Net PnL: +$21777.
Monster week. A real game changer. 5/5 profitable day, one bad day that didn't deserve to be profitable.
Also a few days that didn't have niche setups but managed to trade some big earners - so that's pretty cool.
After nailing a big week, will be very important to slow things down. Remind myself that consistency is the most important thing. I deliberately did really big size on SAEX on Friday. Probably won't do quite as much size on similar setups this week (still big size, but not enormous). Will do this purely because I need to tone it back and ensure I don't get carried away personally. E.G. I did 10,000 shares on SAEX, this week I will do equivalent of 4000 shares.
This week I really felt that refining my methodology helped at lot. It kept me on track on some of the good days, and had I implemented it correctly; it would have helped me substantially on the bad day.
Something I introduced this week was a "psychological check" at 10:30am. So I have set an alarm for 10:30, and every day I will rate myself psychologically at that time of day. This also coincides with the time of day that I need to adjust my trading style slightly - so it's a nice mix.
The idea is that this check will help me on those 1/10 days when I need to be pointed in the right direction, or need to take a break.
