|9:30am-10:00am| Started the day buying AAPL Calls and was able to save the 1st trade but on 2nd AAPL calls took some losses as stock continued selling off so I took the losses and moved on. After that, scalped QQQ and SPY Puts for cash flow and got my money back on trading room
|After 10:00am| Scalped SPY QQQ several times and was able to get some cash flow it was too hard as no follow through on trades either up or down.
|End of Day resume| It was an very hard session as I took too many trades. I was able to add cash flow little by little and build up a nice cash flow day, but today action makes things hard to hold trades for longer. On slow choppy days, need to reduce the number of trades but overall 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!
