This trading blog will be the real deal journal documenting each and every trade I make. Whether going long the shares or shorting a call spread you’ll get my rationale and decision making as it happens. You’ll get to see my mistakes or successes on each trade. In the future I will attempt to provide this blog in video format each day but for now work doesn’t afford the time off during market hours to prepare and post.
In any case, I hope you enjoy. They are meant to highlight many of the steps required to become a proficient options trader or trader in general.
HOWEVER, do not mistake these blog posts as recommendations for you to ever buy or sell a security. I DO NOT suggest you follow my trades. You must perform your own due diligence or consult a registered advisor prior to taking any investments. The information provided here is for educational enjoyment and my own transparent record keeping procedures.

Ok, so its just one picture but it will need some explanation. Also, this picture doesn’t and won’t showcase proper money management. I’ll leave that part to you for this post. What it will do however is demonstrate appropriate entry, exit, profit, and stop targets…aka…the trading plan.
So, generally speaking I don’t love any short term trading strategy.. mostly due to the fact I lose more money than I make but given the simplicity and potential power of this new strategy it seems reasonable to share.

Two things I love; trading and sports. The similarities between the two cannot be overstated. Each requires focus, skill, practice, and most of all, strategy. We can learn a lot about successful trading just by studying our favorite teams or players. Let’s discuss, in brief.
