Trading Review: 01-21-2016






Main Account: +306. Really solid day. Traded pretty much perfectly. Of particular note was adhering to rules regarding guidelines of how to use size.

Again, a lot of money left on the table today - plenty of moves... But sticking to goal. Of particular note was ALKS which I had a fair bit of conviction was going to have a bit downtrend day... And it did, from $40 to close at $34.

One other thing I'm pretty happy with is that I was trading UVXY on the short side, but then it went reg sho so I couldn't trade it on the short side anymore... So I switched to SVXY immediately and traded the position accordingly.

Back Account: +313. The GBSN position was actually meant to be a swing position. Was long 0.1670, looking for a multi-day move to at least 0.3000... But being up on the close, and it's slightly outside of my niche I decided to take profit at 0.1994. Closed in the after-hours at 0.24.
Overall, I'm happy enough with decision. Being slightly outside of my niche, if there was a really nice setup tomorrow I would have to sell GBSN at a potentially unfavourable price tomorrow to trade the ideal setup.
