IF ONLY I Checked the Pre-Market... Daytrading RECAP 04/13/20Hi traders,
Hope you enjoyed the holidays as much as the lockdown allowed you to! Let's take a closer look at one of my Monday trades.
*In my ID trades, I risk 1% of the account per trade and go for 2% (2:1 RRR ). Sometimes I adapt a little bit as you can see in the description.*
SPY was down for the first 1.5 hours and then retraced, spending the better part of the day in a range.
Four trades today:
1) RCL - SHORT @34.83, closed just before the close after it ranged all day together with the SPY for +1.43%
2) SABR - SHORT @5.59, did a couple of mistakes I discuss in-depth in the video. -1%
3) PAA - LONG @6.31, a nice cup and a handle formation, albeit a little extended. It pulled down with the SPY before finally taking off without me. -1%
4) MU - LONG @45.49, initially a short idea, MU turned quite strong later in the day. Similarly to PAA it shook me out before making the anticipated move. -1%
Total PnL for the day: -1.57%
Total PnL for the week: -1.57%
Good trades,
Tom | FINEIGHT
