September 18

CL +.47
Here are my stats since the first of August working on mock acid test. Numbers are legit and inline with what Ed is teaching.
My trades today were good and easy, little to no heat. Trade #4 was a winner if I stayed in trade longer. Really had no reasons to get out but at the moment it felt like the right thing to do. So I guess that's ok too.

September 8th

CL -.32
Terrible day. One trade one big loser. -32 ticks. Set the trade and left the computer. Again big no no and I haven't learned my lesson. September has been a very rough month for me.

Breakeven day. Kinda disappointed in my trading the last two days. Need to be mentally sharp and in the game. Cant seem to find the groove with the market.

September 4th

CL +.08
This is classic not paying attention and not getting ready to trade for the day. Please look at the chart. Notice the blue arrows where I got out of the trade. I had my ATM strategy set to scalp instead of runner which I usually start the day with. I got in on a pull back and immediately hit my first target. Unfortunately, I did not have my ATM set right because in one second price moved 20 ticks right away in my favor. Notice on my chart where it shows target hit. Down at the bottom of the move. I didn't get anything but the four ticks. That put me in a bad mood so I sat on the sidelines for the rest of the trading action which was very good. Lots of runner action. Still was positive for the day...

September 3rd

No trades to report. Looked at the market for awhile but didn't see anything of interest. Plus all markets didn't move there for awhile. So I went golfing.

10 tick winner for the day but blew the last trade. Got out early for no reason again, the runner is still running as I write this
