I must be a glutton for punishment because I went back in, made the same mistake... thought I saw a reversal, entered before my pre-planned entry and lost... again. Before this loss my all time profit was at -420 which was a strong sign to step away from the computer and "relax" but noooooooooooo couldn't leave good enough alone... luckily I don't feel too upset or disappointed even though I just lost $90 on a $450 account lol ... and oh look, a dif stock is triggering (bidu) hmmm enter or no...

Saw a lot of weakness in chinese names yesterday and noticed this was a large red candle at the top of an uptred with a gap below so I was hoping to see it fill that gap. The shitty thing is that I had an entry price marked at 149.48 with a first price target of 145.51... however I missed my entry price, got in at my target hoping to at least make a gain on the gap fill down to 139 and instead it bounced off that 145 and reversed back up. lesson 2 of 2 for my undisciplined gain yesterday.

I know this company is about to go bankrupt and yesterday was a huge red day at the top of an uptred so I thought it would fall today (bias) so I marked an entry at yesterdays low of 13.36. I got too anxious and when I say it making a move toward that entry price I thought I would just get in a little earlier. Bad choice. Was too anxious to trade, didn't follow my plan, and paid the price because of it. Lesson 1 of 2 for winging it yesterday and making a profit (karma)

Not really a strategy here, more of a gamble. Happy I got lucky but ultimately I had no idea what was going to happen. After seeing META gap up huge premarket I decided to take a short position with a tight stop... It went in my favor but I was scared and closed the position right away, luckily with a gain. No plan, no conviction, 100% hope. Not the way I want to move forward with my trading. For now, will be grateful for the win.

Saw NVDA moving to break yesterdays HOD so I entered a call position with a stop-loss at break even.... that was my undoing becuase it retraced back down and touched my entry price before SHOOTING straight up.. so that was kind of frustrating to watch but seeing how choppy this market action is who knows if I would have even gotten out with a profit as it dropped right back down again. Happy to be disciplined and follow rule #1, if nothing else, at least I am doing that right

I saw Meta turning around after a run up... when the 5 min candle made a new low I took a put position but once it touched the previous candles high I exited.. I could have been a little patient becuase it rejected at the high of day which was only a few cents above my stop, but because it wasn't a high conviction trade I wasn't comfortable holding it although it is now dropping... still don't feel too upset because the drop is very choppy and isn't falling strongly like I would hope for

When this reversed on my last trade to prev candles high I thought it might go a bit higher so I entered with a call option but it sunk down and retraced 50% of prev candle so I exited for a small loss.... overall very choppy morning on spy trading within a range and not going anywhere

Noticed a break of the low on the 15 minute candle... entered a put position but when I saw it retrace back to prev candle high I exited. Took this trade based upon the month, week, and day all being in a downtrend which gave me conviction to the short side

saw bbby break through support around 4.17, thought this might be the moment that it finally falls... the 5 min candles found resistance at that level but when they broke through and retraced up to 4.30 I cut my losses as I don't want to be caught in a squeeze up.. can always re enter

saw this turning around at the top by making lower lows... entered a put position but I saw it rise slightly which scared me out as I didn't want it to continue rising higher on me so I exited... 2 minutes later it dropped 1.5 dollars. I feel more upset about this $4 loss than I did the original $160 loss. Time to walk away from the computer and do something nice for myself today
