Yesterday was an excellent display of maximizing gains to a certain extent. For me to get burned today on 3 separate plays is okay because I know I can pull out possible 1.5-2R+ from my gainers and to have 3 losers totaling about -2.6R is okay with me. At least it wasn't 1 trade, that's a total of less than -1R loser per trade. It's part of the game, key is winners need to be bigger than ANY of your losers!
Here they are and followed by the trades will be the P/L at the bottom. -2.61R
HOLY SHIT see while I was uploading my blog this happened! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED WHILE I was trading and its HORRIBLE!
See image below!
LOOK AT THAT! I just print screened it right now
-2.61R Loser
You said Two out of three trades did not provide a clean set up. I agree.
ReplyDeleteFnp gave a somewhat of a clean set up although you have to take into consideration the support area around .50's. So you probably averaged out your shares to close to .70 which only gives you a $30 gain on the first half if you sell at 0.50 support area. That's less than half an R.
This trade was good but some things weren't accounted for.
