Tim said there'd be days like this. So, I'm on Schwab. Yesterday we all ended the day thinking that yesterday had exciting trades from the pre-market through the day and planned to get up early and trade in the pre-market. But Schwab doesn't open until 7:00am for their pre-market trading. Anyway, I got in there and had already missed the start of some good trades. I tried to chase several trades. I took a couple of wins, some losses that were big for me, and several sideways trades that were slight plus and minuses. I'm posting all of my trades in part to drive home the lessons they have taught me. Number one I did well yesterday - sell losses quickly. I went and got some tea this morning and had one stock go very low in both accounts I trade in while I stepped out of the room. I guess this morning I didn't adapt to what the market was telling me. I tried to force the trades. Now I am hearing Tim Bohen's voice saying don't trade until 9:45 with clear signals from Oracle. And I hear Tim Sykes in the last twelve seconds of the middle DVD of Spikability saying,"Think about your risk of loss before you think about your potential for profits."
