Trading Review: 04-25-2017


































Gross PnL: +$151.

Net PnL: +$90. $3 in borrows, which I didn't use but would have been a home run if I got entry (missed by a cent).

Disciplined day count: 18.

Weird day. Like yesterday I had the wrong bias on quite a few things which held me back quite a bit. However, today I got wicked out on a few which was a shame.
Overall pretty happy with how I re-entered into those trades though, waiting patiently for the re-entry. There were a couple of times I didn't nail the perfect entry, but it was acceptable.

I completely missed some monster trends today, but they were too "consistent" and my methodology doesn't deal very well with things that go in one direction the whole time.
I ended up having the right bias when they made their break, but then not getting the dips I wanted. Kind of funny that I actually ended up shorting them when they got extended.

STRP monster trade that missed by selling where I perhaps shouldn't have. But given the news risk, and that I wanted to lock in a profitable day I am happy. Besides, it serves me right for not selling into original push.

All-in-all, not quite happy with performance today; was on a grind lower then managed to bring it back. I definitely got unlucky in some instances; but it's not quite the trading I was doing last week. It may be worth focusing a little more on individual stocks - and how to avoid getting stopped out.
