    Final Recap- I did not think I traded well today, I did a lot of over trading, with 36 tickets, I'm still struggling with finding the patterns. I need to work on identifying my price targets and the patterns I am trading. I am also working on identifying stocks in play and taking the right share sizes. My biggest issues is also knowing risk reward and know when to stop myself out. Even, though I was positive today I do not feel like, I was positive.

Then Went short again, thinking that the Stock would  follow the VWAP however when the Stock was finally at VWAP, I lost Internet Connection and I was not able to Sell it at 1:20pm. I then decided to hold on to it until it goes back down but decided to sell when it reached the high of the Day( I now realized that was a mistake and I should have sold as soon as I got internet connection. An hour after I sold my positions, it dropped below the VWAP.
