What's up everyone? Alright, so finishing the morning here up 9470, $1.05 taking two trades right off the watch list. It really doesn't get a lot easier than this. This is I mean an awesome hot streak I Remember had that red day towards the end of March lost $11,000 that was right before the inner circle the week I was down in Florida made some money wasn't a huge week and then coming in the first week of April $32,000 another 10 grand today $42,000 on the month and it's April 9th. I've still got like three and a half weeks left.

This is amazing I'm just super pumped so you know this is what I know I need to do if I'm gonna break the million dollar mark this year I need to have fifty sixty thousand dollar months back to back to back to back and that might not be possible. This might be a great month I might end with fifty sixty, maybe even eighty thousand dollars. but then next month could be back to a twenty thousand dollar month. So you know I as much as I'd love to be able to count on fifty sixty thousand a month for the rest of the year, That's not the way it works.

there's the ebb and flow of the market. So I'm gonna just enjoy the hot streak right now and try to remind myself not to beat myself up too much on my next read day or when things do start to slow down. Alright, so anyways, we'll break down today's trades in today's midday market. recap.

What's up, everyone? All right? so we're gonna break down the traits from today: Another really impressive day of trading. I mean I'm I'm impressed I Really am here we are on the let's see one, two three for my fifth day of the month and I'm up Nine thousand, four hundred seventy one dollars and five cents in my main account with another four hundred and something dollars in my IRA account. So here you go. You can see my P&L there in my main account, the four hundred sixty six in the IRA another disappointing day in the IRA Just I can't seem to catch a break here, but we'll go over that in a second.

So here today is the sixth. my 61st day of 2018 and I'm gonna be up around 42,000 dollars on the month with a full three weeks left to trade. So it's like you know, this is the type of hot streak that you just love to have I suppose since the hot streak began I've got 42 48, 50, about fifty thousand dollars of profit. So my last red day were two back-to-back red days action.

I Lost fourteen thousand. So down fourteen thousand. That was a step back. and now fifty thousand is a step forward.

I Will have another step back whether it's tomorrow or a week from now. Hey, we'll have another step back. maybe leave four thousand, five thousand, whatever, and then start moving back up. So that's just the way it is.

Up and down, up and down. But as long as you're generally moving up and that's that's the right direction. So HEA R and T RPX were both straight off the watchlist. We were watching both of these pre markets, so it was no surprise that I was gonna trade these.

it was just a matter of what my entry points would be and I suppose if they would trigger a good entry, which there was a possibility that they wouldn't So I was watching this here as we came into the open. it was kind of TRP X was grinding up, which when we see this type of setup usually what I do is I buy it right out of the gate and just try to scalp. That's cool. but I don't usually get super super aggressive on size.

So I tried to take 7,500 shares at 7:22 average I filled 5767 shares so long 5767 shares at right around 723 and selling at 7:44 741 and 733. So right there, that was like a $1700 winner actually is close through a thousand bucks so a thousand dollars on that one and that was scalping right out of the gates. So we got this. Oops, we got the scalp here.

We're right out of the gates. It squeezed up from 720 all the way up to 769. I got back in at 7:44 patting at 7:44 in 746 and selling at 768 hi a day was 69 so not bad at all. There on that exit, selling is 68 and then hitting the bid and selling at 61 and then selling the rest at 41 and 44.

I then got back in for one last trade right here as it dropped down and then came back up over 17 or sorry over 717. I jumped in with 5,000 shares at like 7:15 and sold at 727 and 725. So there at that point I was up about 1800 bucks on the stock and then I took one last trade getting in at 729 and 730 right up here I hit 35 and then dropped and I stopped out at 7:26 and seven dollars and gave back to 750 bucks. So you know, finishing up a thousand dollars on that one.

Not bad. Not as much as I could have been. but again, if you don't push it you don't know. You know that could have been another winner and another winner and another winner.

So I keep kind of going with that until I have a loss and then at that point I usually slow down. alright. so TR Px3 trades no four trades and three winners. so pretty good there.

Then we had HEA our this one was on our watch list. It was a gapper. As you can see here it opened and it was halted on a circuit breaker because I think it dropped down 10% or more right at the open. So it was halted but I was watching it on resumption to jump in and you can see here this thing resumed and it went from 371 to 526 I saw it I knew as a recent reversal at a price target increase and so I jumped in at 4:30 4:30 to adding it five ten and five twenty five selling looks Oh looks like I tried to sell.

it's kind of a weird order there. Hmm I don't know. ninth out I don't think I had a full 10,000 shares but maybe I did so selling at 540 and then their remaining 91 shares at 521. Now this was a recent reverse split set up.

these often do this: these types of squeezes I tried to take it in my IRA as well I tried to take a trade on Ford that one got rejected so no trade. they're here got a partial fill of only. let's see at 408 and 440 of 629 shares. uh well hi again, how many times this happened? This is crazy so that should have been a $3,000 position and you know, like a $2,500 winner and instead it was only 600 shares.

only 466 bucks. So that's the luck of the draw I guess just again having trouble here. but whatever. it is what it is.

So this one you know it's just kind of funny the way the way it is these this sort of lag between the orders one at 26 and then a partial fill at 34. I mean I was in this account at 26 getting filled at 30 I mean literally between this time I filled between 26 and 34 I filled 5,000 shares right here and on this side I couldn't even fill 3,500 Give me a break. This is ridiculous. But anyways, it is what it is.

So another day that kind of missing the boat and I think this really goes to show you how having the right tools make such a difference. And yeah, I know my account numbers here I have 2-step verification on my login. so unless you also have my cell phone, the the account is locked. So but yeah, you know having the right tools makes a big difference.

This is my first time trading with Interactive Brokers and it hasn't been a very good experience for me, which has been disappointing, but they are one of the few brokers that offer settlement margin on an IRA and so for that reason I've been trading there and yeah, I'll trade there until Lightspeed off her settlement margin and then I'll move my money back to Lightspeed because this is just night and day. I mean and it's costing me money so that just cost me a couple thousand bucks today. I Had a five thousand dollar missed opportunity last week and it just keeps on happening. but that's alright I just want to get this account over 25,000 and then when light speed gives settlement margin which they're working on right now I'll be able to start trading I'll move this IRA over to light speed and Biela trade it there and in the meantime I'll just you know keep grinding away 400 dollars Profit: Green is good and it's not as much as I would have liked, but you know, just keep doing that.

I Think the biggest risk is that you miss all these opportunities and then when you do get that big loss, it feels like you know you're not getting the the benefit of having all those winners to make up for it. So the loss hurts that much more. but not much I can do about it. just kind of.

you know, do the best I can but everything seems just a little bit slower here and you can see just by comparison. No problem with the execution there, but on this side, even going through the same route going through bats bats here and this I sent through bats just I don't know what it is, but oh well. so small profit there. 466 bucks, nine thousand, four hundred, seventy one on the other side.

So I feel good about that and that puts me up almost $10,000 on the day, 42,000 on the month and let's just keep this momentum going. We'll get back at it first thing tomorrow morning and hopefully we'll see some more really nice opportunities. All right, So that's it for me. I'll see you guys back at it first thing tomorrow morning.
