Thursday

+10

Broke the the trend and I place an entry below the swing. I almost place 3 more shorts but I really didn't have any "rule" just gut because it was coming down so dramatically. I decided to stop trading after my 3rd hesitation.

Monday

+2

The first trade I got scared and pull out at +2. I was right in my prediction but the channel was a new formation so I doubted myself.
The second blue arrow is a prediction, not a trade. I saw the price bouncing at mid range and I though it could go up for 10 ticks, and it did.
Second trade following the same rule as the second blue arrow giving me 10 ticks out of the market.
Third trade, I was right in the direction but I was short for ONE tick! mistake I made is to let it run to my stop.
I should have pull it out positive or flat but I should move my stop once the trade is up. The problem I had in the past doing that is that I was kicked out +5 and then went to the direction I predicted so I could have had my 10 or 20 ticks but ended up with just five because of me moving the stop loss.

Friday

+10

After yesterday's bad day I decided to stop at +10 and then mark the chart with no trading.
The first and only trade was based on SR. Even though it didn't reached the top of the channel I saw previous prices reaching the middle on the channel so I went short when the price touched the middle range getting my 10 ticks of the day.
Second prediction was positive following the same rules as the trade before.
Third prediction was the same rules. So if I was trading I could have made 30 ticks today.
The market was easy to read and I was feeling confident.

Wednesday

+6

The first trade was following the support and resistance scheme. I got in for a long when I saw the price lingering on the bottom of the channel. There was a change of direction forming a different channel so I lost 10 ticks.
The second trade was SR again. I pulled out at +6 ticks because the price was oscillating too much for my comfort.
Third trade was beautiful. Touching the top of the channel and pummeling down leaving me with +10 tick.
I ended up with +6 a good number thinking about all the good choices I made today. The first one didn't work but it was a good trade. Not all trades will work but the one that didn't it wasn't based on a stupid decision and that makes it good.

Tuesday

+10

I traded the support and resistance. I saw the price touching the bottom of the channel (I removed the line on top to see it better) and I got 10 ticks out of the market. I didn't continued trading I thought 10 is enough after yesterday's shenanigans

Friday

+31

The first trade I saw compression. I missed the first entry and I went for the second at 101.72.
I pulled out at +11. I had my auto on +20 but I decided I will take less profit because of many trades reached 18 and went the opposite direction.
Second trade I trade support and resistance. I touched a bottom of a channel and after I candle confirmation I went long getting 10 ticks.
third trade, the same but it touched the top of the channel and I went short getting 10 ticks. The last one I was lucky, the entry was in the right price, one tick later and it could have been a loser one.
