Monday Oct 2, 2023 Trading the Emini S&P: 1 Hour w/RDT +23.5 Points ($1093.80 after Commissions)

Oct 03, 2023

Hey guys!  I know it has been forever since I have put out new content with me trading but if I’m being brutally honest—time is limited in order to edit these things.  Today, I happened to have some free time as a few of my meetings were cancelled.  SO, I got to spend an hour with you AND have the time to edit if for The Vault and YouTube!  I also know this is yesterday’s trades, but better late than never!  Also, I know there were some sound issues—I had all kinds of issues but it seems an update on my computer has fixed it.

So, I started out a little strong—first trade, 16 points BUT the next trade I took was a little shifty and when it took my stop, it took it for an entire point extra.  So, my normal 10 point stop out, became 11. 

But that’s okay, I wasn’t done!  I did take an entry and then added 4 more.  I was keeping a tight stop because of the way things had moved back so quickly, so I didn’t take too much off of those per contract, but, hey—I’ll take what I can get!

I did spend the next 20 minutes looking for something in the office with my kiddo but was able to catch one more short for a small profit.  That helped me wrap up my day with +23.5 points.  After commissions, that was a total of $1093.80 and I knew it was time to shut it down. 

Because part of being responsible isn’t just making the right decisions when IN the market—but also making the right decisions to get OUT of the market.  I knew my mind wasn’t fully in it, so I closed it out and called it a day. 

I did have some issues with some glitch that NT is having and struggled to write the text on the chart, but luckily, there was a fix for it and I was able to mark all the trades on the chart.  If you’re having an issue with that as well, there’s a little explanation on how to make it work until the proper fix comes through.

Well my friends, it was great to spend some time with you and with the market today!  Don’t forget that we only have a little more time before we stop accepting applications for the RDT 2023 Scholarship, so get your applications in sooner rather than later.  Much love good peeps and we’ll catch up again soon!

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment.

CFTC Rules 4.41 - Hypothetical or Simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity.
