Small Cap Stocks Day Trading Journey ($25,000 Challenge)

Both trades could have been killers if we just held but I picked the two slower movers while $APTO was flying. Tomorrow we get another shot.

Moin! Let's get some trading in.

$EMAN 14m MC and 44m Float - semiconductor equipment and materials - gap up 50% with mean pullback, under our dollar range but this us up on a $4.3m US army order (night vision goggles) will be good fun to watch

$TCCO 3.5m MC and 1.47m Float communication equipment company gapping up 175% near highs right now , possibly over extended), very strong Q4 earnings.

$CLVS 585m MC and 53m Float biotech that's been rallying since early nov when it had solid earnings. 3 days of pull back and 2 days of breakdown bounce. Approaching former support now, should reverse. Could be some great support buys today

$LMPX 59m MC and 4m Float - auto dealership gapping up 18%, today will be it's 4th trading day since IPO, could have been an amazing trade yesterday if we just held but that's not our strategy (at least for this challenge)

And the adventure continues. Today was a total $0 flat day which I think is actually a win because we got free education. Let's keep learning and managing our risk. It's not about getting to our $25k overnight but living to trade another day and being consistent. See ya guys tomorrow!

(1) 8AM would have been perfect, just needed to wait a bit longer
(2) Something not holding its highs may not be as strong of a dip buy
(3) Monday's fresh from the weekend, be extra careful.

Days like today happen and you can only try to learn from them as much as possible.

TWO 30% potential trades today happened right at the same time. $INFX and $YAYO We could only pick 1 due to our account limits with this small account challenge. Happy we snagged a win, although small, because of our poor entry. Lot's of good lessons today and looking forward until tomorrow. Nighty night!

niceee ana
Morning traders. You guys probably will start to think I'm stoned. Had another loss yesterday.. but I'm absolutely not hinged from my goal. I know I'll get back on the horse. This has happened before it's just unfortunate that it's happened early on when I start a public new journey.

Weekly Recap

Thinking about adding a section to the Google Sheets Trade Journal where I show my account value so we can see the grow (or right now the "decline") of the account and the deposits/withdrawals I make. Since I always like to "pay myself" a % each month from all my ventures. Cash flow is king and that sets my ventures up in a more sustainable way. Lmk if you'd be interested to see that I think I would be so I'll probably do it.

I've reviewed all my trades and I must say my biggest mistake is just entering too early. The bad streak realy started when I missed a perfect entry due to trying to avoid using up one of my 3 trades. That made me rush my next trade somehow and also the one after made me hold to long because if I went overnight I wouldn't loose one of my day trades. It's a backwards thinking and I can't let this depict my trading.

That's why I now have 2 accounts with roughly $1k in each. That gives me 6 day trades. If I see a good setup I'll trade it no matter what. If I run out of trades by Wednesday so be it. If a trade doesn't go my way I'm out right away. I ideally want to be in and out very quickly. I'll always start off the day with my 1-3 favorite stocks with limit orders ready to go. Mainly because I'm fairly good at calling out moves but then have been messing up on execution (getting too aggressive / not waiting long enough)

Have a great weekend everyone!

P.S. Hope you have been enjoying these recaps and also the new review layout. 3 pics (intraday, zoomed out, trade doc)

nice analusis here mate. look forward tos seeing more for next week
