    11/7/19 feel good today after a great day yesterday and a nice relaxed morning. Trade 1: Went for a 5 min orb short on NVDA since it had increasing volume on the 1 min but got stopped out above VWAP. i carried on watching and saw the next 5 min candle engulfed the first, so went long on a pullback on the 1 min and turned out to be a great trade.. Trade 2: this wasnt really a setup just went on volume and a break of VWAP, stop loss above VWAP. made a keyboard mistake and bought more when i meant to partial which annoyed me. but still an ok trade and got out completely when volume suggested a reversal. Trade 3: ABCD on NVDA, saw it found support at 164ish so went long once i saw the volume come in. took some partials but got out when the price dropped at brake even. Trade 4: chased a reversal on ROKU. I was frustrated about the last trade i think and brian said something about roku so i jumped in... this is when i know i need to stop because i have fomo.. a good day but I think i get frustrated pretty quickly when things don't go my way and then make hasty decisions. - need to work on this

    Great setup. I didn't even notice the wedge until you drew it. And really good restraint not to revenge trade. I probably would have lost it.

    Thursday 7/11/2019 I had a well-being score of 7/10 this morning. My nerves were fine. Trading live but with half shares. I took one live trade today with AAPL. MU and AAPL were my primary focuses at the open again. Both stocks had an adequate premarket. As usual I was creating my mental opening scenarios. I had no bias this morning and thus had both long and short scenerios created for both stocks. AAPL was showing strength and I was waiting for the break of the 50MA-1min to go long. It tested that level a few times before finally breaking through and thus entered long. The target was the 204.33 daily level and my stop out was tight at the 203.6 (VWAP, 200MA and bottom of the candle). I tried taking my first partial at the 204 level and got a bad fill. From then on my partialing was as usual too abundant. The price struggled to break the 204.33 daily level for a couple of minutes than started to drop. I moved my stop to the 204 level and exited when it was breached. AAPL didn’t make too much of a move today. I also took one SIM trade on a 15min ORB and was quickly stopped out as usual. Score card for my live trade. What I did good today: Created a working entry scenario. How did I challenge myself today? Focused on one trade. I would glance at the others (and SPY) only to give insight to my current trade. What I did bad today: The usual: way too many partials. What can I do better tomorrow: Working on new partialing criteria will implement on Monday.

    09.Jul.19 Break Even - 2 Trades today. Watchlist: Another day with no so impressive watchlist, I had $TEVA, $NVDA, $ROKU, $SQ and $OSTK (LF) on the watchlist. I took $OSTK and $MU today Trade1: $OSTK. At the Open the price dropped, I was looking for Fallen Angel setup, it did happen, except I was late on the Entry. And I did not look at the spread before entering, slippage was bad too. On top of these 3 factors, I pressed the Hotkey twice, so I had double the share size. I wanted to get out immediately, but the price was moving in my direction, held on to it. Price dropped immediately and got stopped out. Trade 2: $MU. $MU was in action today. I noticied the hammer bouncing off 20MA on 1min, took long. At this time, I noticed the Pullback ORB on the 5min, so added to my position at the breakout. I partialed quickly till HOD, as it was forming Double Top. Good: Nice Entry on $MU. Once I recognized the 2nd setup, added to my position as it was dual confirmation. Improvement: Late Entry on $OSTK, not checking the spread, should have let it pass. Also, should have exited half size, after Hotkey mistake.
