I daytrade the market open long since April 2020. I plan to trade until the trading capital 5000 dollars is gone. Hopefully I get consistently profitable before that happens. I mostly paper traded until dec 2022 and now the account is down to 2253 dollars (courtage, fees and taxes included). Courtage, fees and taxes April 2020 to January 2025 1896d. 23 trades in January. The account is up 2 dollars in January. Courtage in January 53 dollars. Courtage in January 53d. Biggest win ever 301d. Biggest loss ever 88d. Percent target trades in Jan 100, mean 2024 90. Winning percent in Jan 65, mean 2024 48. In the trading diary I find the following mistakes: Unintentional double entry 4 times. Didn't respect stop-loss 3 times, held and hoped and exited 24,5c/82,5c/11,25c below stop-loss. No written plan once.
