This blog was created for the sole purpose of documenting and tracking daily day trading techniques and progress. In the past, my trading style was mostly swing trading. However, I am now adding on daily scalps, trading short and long.

Trades for 1/17/2011 - 1/21/2011
Did not day trade this week due to death in the family (one of the advantages of day trading is that you can set your own hours and trade around life).
However, I did take the opportunity on the recent fins selloffs to buy both C and V for longer term swing trades. Sell targets:
V bot $69.50/60 target $72
C bot $4.85 target $5.25

Trades for 1/10/2011 - 1/14/2011
Note: will be adding to this post during the week when time permits. Trading very lightly this week as we have been experiencing snow and ice storms so internet has been intermittently working (not to mention hard to concentrate with kids home from school).
Trades for 1/10/2011 - $20.00
Started the morning with a nice scalp but then gave it back with a loss....
Note: bad day due to trader error. Yak group made 4 successful (very quick scalps) trades. Never a good idea to trade when your off your game.
Trades for 1/11/2011 - $160 profits See video from OMGYak.com (trading room)
