08:40 am: “Futures green to start the day with US midterm elections today and CPI numbers coming on Thursday, so expect still a volatile action with some indecision on what’s next, so manage risk wisely.
08:41 am: “Morning focus on NVDA and AMD gapping up to see if it holds morning print, squeezes higher to fill higher gap OR fades lower to fill this morning gap. SPY IWM QQQ on watch to see if hold green or some profit taking ahead key economical data coming.
Morning trades: I started the day fading AMD and SPY for some cash flow but as no follow through I took my gains and after 10am scalped longs on TSLA and IWM that gave me some nice cash flow. After 11am, I got chopped and didn’t make any money. After 1pm I took SPY short and those P380 were a great home run for more than double, which gave me the cash flow for the day.

Loss review: Between 11am and 1pm, I didn’t make much money and lost some money from morning, but I kept losses small as I cut fast, but I need to avoid that kind of choppy slow action.
Key Takeaways: Never, ever give up. Keep loyal to your process and trading plan, respect risk management and never give up.
Look Ahead: Today is midterm elections and we have CPI numbers on Thursday, so as I have been saying since Monday, expect volatile action as we are seeing today. Manage risk wisely and stay open minded.
