I came in Friday with GS and NVDA positions. Last piece of each.
NVDA gapped up and let me out for a profit. +38% on the total trade
GS didn't help me. -6%
Then I took a new trade, AVGO puts which dropped and then ate me up while it chopped. I stopped before it dropped out again. Can't break the rules. Greed=losses. So I took -14%
Overall week +31%, in the form of 2 bigger up days, 3 tiny down days, and really a lot of frustration.
FAST OPTIONS TRADING. Fast in/out. Apply trading rules like CLOCKWORK. Have a day. Sleep at night. This is my personal trading journal*.
