Thanks for the question. Right now I'm risking $200/contract which is automatically set when I enter the trade. Given how small the account and my way of trading reversal setups I try to move the...

Weekend Update

Quick recap since I didn't have time Friday to post in the journal. Friday was a good day for me although it could've been better if I had just stayed the course late in the day. I was up over...

That's what I get for boasting about a 2x on Wednesday as I took two full loss positions yday which brought me back to reality. Trades seemed fine but got jolted on some headline news which has been...

A nice recovery by the bulls yesterday and as noted by the prior post I was able to double up the account after taking a reversal trade from S1 shortly after the 9:30 AM open. The move got us back...

I'm expecting a volatile session today as we continue the political story that really picked up steam yesterday. Bears were able to mark a new low for the move overnight but we'll have to see if...
