Today was a bit of a bust. Spent way too long trading this morning. I was up $700 before the market even officially opened. Then I got caught in a halt down so fast that I couldn't even sell (can't use market orders in premarket, so you're stuck with limit orders, and I just couldn't … Continue reading 2022-04-27 — Bust

Happy Tuesday, folkses. 😊 Ready for the recap? 🙃 Wild trading morning today. I almost retired from trading altogether today. I started taking some trades premarket because I caught a stock as it was starting to break out, and so I was in the green early before the normal trading day opened. So it was … Continue reading 2022-04-26 — Happy 800th! 🥳

Hola, wonderful folkses. 😊 Green day in the morning trade session. It was a wild one, but in the end, I managed to be up $528. Traded mostly on just one stock that went from $7.77 to $20 just today. I, of course, didn't catch anywhere near that much of the swing. overall, I got … Continue reading 2022-04-25 — Uptick

Hola, world. 🙂 Happy end of weekend/beginning of another week! Let's see... I went to bed a bit earlier last night, which meant I got up a bit earlier as well, so that was good. The early morning is a bit of a blur. I renewed the ad I had out on Indeed.com, working toward … Continue reading 2022-04-24 — Only Slightly Disobedient

Coming up on midnight tonight, and I'm tired--eyes are tired, and a yawn just came and went. I'm gonna crash here shortly, but can't do that until I write here. I slept in today, sleeping until about 9ish. I still didn't get that much sleep because I didn't even go to bed until about 3 … Continue reading 2022-04-23 — Warranty Rescue

Biggest losing day trading wise I've had in my short career. Almost $4k down today. Why? Because of self discipline issues. I'm going to give it one more day. If I have one more day where I can't discipline myself, then I'm going to let go of trading indefinitely. No sense trying to force it … Continue reading 2022-04-22 — Weekend to Ponder

Rough trading day. Lost a good bit trading stuff I shouldn't have. Frustrated I can't seem to just follow my own rules of good sense. Gonna give myself a little longer, but if I can't discipline myself, then... I guess we'll see me retire from the trading experiment. I guess if there's any consolation, today … Continue reading 2022-04-21 — It’s An Entry

Today's title was in reference to my day's stock trading experience. Oof. 😬 I started the day up like $12 in premarket trading. Then shortly after the opening of the normal day trading session, a stock surged just the way I want them to. Over the course of the next very little while, I found … Continue reading 2022-04-20 — Walk Away, Stephen. Walk Away.

Hola, folkses. 😊 My morning trading session was pretty nutty. Ups and downs and ups and downs. I started out down about... $50? I don't remember for sure. Then I got up about $230, I think. Then I lost just about all of that. Then I went into the green about $350. I almost walked … Continue reading 2022-04-19 — Near Misses

Hello, my lovelies! 🙂 Things have gone mostly well today, so that helps in fighting the heavy, hard stuff I've been drowning in. Started off with a good morning trading stocks--made $819. I'm about $640 away from being back to break even on this grand stock market experiment. I was actually up more than $819 … Continue reading 2022-04-18 — Positives
