Today was a typical day in trading. I was trading and something in my personal life got me out of the zone so to speak. Trading distracted is no way to trade, so better to walk away which is what I did after two trades.
These trades were in my smaller account on a different computer which is why the time setting is different. The first trade the price stalled on the downward move when it came bace to yesterdays high.
The trend was down, so short trades were preferred, so I waited for the reversal to fail. When it did , I rode it back down to the high of yesterday.’
Up $100 a contract today, which a good day in the mines.
The next trade was a similar one. there was a small inside bar around bar 68 that theee price stalled. I wanted to put a bracket around that price but didn’t and waited until it passed below the previous close attempting to ride it to the previous low.
On the DOM the trade petered out and I took another 5 ticks. After that, dealt with some family stuff.
