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 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.

Sep 24, 2018 – Topstep Combine Day 3

Bit of a frustrating day which you can probably hear in my COB recap video below. Had some issues with Topstep’s data and platform that resulted in a red day, plus the following breakout news that cause some issues for several people. But good thing I did not take any live trades with my real money today. Maybe I will return to the live account today now that I have confirmed I can trade in two accounts at once with no real issues.
Axios report at 10:30 – Rosenstein resigning apparently causing strong selloff that I got stopped out on after getting stopped out on a scalp that could have hit target without all the erratic volatility. In the future need to be more careful when the price action is choppy like that.
Gave away all my profit on 2 back to back stop outs. All that followed by getting stopped out with how TSTrader’s new BE feature works.. Need to figure that out later. Check out the Recap video below for details.
