Friday, 16. June 2017 - Meh

CFDs I closed out the short sugar position for a small win and also made a quick trade in silver yesterday which was a small winner. Overnight i opened a small short gold position which is going my way but only small as well. Then i went long QID and shorted a stock Tim Knight mentioned in his segment that has a beautiful setup and looks like its breaking down nicely. I think next week ill have to look into oil/energy, looking at some charts there are some nice setups. ALSO... goddamn wheat went all the way back up and turned into what wouldve been a winner of about 2/3 of the value of what i locked in as a loss yesterday. Frustrating especially because the assumption was right, i just couldnt stomach the volatility. ToS CORN calls and the weed stocks pulled me down today. Ive given up on X and will just let it expire out of the money to save the commission to close it.

CFDs After all the successful trades in the last week, i looked at Wheat and Sugar yesterday and saw that Wheat had broken some significant resistance to the upside and sugar did the same to the downside. So i thought id get involved. Especially Sugar looked really good. I went long /ZW and shorted /SB. They were bouncing around quite a bit from green to red and back. I thought about taking them off with small profits, but one thing i felt i did wrong in previous trades was pulling out early. So i decided to leave them on over night, which was a mistake. Especially Wheat punished me hard. I still have them on and i will see how they go today, but im pretty sure i will be locking in quite a bit of a loss here unfortunately. I think the problem were neither mechanics or plans. The problem is just that those instruments are crazy leveraged so that i just cant stomach the fluctuations when they go against me. But i guess thats what i will have to live with...
