Great Day !! What is your R Risk per trade ? $100 ?

2022-4-13 Hello All ! Just wanted to check in since I have not used this format for a while... I have been using TraderVue now for logging all of my trades... My full time job only allows me to trade the first 30 minutes of the open. With that I can only trade two to three days a week. I am still trading in Sim. Having some good days and some good trades, but overall net in the red... I am putting in more days and studying more...ancy to to live.... Looking for a Trading Buddy...please reach out if you would like to work together... -Tom N Today -0.3 R Trade of the Day: +1.55 R $AAL Support & Resistance I had a a level marked from the pre-market...stock broke and I went long...partialed out when it stalled... Portion stopped out at break-even. +1.55 R

Any thoughts on GT Racing Chairs ?

2020-12-28 <SIM> I owe myself some notes here...will finish later...ran out of time this AM...

2020-12-24 <SIM> TRADE 1 $MARA 1MIN ORB +1.2 R Went long on $MARA. Partial were 50/50/50/50/100 TRADE 2 $AAPL ABCD +0.1R $AAPL came back to VWAP for a bounce. I went long based on the 1 Min & 2 Min. Partialed 25% then stopped at break even. A little sick to my stomach because I could have either A. Not partialed/ Out at break even...or B. Could have made a re-entry based on the 5 Min for an ABCD and had a great trade. Thoughts ? AFTERTHOUGHTS Green Day. Another successful day with 1 Min ORB Happy to trade for more than just the first 15-30 minutes. Thinking to go live with just the 1Min ORB Strategy. Four more days until being able to trade again. Homework: 5 Min Orb, ABCD, Additional Webinar. Trade in Replay. Merry Christmas to All !

2020-12-23 <SIM> Choppy morning, sailors be warned... Passed on the One Min ORBs, probably a good sign... Only three stocks on the watchlist...another good sign... TRADE 1 $PLUG 5MIN ORB -1R Jumped in long for a 5 Min ORB...should have looked better at the 1 and 2 minute charts...close to the VWAP but not confirmations, in fact probably would talk you out of the trade... -1R. Stopped out in 21 seconds. TRADE 2 $PLTR 5 MIN ORB +1.15R Went short for 5 Min BO. Partialed with 25/25/50/50/100. Still questioning my partial strategy or lack there of... Will take the green trade ! AFTERTHOUGHTS +0.1R Green/BE day... No overtrading... Good watchlist... Need a day to get to goal of 2.0R Sure would like to trade more than 20 minutes 🙂

2020-12-21 <SIM> TRADE 1 $NIO 1MIN ORB -0.3R Stock broke through several levels...went long. Action died so I got out. TRADE 2 $NKE 1MIN ORB +0.84R Went long on a 1 MIN ORB. Good patience. Partials at levels. Partialed 50/50/50. Only 0.84R for the trade, but green trade green day. AFTERTHOUGHTS Great Job with watchlist. Nice call with $NKE, missed by BBT. Good application of strategy. GREEN DAY ! Still need to think about partial strategy, maybe first one should be 25% ?

2020-12-15 <SIM> Green day, but low Rs on two trades. TRADE 1 $AMD 1 MIN ORB, +0.17R Went long at 97.05. Two 25% partials then out at break even. Should have sold a chunk at the the 97.50 level. TRADE 2 $AMD ABCD +0.5R Trade 2 was also a 5 Min ORB, called out by Andrew so gave me a little more confidence to go in. Looks beautiful on the chart, but again a low R return. Partialed out 25%, 50%, 25%. My plan was to let the balance run. Got stopped out at break even though.... Including partial detail today... TRADE 1 TRADE 2 AFTERTHOUGHTS +0.67 R for the Day Two beautiful trades. Poor return. Bad Partials ?

2020-12-14 <SIM> Excited to trade today. Full day off from work so I can concentrate on trading as much as I want. Stopping out after hitting max loss in first 30 minutes. Frustrated. Note: I have better days when I come in overly cautious then "excited to trade". Lesson here. TRADE 1 $WKHS 1 MIN ORB, 1.5R I really thought this was an A+ ORB setup. Huge volume on the one minute busting through several levels. Stopped out in seven seconds for a 1.5R loss. Yes, I am using Kyle's hotkeys. Did I miss anything here ? @Andrew Aziz ? TRADE 2 $NIO 1 MIN ORB, +1.5R A little bit of a late entry, but a green trade ! TRADE 3 $NIO ABCD -0.15R Thought $NIO was setup for an ABCD pattern, didn't like the way it was moving so I bailed out. TRADE 4 $WKHS REVERSAL, Break Even Took $WKHS long at 9:45. 10% partial then break even. TRADE 5 $PLTR REVERSAL, -0.5R Took $PLTR long. Chickened out and took a 0.5R loss. If I held in this would have been the trade of the day...hmmmm.....one to steam over... TRADE 6 & 7 $PFE REVERSALS, -1.1R AND -1.1R = -2.2R Definitely looking at this stock with a long bias. (Lesson here) Trade 6, went long here at 9:59 with a little bit of an aggressive stop. Stopped out for a 1.1R loss sooner that I should have been. TRADE 7 Long again at 10:20, definitely should have waited for another confirmation candle on a different time chart. AFTERTHOUGHTS: -2.8R for the day. I thought trade 1 had great strategy. Trade 2 was a nice result. Trade 3 &4 I am ok with. Trade 5 would have been a big winner. Then really lost my day being biased on these last two trades.

2020-12-10 <SIM> DAS reset my SIM account to zero buying power. Took several trade attempts with error messages to figure it out. Lost day...

2020-12-9 SIM No journal entry yesterday...couldn't bare to post my 0-3 day with following no rules what so ever... Way better today. Woke up early. Good watchlist. Best part is after the morning show I paused the volume on Brian and Andrew for five minutes just to make sure I was focused on my rules and trading strategies. Only two trades but feeling good about both of them. I watched the One Minute ORB video the other day...what do you think of this trade... $XPEV -1R One Minute ORB Close to VWAP, stop was in the right place... Did I miss anything fundamental ? TRADE 2 $QS Reversal +0.69R A little aggressive, but looked extended on the 5 minute chart from the 9EMA. Probably a poor R:R decision, but positive ! Hindsight 20/20 I should have left something in... Hindsight 20/20/20 I should have continued to watch the stock...It is getting more beautiful as I am journaling....ugh...! Look at this current chart... Dang ! Journal or keep watching...need to journal...hmmm... Afterthoughts: Way better day. Need some strong goals for December: DISCIPLINE Run green

What's up everybody ? As you can tell I have been off the day trading for a bit... First, I took a new job at the end of August and have had my full focus on that... I thought I would get up early and trade a few mornings in October/November...and I have just had a rash of technical issues. I have been running DAS of my MacBook and although it seemed to work good for a while, the technical issues just finally got the best of me. So lately I have been researching PCs to buy. I have been on Macs for over 10 years and sworn everything off regarding PC. But, I finally pulled the trigger and got everything at least plugged in. The folks at DAS were helpful to me to switch my settings over. So now I have a real trading setup as opposed to my Mickey Mouse one. I think it will make a nice impact. The only thing left on my to do list is to setup the RGB keyboard back to highlight my hotkeys. With all that I logged in this morning thought I would catch the morning show and work on my DAS setup. I actually jumped (sloppily) into two trades and ended up +1R on an ABCD trade with $BA. Looking forward to getting back into it. The plan is to start in SIM and then jump back to small Rs in live trading. -Tom N TRADE 2 $BA ABCD +1R A little bit of a late entry, trying to find my hotkeys again 🙂 Happy to be back in action. Looking forward to turning this into a profitable venture...

2020-10-8 <SIM> Started the day with some strange technical difficulties. Internet froze for the first two minutes then was working fine... Missed any 1 Min ORBs... TRADE 1 $ROKU 5 MIN ORB -1.24 R Went long on $ROKU, pretty tight stop which should equal a good risk:reward. Stopped out 19 seconds later... Trade 2 $ROKU ABCD -0.1R Back long into $ROKU. A wider stop on this on, however it did not make the big move up that I was looking for. Out at break-even after almost 10 minutes. TRADE 3 $CCL Continuation / Support and Resistance +0.2R A beautiful downtrend on $CCL it broke the support level of the overnight low and I went short. Good Risk to Reward with target of yesterday's low. Nice room for this stock to move. Took a small partial and ended up stopping out at break-even. Should have held to run more ?? TRADE 4 $IBM 15 MIN ORB -1.1 R Long biased on $IBM. Certainly pulled the trigger following Andrew, of course his least favorite trade of the day. Stopped out in 22 seconds with my tight stop... Dang ! Tough day for me...not sure what to take out of it yet... Afterthoughts: -2.14 R Need some constructive ones here....

2020-10-7 <SIM> TRADE 1 $DKNG 2 MIN ORB +1.67R Went long on $DKNG. Was shooting for a target of $54. Partialed on the way up but held and got stopped out at break even. Will also post the partial numbers for feedback... Green trade. A little disappointed that it didn't go to my target. My P&L was showing this as a good trade while I was in it, but obviously didn't maximize it. Thinking if I should just make one trade per day and stop. Maybe one Live then the rest SIM... Will stay in SIM for a while... TRADE 2 & 3 $PENN Support & Resistance with VPA -1.04R First, this was not on my watchlist of my four stocks (four stocks max) I added it because Brian had mentioned it. The chart was super clean, looking back I still like the charts. One thing I did not give enough credit to was the spread, could be as high as ten cents. That is a lot for me... Look how pretty this chart is ! I saw it break through the overnight high and thought it would hold as support. A great argument for VPA. High volume bullish candles on all the charts. I was certain this would go to the next level of 70.68. Went long and stopped out in less then a minute on the wick. TRADE 3 $PENN Support & Resistance with VPA -1.04R Revenge Trade ?? Maybe, but I still liked the VPA and support level. Traded with conviction as I held it for 11 minutes. Afterthoughts. -0.43R Started green, gave it back. Stop after 1 ? Traded stock not in watchlist. Still a great chart. Maybe I just misread it. Took a revenge trade (#3). I had the opportunity to walk away at break-even several times. Get out it is not going your way immediately. A little frustrated to post a red day...looking to pull some constructive lessons from it.

Dude, thanks for the shout out ! I started a new job about a month ago, so I have not been trading every day. Will try to be back at the open tomorrow !
