Trading Journal
Futures red to start the week following Chinese news and OIL also down. We have Mr. Powell and Job report this week, so manage risk wisely.
Morning focus on gapping down stocks to see if hold the morning print and bounce to fill the gap OR make lower lows before a bounce. AAPL, AMD, NVDA some stocks to watch on morning weakness.
Morning trades
AMZN got calls at 9:30am on positive news from Black Friday and that gave me the cash flow for the day
IWM tried to scalp longs and shorts but got chopped and closed the trades
TSLA tried to fade it but too strong, so closed it avoiding bigger loss
SPY bought some calls after 11am for the bounce and made some money but on FED speakers, stop hit and done.

Loss review: I got chopped on TSLA trying to fade as market was weak, so was expecting some profit taking, but stock too strong, so did well closing the trade and step aside
Key Takeaways: Weeks with FED speakers can be tough with both longs and shorts getting stopped, so traders should do less and wait for a more clear view after FED speakers
