Oct 1, 2018 – Dry Paint

COB Recap

What a BORING day! A bit frustrating as well with the Nasdaq pretty much doing nothing. Took 3 trades in the Topstep account and ended up taking another step backwards in my journey to $2000 with a loss of $75 today. Took a small scalp, a break even, and a loss. However, didn’t take any trades in my live account so still at flat for the month with real money so at the end of the day I’m still winning. I can take as long as I want to reach $2000 in the Topstep account before proceeding to the next step in the combine. Hope we see some volatility tomorrow.

Sep 28, 2018 – Lock the Gains

I decided not to trade in the real account today to I achieved the goal of a green month. Closing the month up +$330, growing the live account about 20%. Definitely would have liked for it to be more but that’s a major improvement over last month where I lost over $2000! So, I am definitely not complaining. I improved greatly over the summer.

 

On another note, I did trade in the Topstep Combine account. Unfortunately, I picked the wrong day and time to trade with extreme aggression in that account, taking a huge step backwards before having to exercise my three strikes rule. I made a couple of mistakes, so I’m more to blame than the market even though it definitely wasn’t the easiest market to trade.

Sep 27, 2018 – Runaway Bulls

So, I ended up missing the strong bull move out the gate. The 5 min wick threw me off, showing indecision and I decided to wait for some pullback that I never got. After watching the paint dry for a while, strategy showed an entry that I took for a small scalp. Could have held it longer but by the design of my strategy, would have only gained an extra $5 so no big deal getting out when I did. Somewhat of a frustrating day, but better than losing money.
