Update for 20101015

Ugggggh. Times like these when this job isn't very fun at all. No trades today (a few close setups but nothing fit exactly like I like it). Half-way through October, only thing for certain is that I'll take more trades as they show up!

Lady (un)luck isn't letting up! More losses, and I missed a winner (away from my desk). Just watched an almost-valid trade setup hit what would have been profit, so that stings a little too, but I just have to remember all of the almost-valid trade setups that I've seen throughout live trading and back testing that were just flat out awful.

Still have half the month to go and two more quarters to dig myself out of this hole!

Update for 20101012

I just got back from vacation (which was excellent), and I have been getting KILLED since October started! Only 1 winner with 10 losses so far, and I missed the winner and 3 of the losers (vacation and away from the screen). It's pretty depressing, but I'm obviously still in the game and have the future to look forward to.
