|9:30am-10:30am| Started the day scalping SPY AAPL AMZN GOOGL but very slow action so I closed for very small PnL and wait for better setups.

|10:30am-11:30am| After 10:40am, scalped some QQQ Calls for +50% gains and at 11:30am scalped MSFT Calls for +290% gains on trading room and closed way too soon as calls went from 90cents into $13+.

|11:30am – 2:00pm| After 12pm, scalped some SPY for +50% gains and also AAPL Calls for +50% gains and done.

|End of Day resume| It was a slow start for about 1hr, but the scalps on SPY QQQ gave some great cash flow. At 11:30am, MSFT Calls were a rocket and altough I locked +300% gains, closed way too soon as gone for more than 1,000% gains on trading room so congrats to all longs. I’m very happy with my risk management, trading plan, focus and resilience. Need to keep my focus and repeat the process over and over again!
