Potentially Great Day....but emotions ruined it
I know what my problem is, yet for some reason i chose to live in insanity. Had 3 GREAT price reads but terrible exits and i got shakey.
BBY - I need to let trades workout and ignore my emotions. Great short that i blew
BIDU - Runner Chase, great entry, terrible exit
CMG - Great short but bailed early. Need to let trades work
GOOG - Lesson of the day to buy mini flags to previous breakout

Ended day red due to lack of discipline
1 real trade (misstraded) and 1 paper trade (afraid to chase real)
CMI - Great reasons to get long but allowed to get stopped out
FSLR - Strong stock in a gapdown market
SEE - Great lesson on shorting the bounce on gap downs

Great paper day, still dissconnect with live and paper
Was able to stay emotionless, calm, cool, and collect. Even though i paper chased i still had GREAT gains. Need to learn to pull trigger as i really felt like i was in sync with the market today and yesterday! The trades:
AAPL - Strong out the gates but didn't pull trigger
BIDU - Missed the long base and short at R
AMRS - Huge chase
TIVO - Great daily look but shaked out
SINA - How to use a stop
