Net PnL: -$460.10.
Man... What couldn't have gone wrong on first official day back. Very rusty. Opportunity was there; so big under-performance.
What went wrong?
- Accidentally went over max size on an order that went through the moment I decided to market it. Didn't reduce size and take a paper-cut (on the reduction).
- Strayed away from methodology of not trend trading until after 10:30.
- After narrowly missing entry on first wash on GEVO chased entry. Side note: Although I'm happier with the second trade on GEVO, wasn't worth throwing two large trades at it.
- Got nasty slippage on FWP (which was on the increased size); which literally ended with me getting stopped at the high. This is just one of those things though, only the sizing; and holding off on premature entry was within my control.
Other thoughts:
- Haven't quite worked out my daily routine yet because often times I will be ubering right up until 2:30 (when I need to start preparing). Will see how this week goes to think this through.
