Wednesday, May.03, 2023 – Trading Journal
9:30-9:45am: Started the day buying AMD Calls, GOOGL Calls and META Puts but closed GOOGL META flat and ride AMD for +70% gains and sold fast as momentum stalled.
9:45-10:00am: scalped JPM Calls and META Calls for small cash flow as again momentum stalled.
10:00-11:00am: scalped IWM META AMD QQQ and TSLA for small cash flow but slow action so a bit boring….
After 11:00am: got back into cash waiting for FED at 2pm.
At 1:00pm: saw an opportunity to short META on some news and bought META PUT 235 for +230% gains.
After 2pm: scalped SPY Calls and QQQ Puts for cash flow. It was hard but got bery nice cash flow.
End of Day emotions: It was a hard day with slow action most part of the day. Morning AMD scalp for +70% and META Put scalp +230% really gave me a boost on the day and altough not easy, the SPY QQQ trades after FED gave me some extra cash. That last QQQ PUT scalp was a beauty! Overall it was an hard day but with great cash flow, so I’m very happy with risk management of not holding the “bags” for too long. Need to keep my focus and repeat the process over and over again!
