Trades & Notes
I had a late night. Didn’t get to the screens until 9:30 CST and was groggy/unprepared, so I decided to make this a study and watch day instead of trading. It was very useful in that sense. I saw 2 longs from tests of VWAP at 4495 and 4501, but I wasn’t clear-headed enough to see the confluence that strengthened both of those trades, which was just confirmation that my head wasn’t clear enough to trade.
I signed up for a Convergent Trading membership yesterday, so I spent some time getting that set up and I attended a review of today’s session, where the leaders confirmed the 2 longs I saw were strong trades and pointed out the confluence. So, all in all I’m feeling good today although I feel a little frustrated over not setting aside the time to trade live.
