2/28_ETSY, NIHD

ETSY-stronger than I and I believe many thought and I think lots of shorts stuck in but choppy upward action. I tried twice long but got dumped. Just Unsmooth!
NIHD-gave it time but didn't really pan out as I wanted.

2/27_TTPH, ZSAN, MNK

Had an awesome start on ZSAN but turned it into big loser!!!! made 2 mistakes on it: FOMO long again I should know better that should give it some time to see if $10 hold. But FOMO! 2nd mistake-adding to loser!!! averaging down is fatally damaging!!!!!! I could have walked away ok but didn't.
TTPH-unsmooth action but worked out like I wanted.
MNK-got squeezed big on frontside, using 6k shares on it!!! that's just stupid!!!!! Glad I caught the backside!! shitty company, the entire move is due to short covering!

2/26_NXTD

one ticker, several trades, overall did well. call it a day by 12:30pm!!

2/23_ROKU, MYSZ

Proud of myself on MYSZ read and trade management!!!
ROKU-thought it would test g/r didn't workout
Days like today it would be awesome if you stay green!!!! This is the type of day you close your damned PC and rest/workout/read/research/anything but NOT trading!!!!!

2/22_ANTH, ROKU

ROKU-have to admit I got very emotional when it snapped under $40, I was down $4k realized!!! Not ideal way to start the day but I got conviction on it, all I need is chart confirmation. I think it will at least stay above VWAP and retest premarket high. I was right BUT due to shitty start and recent frustration and aggravation I took it off!
ANTH-lots of refreshed bidders and no real seller so Imma out.

2/21_SHOP, VYGR, ANY, VXX, DPZ

SHOP-position bias!!! was shorting it and stopped out again and again!!!! lost my mind!!!
ANY- thought it would pop thru $3 out of gate but didn't!!! this market is insanely weak!!!
VYGR-good trade. should have chased some.

sky is falling again!!!! this time is for real!!! SPY faked everyone out thought market turning good just before the snap and relentless selloff started.
DPZ-up on tweeter rant so I shorted, $130 didn't reject so I got out!!! Glad I stopped out!Used bit of size for intention of turning shitty day into green. ain't working!!!

2/20_UBNT, MDXG, ACHV, DCAR

MDXG, UBNT-elkwood bash stocks. down 30% to previous close, as a day trade you probably shouldn't touch it. who ever shorted at $80s, $70 banked big on UBNT. MDXG-swing short worked out perfectly.
DCAR, ACHV-niche setup and glad I nailed both of them.

2/16_SNCR, WATT, AMAG, RIOT

turned out today is the DAY for RIOT!!! I shorted it 8 times if not 10 and every time it showed signs of weakness before bouncing right back up to my average. The frustration and bad memory kept me away from it. But think about it, there is a new and powerful catalyst today!!! CNBC exposing their sketchy business and they videoteped the whole attemtpted interviewing process. You have to have put catalyst into consideration!!!!! It's not just about ticker, price action !!! The same ticker-RIOT must be treated differently today than in the past!!!!!!! With SSR and stock traded 20% down it's a chase if you short it!!!! but guess what it went down another 10%!!!!!! Great example telling just because a stock is down doesn't mean a buy and on the contrary just because it's up doesn't mean a short!!!!!!
WATT-good stopped out after 2 ss attemtps.
AMAG-glad I covered 2/3 but it's grinding all the way from r/g and near HOD which I considered powerful move. Took off the 1/3 near HOD.

2/15_NVDA, AMAG MBRX

AMAG-washout then grinded all the way back to HOD and breakout and momo continue. tweeter bash+tick pilot+low float+loss of internet connection makes it very difficult!!!
NVDA-relatively weaker than QQQ but gains its traction when hugging around VWAP.
MBRX-man, no short no long. unclean actiion!!!!!

2/14_VXX, FOSL, NSPR, DBVT, ZN

FOSL-main focus today but $16 countless reclaiming action got me confused and I took attention off it then boom it fell off the cliff.
DBVT-used too much size thought VWAP rejection didn't happen. Stopped out with medium loss
NSPR-thankful for its action
ZN-turned winner into loser, unsmooth action again.
VXX-intention is to avoid it in the first hour then joined the trend but didn't pan out like I wanted.

revenge mode on!!! can't help it!

2/13_VXX, VIPS, ZN, AQMS

knowing VXX will be choppy so ignored it for the first hr and directed my attention to VIPS.
Was green initially but turned supposedly $3k winner into $4k loser. Big picture idea does NOT work in this market!!!! Must focus on scalping especially tomorrow that I decide to take afternoon off.
AQMS-hard to read again, choppy as hell.
ZN-turned $1k winner into $1k loser but glad I stopped out due to continue new high making. In hindsight I should long given crowded action but couldn't pull the trigger!!! Always thought "what if" on back of my mind.

2/12_VXX

had lots and lots and lots of opportunities to at least minimized/lock in but didn't!! Really thought after friday's EOD crack the market will start ramp today and VXX will melt EOD if not in the morning.  Have to cut everything before close !!! no reason staying for a/h or overnight risk.
If traded tomorrow, will look for lower high for adds ONLY!!! shouldn't add to loser!!! shouldn't trade it in size! In the back of my mind I kept thinking VXX no way be trading at this lvl!!! this is absurd!!! it should be worth low $40 or even sub $40 but at the end of day I guess we all have to respect the market!!! accept it and move on! Will be cautiously shorting VXX tomorrow!

2/9_VXX, TWTR, NVDA, GRUB

NVDA-my main focus today, thinking $240 peak and unwind but it traded relative strong to QQQ and QQQ with SPY looked perking so I covered it all.
VXX-pain in the ass again. Had 2 chances to take profit but didn't. turned it into loser;
TWTR-overall good trades, long and short but just too choppy.
kept thinking market will bounce, FUCK THAT!!! respect the price action!!!!!!

the shit ain't ez at all!!!!! I been waiting for this rebound for 4 days!!!! I was wrong all the time but glad I nailed it this time. Truely beautiful SPY reversal!!!! the most proud thing I did was even though it looked no reason to cover but I still covered 2/3!!! Otherwise I would spit blood on EOD squeeze back!!!The key to play these volatility ETF is waiting for the trend to confirm and scale in BUT keep in mind even if it looks good on your direction still scale out partial if not all!!!!
Glad I stayed till the end so I could turned shitty red day into decent green day!! Remember it only works on large cap/general market NOT small cap!!

2/8_VXX, TWTR, NVDA

TWTR made my day however it's trading relatively strong than SPY so I cut it.
VXX-another day pain in the ass. Clearly the majority is wrong on the market! yes it would bounce 90% of chance but just not ready yet. Therefore it gets long crowded and the moment people realized it's not going up they panic sell. I didn't trade it well. Could have cover several times breakeven but didn't. Was too biased and strongly believe market will bounce. Maybe tomorrow then.

turning a fantastic day into not so great day because I overtraded VXX, adding to loser and didn't respect the "STOP"!!! Always thought SPY will reverse suddenly but didn't occur. Adding to the moon and didn't stop out is fatal!!!

got greedy to looking to turn the day around. Profitable on the first trade but gave back all and more on the second one. $240 as a risk lvl but it fucked out. Got way tooo emotional and threw 700 shares at it. it moved like a lightning and my pnl got nasty fast!!

2/7_VXX

very happy with almost all my trades today except big picture stubborn homerun hold in the end. I could have covered some near $40.50 area but didn't!!!! left 2k on the table.

wow, glad I closed the position before the unreal storm. Totally utterly ridiculous move!!!these ETF there is just no way to tell what it's gonna do.Therefore you must be 100% disciplined on it!! cut the loss when stop trigger, wait a few candles before step in, don't fight!!! take advantage the emotions meaning that it's moving all over the place, large distance either above or below VWAP you can take a try. most importantly we been taught to adding to winner but it doesn't work in these ETF!!! You must sell when it looks good and cover when it sellsoff!!! you gonna leave money on the table but it's better than crying you wish were not in the position!!! If you can survive you are already doing better than majority. If you walk away with gains you must be thankful!!!

2/6_SPY, VXX

wild day!! up more than $10k in the morning then cut profit in half then back up at 12:20pm.
ETF is definitely not treated like company!!!
1) DO NOT FIGHT!! it's never to high nor too low!!!
2) rather wait for the trend reverse before jump on it!!! Rather be $1 later than $3 early!!!! Rather mis
3)even if it's going good going well you still got take profit!!! no big picture trade!!!!! YOU must lock in 1/3 if not all because the momo change faster than you ever imagine!
Again I hate trading it but it's the market right now, must adapt!!!! Won't touch small cap unless it's getting traction!
