Made some profit, but not happy. Kept exiting good moves early.

Need to work on the SL part. Tried wide SL (3 points) for a couple of trades, but the disadvantage of wide SL is that I cannot pile-up on a good move since the risk will become bigger.

I have reduced the number of entries, compared to a few days back. Happy with that part.

From tomorrow, i will not be posting trades, unless i switch to a slower trading style. Last couple of days, I have not been able to post live, when a good move begins since I am busy piling up. No point posting trades EOD.

Got greedy today....

Added funds to account today morning. Increased my base trade size, so now 1x = 5 lots.

I figured that if I am losing peanuts when losing, and winning coconuts while winning, then there is no reason not to go bigger. Maybe, I am just nuts...... I will watch for about a week, and will transfer the funds back, if it does not work out.

No plans of posting trades live today. Will mark up trades on charts later, if time permits.

What an exiting day!! Especially the climax part.

Liked it, though I ended up in the red, was able to claw some of my money back towards the end. Only regret is that I did not buy Puts in the last couple of minutes....

Will post the story in chart later.

Lousy day. I did not win in even a single move. Many times I was in profit, but gave it up due to late heavy adds.

In one case, profits dissappeared due to typo - due to typo I was simultaneously long 30 lots Put and 30 lots Call, though my system is a directional play.

Second consecutive loss - friday and today. it is not helping that i increased my position size from Friday.
