Nasdaq Intraday Review – Friday 26 Jan 2024

I trade Nasdaq intraday exclusively
Trading in GMT time zone
Sharing my post day review & analysis in case it can help you :)

I'm reading a trade phycology book called the "Mental Game of Trading" by Jared Tendler.
In it he explains that each trader has a C-game (where all your worst mistakes are made), a B-game (where you are a little bit profitable but are still making some mistakes) and an A-game (where you are really performing well).

Today, I was making every single mistake in my C-game.
Trading against the trend, cutting trades too soon, flip-flopping from a sell to a buy and chasing price.

Don't know what the hell happened, that I suddenly made all these mistakes.
But I am out for the day (at a loss, of course).
Not trading when I am clearly in my C-game mentality!
Disaster ;(

But despite my horrible trading day....January has been my most profitable trading month ever.
Bad days happen - one bad trading day does not make you a bad trader (don't let it get you down - just learn from it).

Hope you are having a better day....good luck!
