Monthly results Month: Febuary Trades: 14 Wins: 7 Losses: 7 Monthly Total: + $16.30 Yearly Total: +$16.30 What Worked: FGD 2 of 3 worked, 3DS 2 of 3 worked, SGB worg had 5 attempts, with 3 winners and 2 losers, 1 being biggest loser of month and year and was a trade I that really costs me massive slippage. What failed: Random setups I am still playing and did 2x or really 4x as 2 I named weren’t really what I named them, if I cut these out and concentrate on actual patterns it would feel a better month. Best trade: XWEL +15%, pattern 3DS, entered after small loss earlier and executed well and seen selling off. Worst trade: KNRX -16% SGB Worg, basically sl shot through so instead of 2% risk it was slippage and 16%, but regardless the choice when I entered was poor and should of waited for the stock to prove itself and that would of kept me out of danger. What work have I done this month: Still reading every night before bed, read Technical analysis of stock trends, reading price charts bar by bar, Studies in tape reading and the compound affect and listening to podcast of Rizdom every morning and night too and from work, I attend every PMP with Bohen as well as jack, Sykes and Ellis webbys, all midnight madnesses, and extra ones from Bohen, still plotting every 3DS, FGDB I am in or miss and track the data real time and then study, print and file the chart after to see where I can enter and exit and what to look for, every day is entered in my journal, What have I learnt: Feb was a tough month, markets seemed lighter on volume and not a lot of follow throughs, missed a few again that I was watching and hesitated on, always access these after and still cant decide if its lack of preparation, not reading the price action correctly, wounded from past fails clouding my judgement or just plain chicken, this is defo something I need to work on and am jotting down my feelings when I have or haven’t take a trade, the best trades do simply seem to work and the bad ones, I am tending to know with seconds or a couple of minutes, could I cut sooner maybe, not enough data as to early into this journey, but certainly something to be mindful of, but while I am learning what works and how and when to enter, I will take losses and I’m fine with that as long as I have entered for a pattern and not random. What do I need to work hard on: Entering FGD and 3DS that gap up, still struggling to enter these, I’m ok if I can catch them going red/green, but if they gap up I’m scared they have gone too far early and will fail, so I need more data on these, RXT was perfect example this week, it gapped up pm and open over 25%, before falling at open and then consolidated for 1 hr but I didn’t enter, went over this chart indepth working out reasons why I didn’t enter and its this, I really need to work on, a lot of my tickets on my watchlists are running, so a FGDB or 3DS or SGD worg does not come out of the blue now, it is already on my watchlist and often I have a plan ready, but either I missed the entry or my plan was wrong and I was trying to enter to low, but considering how many runners I actually did see real time, is a an improvement. Overall Feeling on the month: Been a tough month and not many trades, 14 is low for me, but even so I only feel I probably chickened out on say 10 trades max and 2 trades, should of never have been taken and were taken on a baron week, where if there had been actual trades worth taken, I would of given these 2 a second glance I feel and both were 2 worst losses, so says a lot, managed to make the month green, just. Felt like good parts to the month where displine was generally very good baring 2 stupid lapses which came on the same day within minutes of each other, I know its only 2 trades, but take them 2 away and I think this would have been a decent month again, but these loses are valuable lessons to learn not to repeat. Goal for next month: Keep tracking FGD, 3DS as I really think I can get these to work with me, work in progress on finding an entry on gapups on these both, will still attempt the SGD worg where I see fit, as these are now working out to give me and understanding while watching for a possible 3DS later and the FGDB even later, so I am seeing and jotting down levels,
