FAST OPTIONS TRADING. Fast in/out. Apply trading rules like CLOCKWORK. Have a day. Sleep at night. This is my personal trading journal*.

Clockwork Friday +7%. Comfortably intense
Sometime during the session, I thought to myself, "This day is going to be annoying to journal." Maybe that means I overtraded? I did take A LOT of trades. Multiple trades on 7 stocks. I think I'll always wish for a better result, but I must not regret slippage on market orders. Slippage is going to be part of clockwork trading because market orders, especially stop market, is how I avoid the poison of big losses. And trading today's expiration on options... can't stick around for anything!
