150 2 2026-10-08 day trading DE40 0.45 0 Good entry, but unsuccessful.
149 2 2026-10-07 day trading US2000 0.44 0 Ok trade.
148 2 2026-10-07 day trading USTEC 14.76 0 I don't know why I exited early, my profit target was placed before any liquidation zone. I should have risked it and just place the SL at breakeven and let the trade run. I would have been right on my initial analysis.
147 2 2026-10-07 day trading XAU -0.16 0 Exited due to wrong position size.
146 2 2026-10-06 day trading XAU 17.97 0 The early exit was ok, it wasn't an A+ setup.
145 2 2026-10-06 day trading BTC -0.03 0 auto-exit, breakeven SL was hit
144 2 2026-10-06 day trading BTC 4.20 1P * see trade #143
143 2 2026-10-06 day trading USTEC 8.48 1P Entered the same time with trade #144. Made a mistake in having two correlated positions, but I should not have exited them early when both trades were positive. I should've just set the SL at breakeven for both and just let the trades run to have 3 good outcomes, either breakeven, 1x win, or 2x win.
142 2 2026-10-05 day trading JP225 22.43 0 Nice entry and good exit
141 2 2026-10-05 day trading BTC -6.99 0 The entry here wasn't that good, I need to be more patient and wait for a clear setup.
140 2 2026-10-05 day trading JP225 -0.23 0 Good entry, but exited due to the lack of momentum.
139 2 2026-10-02 day trading US500 31.36 SL- , 1P * same as the last trade
138 2 2026-10-02 day trading US500 18.06 SL- , 1P This is an impulsive trade. I am still having problem dealing with consecutive losses. I need to meditate on this.
137 2 2026-10-02 day trading XAU -33.48 0 This was a good entry in my opinion, but the position took way too long to close and a major economic event just took place. Went from break even into a complete loss in just 5 seconds.
136 2 2026-10-02 day trading JP225 -23.16 0 I was rushing on the entry. I feel there was no need to let the stop-loss get hit, it was obvious at that point so I exited early.
135 2 2026-10-02 day trading US500 -5.83 0 Ok exit at a loss.
134 2 2026-10-01 day trading US2000 21.87 0 Exited early, I think it was a good decision.
133 2 2026-10-01 day trading BTC 0.63 0 Had to exit at break-even, wasn't comfortable with the price action.
132 2 2026-09-30 day trading BTC -22.86 SL- , 1P * see trade #131. No more trading for today, I could have lost big here. I need to meditate on what happened today and why I made so many mistakes.
131 2 2026-09-30 day trading BTC 0.63 SL- , 1P Another mistake similar to trade #129. I need to be careful trading before or right after a major economic report. Price swings happen so fast that I wasn't able to analyze the price action and locate the proper turning points.
130 2 2026-09-30 day trading BTC -2.84 SL- , 1P * see trade #129
129 2 2026-09-30 day trading BTC 41.05 SL- , 1P The price swing happened so fast but I knew a reversal was needed because of a major liquidation sweep, I felt the strong urge to place another position and I did, I violated a major rule. It was happening so fast that I couldn't take time to think, the position after this was based on a gut feeling.
128 2 2026-09-29 day trading US500 10.00 0 The entry here was rushed. After analyzing the higher timeframe, the real pressure was against my direction. But soon as the price-action gave me the best time to exit, I took it. Looking back, this was another great decision on the exit for today's trades.
127 2 2026-09-29 day trading BTCUSD 19.78 0 I didn't wait for the target profit to be reached because after hitting the initial resistance, the momentum slowed down a lot. Looking back, it was a very good decision.
126 2 2026-09-28 day trading BTC 7.14 0 Exiting early, the bounce didn't generate the needed momentum to suggest the start of the reversal.
