A milestone achieved

Hard to believe, hard to admit, but after 2 years I just posted my first net profitable month in my trading account. I have recently had profitable trading months but have not managed to cover platform fees until this month. This is progress, albeit slow (or randomness). No, I see improvement.

Long time no post... back to trading

Took some live trades today and did not do very well. Have not done very well for 2 years now. Keep on keepin on. What good can I get out of today's lousy trading? Well, after I got past the first trade I actually got over much of the psych shit that has plagued my live trading. Wasn't very nervous about the positions, even as I took loss after loss.
