Day 36: Day Trading JournalDay 36 : Today, I put a halt on algo trading as well as day trading. After algo day trading for @14 days, I realised that I was not making profit, whatever profit had accrued was taken away by market. So I went back to my algo backtesting and stress tested it for worst case conditions and that actually came very close to my real time trading. Then I realised that day trading is not gonna make money.
So I have decided to stop day trading and figure out a way to trade swing, now to see whether to follow the hourly chart or the daily chart and if any rule can be applied to it. For the next few days I will focus on trying to find that, meanwhile any trade I do manually will be a swing (holding overnight) to see how it goes.
