Trading has definitely been more challenging than I expected it to be.  Before I considered day trading and came across Timothy Sykes I had already made some trades.  I knew nothing about charting, level two, how to find stocks etc. I just bought if I thought the price was good for the particular stock I was going to trade.  I made money and I also lost all the money I made and more due to not cutting losses quickly...  So I started studying as much as I can (I work part time and look after my toddler).  I have learnt so much, I am always watching Tim's videos etc.  I know a person should try different strategies to see what works best as each individual is different and here is what I have learnt about myself:

1. Due to not being able to trade premarket (I am based in London and I use TD advanced trading platform which does not offer this service) and see the premarket chart, I am too scared to trade as soon as the market opens as everything happens way too fast! I prefer waiting for the first pullback. 
2. I have come to realise I am an anxious trader and I always over analyse everything and miss the buying opportunity, it is extremely frustrating as majority of the time I would of made money had I put in a buy limit!
3. I feel more comfortable with reversals and dip buying.  What I have noticed when watching a stock, the majority of the time there are the same support levels over various periods so you can predict where the stock is going to dip to.  The problem I am having is due to the time difference and my obligations as a mother I can not sit in front of a computer screen all day waiting to see if the stock is going to dip to the major support level.  I am considering putting in buy limits in ahead of time in anticipation of the stock to bounce off the major support and if my order gets filled then put in a stop loss straight away incase it does not hold support.  I think that will also help not to over analyse a stock and miss the buying opportunity.
4. I did try paper trading however I did not like the paper trading platform I was using and to me it feels different when you are not using your own money.  I think it is best for me to trade small in the beginning, even if it just covers the trading fees so I gain more confidence and to see if my strategy works or try a different strategy that might suit my personality.
5. Whilst I am limited with free time, I think I should look more into swing trading instead of day trading. Can anybody recommend a good scanner for swing trades?  I like using TDs reversal scanner however it always pics up the trade on day 3 of the reversal instead of 1 or 2. 

I would appreciate it for any advice or suggest any good books on trading psychology.
