i liked the 11:15 doji. i love the 1:15 doji if i wasn't asleep. doesn't look like i'll get much sleep tonight either. for some reason i thought tonight was thursday. i told my buddy i would meet him for pool no problem. around 8pm, i realized it was only thursday. whoops!

i would love to know how these traders knew so quickly that an oil rig blew up. maybe this is a when a news service would come in handy. possibly i could have hung on a few more minutes. first i went long, and then went short. it was a powerful move down.

just a nice chart.

nice chart as well. timed it wrong. that is why i need to keep the stop out stocks on the radar. its okay to miss it once or twice. just need to hit it hard when you get your second chance.

boom

i would say another succesful day. its probably been a good week. i don't keep stats so i don't know how much up or down. maybe i will start doing that, starting with today. i was up around 150-180, no quite sure how the day ended after the stop out in JWN. the only problem with paper trading is that you don't build up that true confidence inside yourself. the same confidence that comes from making "real" money. i may have been positive every day this week, but since its paper i don't recall. if it was on real money, i think i would know for sure.

catch you all in the morning, or afternoon. which ever it is by the time i arise.

  1. Good job Josh!

    I wonder if it would help your confidence if you were to keep track of all your paper wins. It looks to me as if you are overcoming your fears. Keep up the good work.
