Sorry for the late posting....Blogger was down and I could not log in to post.
Anyways, I'll keep this posting short and sweet.
I stuck to the same game plan as yesterday and it seems to be working well. By keeping my mind free and clear of any emotional ties, I was able to pull off a near repeat performance.
Unfortunately I had to leave a little early because our water heater in our house is not working and I had to go home to meet with a technician.
Had I stayed a little longer, perhaps I might have been able to break $1000 again. Time will tell, but for today, it was close, but no cigar.
Today I thought the markets traded in choppy fashion, but ultimately ended in a down day. Look at the ton of money I made on Citigroup! At one point, I had made close to $800 on Citigroup alone, but I put on a few small losing trades on it and ended up making only $680 on it.
I did miss a few good trades because I was too slow in reacting...could be because I felt dead tired today - didn't sleep too well because I felt disgusted...I hadn't taken a shower for almost two days (because of the water heater problem) and I feel really icky!
Good Trades
10:30AM - Citigroup (C) and the Futures were uptrending. Citigroup met some resistance at $50.10 and then the Futures ripped up. I went long 8000 shares and got out as follows: 4-cent winner (2000 shares), 5-cent winner (2000 shares), 6-cent winner (3000 shares), 7-cent winner (1000 shares) ($430 profit before fees)
