Came into work 15 minutes before the Open. Felt extremely unorganized and not ready. I didn't trade the Open very well. A matter of fact, had I paid more attention I would've made some easy money in several different names. Got to separate my personal and trading life. Traded well once I got my grip on the steering well but after a very upsetting phone call from my brother, I kind of just took it out on the market. Again, keep your personal life away from work. When you are at work, the trade that makes the most sense is one that is technically strong, contains fundamental news, and offers 5 units of upside per 1 unit of risk. I need to push myself..... more. Had a bunch of errands after the Close and didn't have time to upload the trades via charts. Sorry about that. The excuses will have to stop soon.

Keep up the hard work. With a little bit of luck this could lead to something very profitable for you. Remember luck is just preparation meeting opportunity. You have the preparation. Now we just need some opportunities.
