Testing Times.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 1st.  Made a mistake with trade 1 and trade 2 was pretty standard, after that I just couldn't make heads or tails of what the PA was doing so gave up after lunch.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 2nd.  I wanted to take more trades but found myself being precious after trade 2 and doubted my thinking which led to me sitting on my hands on some good setups.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 3rd.  Boring day as price seemed to establish a high and low then chopped about between those levels.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 6th.  Started off with some poor reasoning on my entries, had a couple of losers then finished with a trade that was a proper entry and management trade for a win.  Who would have thought following the plan would work?

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 7th.  Still overly reliant on volume to give a heads up, its good for climactic behaviours but outside that it can make it a little harder to follow.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 8th.  Seemed like a possibly choppy day which led me to bailing on the trades after the impulse move post entry.

Actions for the 9th.  Despite noticing and feeling that the PA was sloppy early on I continued to try and make something of it, I sat out for a bit after trade 7 but still ended up getting tangled in a trade that I should have avoided (trying to make something of marginal PA).

Actions for the 10th.  Watched for a while after trade 1 but thought the day would be like the others so shut down after a couple of hours.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 13th.  My lack of patience really stung today, bailed out too early and rushed back in without much thought to get caught out again.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 14th.  Can't seem to keep a hold of the good ones.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 15th.  Familiar problem with holding trades.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 16th.  Price was choppy and indecisive and I knew it at the time but tried to make something out of nothing, all trades scraped the bottom of the barrel.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 17th.  I was not being as attentive as I should have been early in the session, I then felt out of kilter and decided my safest bet was to sit on my hands as I was a little too frustrated to trust my thoughts.  Despite the negativity it was an interesting day.

Update to the daily time frame.  Not 100% sure what to make of where PA is at the moment, there is a possibility that in the short term price has found support around Wednesdays low which is in the area of the last daily swing Lo-Hi MP, and despite heavy volume on two attempts price could not drop this level.  On the other hand price showed weakness as it moved towards the ATH and stalled on lighter volume before dropping on increased volume, could this be the start of things to come?

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 20th.  Pretty average day, noticed price explored higher and lower but ended the day back at square one on the daily.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 21st.  Super frustrating day.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 22nd.  Need to take every trade that meets the basics, but, it feels like a really trappy PA environment.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 23rd.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 24th.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 27th.  

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 28th.  Seemed like a sloppy PA day.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 29th.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 30th.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 31st.  Volume seemed to be all over the place along with the PA.

[Gamera 15]

Actions for the 4th.  Feel like the market is out to get me sometimes.  On another note, having gone over my trades, I noticed how bad I am at this.  My record is particularly bad in the 30 minutes after 10am so for the time being no more initiating trades in that half hour period.  I also need to continue working on my resilience in the face of adverse PA, that's if I can get a trade off the ground in the opening minutes.
