Sorry I didn't post this yesterday.
This has been a rough week for me. Mostly, I have been really busy with work, I have some big deadlines coming up. This does not mean that I have not been studying, it just means that I have been pretty unavailable during market hours. This has been a bummer for me as I would love to watch the action. I spent 3 weeks neglecting a lot of my work priorities, I don't think that model is sustainable, nor would it demonstrate integrity. This does not mean that I will never walk away from my job to be a trader. It means that when it is time, I will man up and let my bosses know I'm leaving and why. Maybe it is my mid-west work ethic, but I cannot let my job slip away just because I'm leaning trading.
This week I looked at market after-hours and created watchlists. I planned out a few trades, but they never came to be in the market. I was really happy that I did not buy before my signals. Impatience has been my biggest issue so far. I'm still learning a lot.
Today was a super busy day, my fiancee and I bought a couch and a rocking/swivel recliner. We are getting ready for that baby. We also went to the beach, went grocery shopping, worked on budgets, and more. There went the whole day. I'm glad we did all that though because now tomorrow I have no obligations. That means I will get hours to sit down with HTMM and I can re-analyze previous trades. I will also add a trade from a week ago I have still not entered (shame on me). I will be going through all of your blog posts tomorrow as well. Anything I can do to facilitate more learning!
Have a great rest of your weekend!
Good luck with the baby, they change your life for the better. Each day is better than the previous.
