Missed this EU long as I was stalking the UJ. This is a bit frustrating. 

Update, bought it on limit on the retrace. Done today.

EU long was stopped out. I felt a wave of frustration over me. I got that in the past I made it into a story of how the market wronged me or how I am poor at execution (victim). I let all of that go. I broke the cycle of frustration today after watching EFT video on frustration and journaling instead of acting out in victim. This is a huge win. -2R and I'm done today. Going for a run.

UJ short. 

[jfw215 11]

UJ short still in play. carrying it over the weekend. 

[jfw215 11]

UJ hit target. I was out of town and marked some nice trades that occurred while I was away. 

[jfw215 11]

UJ long stalk. The short stalk is also valid but didn't have enough ticks for a first target.

[jfw215 11]

GU stalk

[jfw215 11]

both GU and UJ orders cancelled.

[jfw215 11]

Nice to wake up seeing target hit.

Here's a GU setup that I skipped. Reasons in the chart

[jfw215 11]

Took 2 attempts to short on EU. The first short was executed rather poorly (not beating self). The 2nd short I am very happy with no matter what the outcome is. These 1min quick rejections are another animal to trade. 

[jfw215 11]

Both stopped. Done today.

[jfw215 11]

Today the PA was very trending. Caught me off guard as there were no trades on the EU. GU current stalk

Took this EU long. Don't like it one bit as the down move seemed very impulsive. 

[jfw215 11]

EU stopped out

[jfw215 11]

I didn't put on this trade this morning. So far its looking good.

UJ short stalk, didn't trigger. I didn't take the long trade. It is valid but I have found it difficult for me to take such trades.

[jfw215 11]
