Did you figure this Out? Can’t tell you bowl many trades I have missed

@Dima how has your experience been with Centerpoint? Fees, fills, ECN, short availability etc. thanks!

Again today, example, made $76 on first trade which is 1.5% my account, thought of walking away, traded, well...ended -$120.... 'nuff said

I need to stop after hitting a certain "number" - I am not as yet mentally strong enough to overcome FOMO, revenge, boredom trading etc. 3 examples, I went live recently so relevant This week Day 1 - Made great money over $1000, ended at $700 but could have ended at 1000 This week Day 2 - Was up 230 than down to 0 than up to 280 - lots of commissions, should have stopped at net 200 vs the net 100 i made..... This week Day 3 (Today) - Up 120 decided to stop than figured was in wrong DAS instance and in Simulator not live - Revenge Trade it all back and some plus commissions.... So all 3 days, I should have stopped, no need to get into details, this are live examples....

Awesome!! I had a tough day today.

Knowing is half the battle. Some advice (please don't mind) Work on 1 thing it a time, first thing, setups and entries, make sure you are making the right entries and not chasing etc.., at this point do not worry about stops or exits, just make sure you are taking the correct entries and in retrospect if they work out in your review. Thank add Stops and exits and see what works for you. If you journal, you will see which trades are working for you, do only those trades and do nothing else. Than once you have confidence in your setup and exits, scale up to proper sizes. Happy Trading!!!

Awesome, well done, keep at it. Journaling is key!

@forkey @bluemarv @MichaelR are you guys coming?

@jcrossphd not sure if @Andrew Aziz is coming, I ill let him respond, but we can meet, we should meet regularly IMHO.

I have the same problem, I am going to set hard stops in Simm and let it play out and scale out based on technical scale while moving to Breakeven. Than leave 10% r run....

So I have been Paper-Trading since Jan 31, but only seriously in equities (Day-Trade) for about 3.5 months now. Based on my experience plus reading some excellent material, I reckon the following is the life-cycle for a successful Day Trader: Exploring what you like Adopting and Mastering a few key strategies and set-ups Being consistent in those setups - take $$$ regular from the market Looking for more of those setups Going Bigger in size Building more strategies Becoming your best I guess i am now skirting being consistent (although in Simm) - This is a long journey and everyone has their own curve. Would love to hear how others have managed this and where they are in their adventure! Thanks for looking.

Okay so even if the 3 of us meet that should be good, I am more will come. This is for July 17th as I am traveling next week for work.
