Notes for April:
Notes for April:
Have been avoiding the 9:30-to-lunchtime price action (too volatile for me).
Trading the pre-MMO successfully but even more so in the evening sessions.
Good idea: skip trading the day following "extra large gainer" days...(make it a rule?)

April 2018 trades
The charts below are my daily trades for the entire month.
The combined charts have 1) entry rationals, 2) results and often 3) what happened after the trade was closed. All tick Gain/Loss numbers and net dollar amounts are adjusted to show just 1 contract per trade. Daily summaries (after commission) are posted below each Session Separator.
