SUNW and NGEN

Took two longs today and both have stopped me out for total of -2R loss. It’s been a while since I’ve had this happening. SUNW was a breaking of my plan again and NGEN simply didn’t work. My performance has suffered in the last couple of weeks. I feel I’ve been unable to muster the […]

MYOG

I took one trade today - long in MYOG which resulted in -1R. It seems like I’ve been treading water for the past week or so. Looking at my equity curve I can see that this has happened before, every time I’ve made some good progress and new high I’d spend several sessions in a […]

Friday

I was watching a few stocks play out on Friday but the environment seemed to lack much direction and the candidates I had weren’t top rate setups so I skipped them. I had CEPH, TWTC, PALM and IDIX as the main ones I was watching. 2 would have been winners, 1 didn’t trigger and the […]

The tortoise had been the pet of Robert Clive, the famous British military officer in colonial India around the middle of the 18th century, a local minister in […]

Bingo

Finally found a new place. After a few days of negotiations we have a deal and a contract will be signed. That’s obviously quite a relief as I was a bit worried and stressed about this whole thing. Hopefully my trading downtime would be limited to just a few days as I arrange to move […]

Trades and other stuff

Yesterday was a dull day again with a long in BMY which resulted in -1R. On top of that, the position was stopped out at around 3:50pm so the MOC sell order wasn’t auto-cancelled (it can’t be cancelled from 3:45 onwards) so it fired and got me into a short position. I managed to close […]

Back, for a while

I skipped Monday’s session as I was attendting to other matters. I took one trade today - VRX short and got stopped out for a -1R loss. The last couple of days look like a hesitation/consolidation days and not many setups have worked well.
On a personal note, I’m still out looking for a new place. […]
