Cleaning up my mess. Focusing on what matters until I'm back on track.

Brick by brick.

.

I know this isn't traditional, but it's how I'm going to do it for now. Life happened to me a couple times and I lost my routine a while ago. Weeks behind on my logging, still doing the majority of my personal journaling, making new spreadsheets, etc. But as far as profitly, up until a couple months ago, I was on it every day, but to be fair, I wasn't journaling to the extent that I do now. No matter, I want to improve.

Decided that it was time to change things up. Started playing with 1% size or less. Shooting at anything that moved. At the time, it felt chaotic, & still looks that way. It hurts my head to think about the actions I took over the course of this month, but the combination of that & Best Losers Win book, I am ready to get back on my feet and make meticulous decisions.

3% loss on a 25% move in 8 minutes because I couldn't handle the pain of low size fluctuation. So disappointed with the amount of opportunity cost lost over the last month 1/2. Blessed to recognize, though. As I said, I just have to apply these lessons moving forward.

Uncontrollable desperation. Glad I cut the size for this impulsive move. Getting wicked in and slammed in the same candle. My fault for having stop limit orders in such a chop fest.

I would size down on the one I let print a little. Like I said, drained. Zombie trading. Just grateful for Tim's teachings, a pretty rough couple of months, but they've taught me how to survive through moments like these.
