==================
Ouch - it has been a while since I had a mental melt down - this was that week. I made two good trades on Monday following my rules but missed 3 great trades. Tuesday I missed in premarket two great trades and my frustration was building. I then spend the next two days getting chopped to pieces in Beans on a bunch of very small trades.  Some of those trades those trades did not even follow my rules. By Friday - my mind was wasted and I should not have traded but with the jobs report - the volatility would be there for some possible big gains. Instead I forced a trade that had nothing to do with rules and tried to turn it into a winner and took one of my larger losses in months.

I got to clear my head and go back to the rules before I go crazy and blow up.
-
Shit.

 Regardless of the good or bad - I still post this crap - lol.
