I started the day pretty well, plodding myself to a nice total by 16:00. Then some terrible luck hit me when my Internet went down for a good 15 seconds. Jumping over to my laptop I hoped it was my computer freezing but indeed it was the Internet. Its stupid me having no backup at the moment as these things happen now and again. But due to me possibly moving I'm waiting to install the second line.
When the Internet came back my position was terrible! The market took £1500 with the price already 6 ticks against me, and drifting like mad. I chased the damn thing up and people noticed and were just jumping in front of me knowing I'm in trouble. Damn you traders hehe! =p Long long after I finally get out for a nasty -251 all. Taking me down to a slight minus on the day. Frustrated but knowing I was trading well, I quickly tried to forget about the unfortunate incident and get on with it. I got my mind focused and went on a nice run to finish on a healthy total for the day. Recovering from losses that are your fault, or in this case not your fault are a massive part of trading successfully. Move on and keep positive :)
Very nice result for the day! Good work!

ReplyDeleteI am over in Ibiza and am just starting out at Trading. I was wondering what kind of set up do you have regarding screens, Sky TV, the platform you are using etc...
As soon as the summer season is over will have plenty of time on my hands to through myself in to it.
Keep up the good work
Darren
