Transit

Having Starbucks at Istanbul on transit and checking out last night’s market action I can see a few dummy trades that crapped out. Good day to not be trading ;-) On another less positive note I’m sick to the core, some nasty flu I caught on Tusday and which I think peaked right on my […]

Tuesday trades and a holiday

Boring, go-nowhere day of chop and low range. I traded AVNC and MGM and finished the day with zero P&L. 
I’m off on vacation from tomorrow going back home for a visit. Updates will be sporadic if at all and I might not get to trade anymore this month. May has been good though, need […]

Messy Thursday

I was busy in the morning and stupid in the afternoon. Plagued with mistakes and over-trading. Anyways, I traded GRB, JCP, RVBD, ACXM and DUSA. I scratched GRB and ACXM. The main mistake however was not letting DUSA the main winner run properly, I was more concerned about finishing the week nicely in the green […]
