Crude Oil
My resistance level:$46.36
My support level:$45.78
Was Long 6 contracts @ $46.13
I manually trailed my stop
Stopped out in profit @ $46.56

Mindset: Last night: I wasn't mentally in a good place for trading last night kids were really busy ( focus wasn't there) which put me on edge. Got in on trade last night, was in profit about $1300 took my eyes off trade to tend to the kids, came back checked trade went against me about the same amount, (I should've screenshot the trade or wrote it down ) anyway I got out about about $800 or $1000 down. Traded myself out of the hole and made $1700 and some change this morning. Journaling has already started making me a better trader I have taken away from this situation is unless I plan on long term or swing Trading, I will not take my eyes off of a trade especially if I hadn't set my stop yet. Eyes on trade until I get out.

Mindset: Groggy morning, blurred vision from waking up suddenly, had problems gathering thoughts, with in 10 minutes started gathered composer. Realizing now since I'm fully awake could've stayed in trade ( could've been a lot looser with trailing my stop) or got back in an let the trade run. No complaints here really I Reaped great profits (Daily charts below)

Think Or Swim for watching Price, MT4 & Think Or Swim apps CTS T4 app for level 2 for watching price as well and also on the tablet app CTS T4 has a chart on it as well you just can't draw trendlines or levels on it . But I use MT4 for charting because I don't have a computer right now an the app allows you to draw and plot levels
Once I buy a new computer I will be using CTS T4 or Ninja trader8 I really like how you can set alerts or order limits on lines and indicators on Ninja trader8
