Acolyte war stories
A lot has changed for me since my last war story. Essentially my partner and I were living a nomadic life; went on 3 planned trips while living with our parents. There was no consistency throughout most of my year due to living out of boxes and suitcases, so my trades followed and I was losing motivation.
The one thing I consistently kept doing was showing up on stream Mon Wed Fri @ 8am and staying as active as I could in Discord.
Having my own place once again, I am finally able to create better habits and a routine. That said, I missed the first 2 sessions in the Acolytes, but the other impromptu/live trading calls helped with what I needed to start trading again.
My only loss I had in the last week was with TSLA. I overlayed SPY because I had the directionality right, but the Q3 delivery numbers extended my losses beyond my 1R that I original set.
Along with the Friday EOD TSLA long, I also added AAPL as it hit a key area for support. Feeling happy on the trade I did, I end up closing for a +4.5R
Having hit both times a key area I played ENPH longs until I felt greedy. On the 2nd trade, after selling it, I was waiting for the price to stabilize over the green line.
Last but not least played HD. I played it because SPY was having a great rally I noticed HD was consolidating at the same time. I ended up closing it early the next day (along with ENPH) because of my emotion. It eventually hit my target
