. I was anticipating a big day today due to most of my...
Day 15: ES was chopping pre-market at key price zone. NQ was as well. NQ cracked the level at the open and tanked while ES went up...hence I was...
Day 14: Was anticipating a rally in the morning, hence I was playing around with 1 MES at the open- which all failed. I switched to MNQ, caught...
Day 13: Should have anticipated the open drive day- was apprehesenive on the open due to the auction - [ATTACH]
Before 2021, my work schedule was from 12:30pm to 9:00pmPT (I took a big paycut to be able to daytrade during the day). But then when this year...
Day 11: Anticipated the up move correctly, scaled out at some decent levels within the limited amout of time I have. Wish I held on to the last...

Day 8: Yesterday I broke the rules above- mainly due to being a Sunday afternoon(Not having my usual early morning type of focused trading) and...
Being mad at myself for my performance this week:I will implement a new rule going forward. If I break my discipline, I am breaking the process of...
Day 7: Was doing decent on micros and then I got the "I want to make lots of money" syndrome. I wanted to short ES on the pullback after it made a...
What do you mean exactly? I am not trading both at the same time. I traded ES for the size on a separate trade different from the micro trade....
Day 5: Was up decent amount of ticks with micros , than gave it all away on 1 ES trade. Lesson learned today: Don't get too honed in on the 1min...
Chop depends on the timeframe you trade. I was trading the 5+1 min, anticipating a breakout on the upside. Instead I got caught in a few hours...
Thank you Noah, I was able to make some money back today in the morning but still down (-150) for the day. In my trading plan, I have in writing...
