End of Day emotions: First 30min shorts gave great cash flow to start the day/week, and then playing the oversold bounce add even more cash flow. Traders, Trade and I’m very happy with today playing downside, locking gains near lows and flipping long from lows for more gains. I’m also very happy with my risk management. Need to keep my focus and repeat the process over and over again!
