Weekly report (MAR 1507--1553.5) (JUN 1501.5-1547.75)

Today it is actually a very good day for trading. But I screwed up big time and my emotions were up and down. Actually my account was not affected that much. It was all in my mind. So I adjusted positions a bit and call it a day. There are always opportunities in the market.

P&L for this week: $3788.

P&L in March so far:$4,245.88.

P&L YTD: $21399.

Trades on 2-28-13

I just realized that I haven't had such a loss for a long time. So I post it out to remind myself that I will never never do it again:-)
Thinking it over, actually I did better in February since there are less trading days in February than in Jan. So I feel better now.

February report(1,481.75 --- 1,530.00)

This week so far P&L is $750+$780+$780-$885+$250 =$1675 this week. I don't plan to trade tomorrow.
I thought I did better in Feb than in Jan. It looks like it is the same. Today's loss mainly comes from YM trade. I don't know what happened in the last 5 min before the closing. Anyway I will not touch YM for a while. I'm pissed.
P&L for FEB: $8770.
P&L YTD: 17,400.

Weekly in report(1495--1530)

The market is down on the weekly basis but ended with a strong note. As a result, I didn't add any short positions yesterday.

I set a new rule for myself: If I make $1000 in a month, I will deposit $1000 by the end of the month. If I lose $1000, I will withdraw $1000 from the account. So I've been depositing money into the account and my account is growing. But my trading size has not been changed.

P&L for the week: 1,647.17

P&L YTD: 15,737.29

Taking a break

from blogging. Let's see whether I can improve my trading performance. Good luck and bye for now.

2/7/13 Thursday (1494.5--1511)

It is a terrible day for me for sure. Check my YM trade, I was under water for more than $750 intra day. I was lucky to get out eventually. I need to think about my recent trades. I was so sick of myself and I turned off IB immediately after I sold the last YM.

I could have done a lot of better if I was not cocky. The market gave me a great lesson!

2/6/13 Wednesday (1499---1510.25)

The trading range was very small. It was so slow. Anyway, I tried my best and made $200.
