My journal for scalping/day trading ES

Here is a list of my setups triggered today:

Scalping: 1
Day trading: 1

P/L: +$50 from scalping using 1 lot while missing a day trading setup. It's holiday today for US market and hence, I don't expect much action. I spent most of my time in vet hospital instead.

P/L: -$150. Today is one of those terrible days where I deviate from my trading plans and then put on random trades. This usually happens after I missed a big move or two.

January 22nd, 2020, 03:44 PM

P/L: +$262. I followed my trading plan today and everything is back to normal

January 23rd, 2020, 02:44 PM

P/L: +$100 by using 1 contract to trade. I accidentally closed this trade or else, it was a +$400 which I made from my own trading account. Starting tomorrow, I'll begin to trade more aggressively in LeeLoo's funded account for few highly reliable daytrading setups.

Since this is my journal, I'll keep it in the same format similar to my trading plan. Below is a list of reliable to highly reliable setups that I'm going to trade NEXT WEEK with real money in my own account and in LeeLoo's funded account. I've done enough back test and then forward testing for months to years (especially day trading setups) to the point where I've quite confident enough to trade more aggressively. In the meantime, entry, exit and stop loss techniques for each setup are in effect.

S1a (scalping setup for 1-3 pts): 0
S1b (scalping setup for 1-3 pts): 0
S1c (scalping setup for 1-3 pts): 0
S2 (day trading setup for 3-10 pts): 0
S3 (day trading setup for 3-10 pts): 0
S6 (day trading setup for 3-10 pts): 0
S8 (day trading setup for 3-10 pts): 0
W9 (day + swing trading setup for 5-20 pts): 0

P/L in total: +125. I got no setup to trade today. Two scalping trades were executed purely based on S&R level.

Have a great weekend
