11:00am-1:00pm: Scalped SPY bounce up from morning lows for nice cash flow.

11:44AM – SPY May 31 $417 Calls from 0.65 to 0.9 for 357$ PnL*

 

End of Day PnL = +3,516$ gains

 

End of Day emotions:  First 15min, were a bit erratic and momentum faded so I had to close positions earlier than expected. I managed well closing longs and flipping to shorts with 3 heavy scalps for great gains. Also the bounce up on SPY gave nice cash flow, so I’m very happy trading as I’m staying disciplined, respecting my risk management and following my trading plan. Need to keep my focus and repeat the process over and over again!
