So as you can see below, the lesson I learned yesterday, as well as everything I have learned thus far has really really helped my trading out the first week of 2016! I made over 11 Grand in my paper trading account today, and this was after my platform wouldn't execute a trade and I had to close it out and reopen it. Having a tight stop on both trades today made a world of difference for me! One of the trades was nearly identical to the one I lost money on yesterday, but because I had a tight stop loss and got a great execution it was a very profitable trade rather than a loser like yesterday's. A slight adjustment can be the difference between a loser or a winner. I have made money on four out of six trades this week if you count my paper trades of today. This is all very exciting, but I must continue to refine what i'm doing and get better at it to remaine disciplined every day! I did the math and it would have been $384 including the loss I took on EARS and comissions, which would of been my best day trading ever, had I made these trades in my live account. Technically I tried to get into INVT at 2.30 so who knows what would have truly happened in my live account. I have to give credit to GOD for helping me along the way and answering my prayers through out this process. Also I want to thank Tim for what he does. He is a phenomenal teacher, and I'm glad that he is the mentor that I found first before any other!!

I use Think or Swim to paper trade and I like it because you can get real time data
