Quick Update

I recently had the chance to go live and click my sell order in, surprise surprise there is not enough in my account to trade one contract. My account is well over the 2k minimum per contract...so who knows.

The initial trade would have won.

I was able to watch the market from home for once finally that day. I took 14 trades and won 14 trades. 1 or 2 of the trades were with the stop moved, the rest were clear winners.

The next day I had a bit of time and went 2 for 2.

I am reworking my price action systems. It is incredibly time consuming. I am moving back to this system because that partially helped me go for the 14/14 day.

Summer is ending, but I still plan on putting less time into updating the blog for now.

Quick Update: Still Alive

Work has been picking up and I have not had much decent screen time.
The only way I will ever get out of work is trading.
I have begun tracking one of my signals, only one. I will be taking a signal live once it proves itself to me. To avoid impulse trading I will trading only 1-2 signals and they must be exact.

So far during 7am to close the signal over 10 days has delivered just over $1000 after fees and losses. Clearly this would work assuming I had the time to take all the signals. The time issue alone may kill the ability to be profitable part time.

So - tracking signals now and waiting to go live, hopefully this year.
