Day 20 of DayTradingJournal:
Today I did my first test of the algo that I have been trying to make. I put it live right from the morning and let it take all the trades that comes its way. Surprisingly, the algo did very well. (I think if I did manually, I might not have been so good).
Learnings for today: Keep the faith on the system, it pays well.
Since TV does...
Indusind Bank has been moving in a rising parallel channel from 23 January 24. The difference between the lower trend line of the channel and the upper trend line of the channel is Rs 122 to Rs 130.
On April 19 it bounced from the lower trend line. If you feel like taking a chance you can buy and look for an upside of Rs 90 atleast.
Day 15 of DarTradingJournal :
Good day today, algo gave good profit. I also made some profit trading manually. Need to learn to keep faith on algo, it keeps on doing better than me.
Day 22 of DayTradingJournal:
Let the algo run from the morning. Algo did a good job. Had an issue with internet in later part @2:30 when it stopped downloading data and hence no signals. This eroded my profitablility, otherwise later on I checked up eod data and ran a backtest to see the discrepancies in the live vs backtest data. Surprisingly, both matched. Other...
Day 21 of DayTradingJournal:
Full live algo deployed. Algo did very well compared to what I think I'd have done had I taken trades manually. Algo did as expected, taking all the entry, exit, SL, Tgt signals correctly.
Progress: No manual trades today, no FOMO, no front-running the signal, no fear/greed while sitting in front of the system. Had an instance when I...
Day 19 of DayTradingJournal :
Good day today, the algo performed as expected. Gave correct signals and fired correct signals to broker account. Tried tweaking some more, but then after running on dummy account realised that the existing setup is better, so will continue with it tomorrow as well. Tomorrow, will let all signals go through the algo and see how it...
Day 18 of DayTradingJournal: Today was a good day with my algo finally doing as expected. Had this issue since last two days, though I had fixed it up last night, however, realised a small bug had crept up, was taking data from one set and applying to another set and expecting correct results. Obviously wrong, got it resolved and then tested it. The algo now gave...
Day 17 of DayTradingJournal:
Today was a very boring day if you are only into trading. I got busy on working on my algo since it was not yet ready and I was not getting response as expected, still working, hopefully should progress little bit by tomorrow. So, a productive, busy day, but no trading.
Day 16 of DayTradingJournal:
As its with me and Mondays, weekend made me lose my sync with the market, took some manual trades looking at the charts and ended up making losses. Did some more coding on the algo yesterday which did not work properly on the broker's account today and hence was tied up in resolving that. Got resolved by day end, so hopefully tomorrow...
Day 13 of day trading journal.
Stayed away as could not login in the morning, so could not get insync with the market.
Let the algo run and do paper trade for records and understanding and faith on the system....worked out well, will continue.
Day 12 of day trading journal.
Good thing about today : No impulsive trades, no panic, no FOMO
Paper trade on my excel based algo gave good results (better than my manual trading).

Day 11: Took an impulsive trade, lizard brain got me again. Need more consciousness to control it. Need more practice. Other than that, logic seems to be working good, strategy seems to be profitable, only issue is with practice so that lizard brain can be brought under control. Hate the market timings - very few hours to practice, the first hour just goes in...
Day 10, thought of punting ( front running) and got in before getting the signal. Bad idea. The signal never came and had to take a loss. Learning for today.
Achievement for today: Did not feel frustrated waiting, did not take more than two trades.
