Seemingly I missed the sell opportunity. In hindsight, orange box in the picture below is the ideal entry but I wanted some advance then pull-back after that candle. As it's straight down without pull-back, I have to wait some major pull-back and see if sell is still valid. The closer to VWAP, the safer it is. It will take some time....

One trade and done for the Asian session. There's a reason why day traders love VWAP. It takes some time before you find the value of it, but obviously it has an edge. Patrick Wieland also ditched VWAP at first then adopted it again several years ago. He virtually trades based on VWAP and 21 EMA.

By the way, I had a loss trading of $39 on last Monday but it's not tallied on Lucid's system. I think that's because they don't count U.S. holidays in which CME exchange closes early. I remember I read this from their long list of 'rules'.

First trade was a loser. Market is way too oversold and it wasn't easy to squeeze more sellers....

Recouped most of my previous loss. It turned out to be a typical VWAP player trap.....

Too much stretched already. I don't expect a decent entry opportunity. Done for the Asian session.....

Hi Justin,
If you see Price being Held at a Level be wary of Entering a Trade.
More often than not it is better to WAIT

Managed to recover from the loss but it was quite messy. The second loss was bigger than usual as I accidentally clicked the sell button twice.... Nonetheless, I made the day green. Done for the day.
Hope tomorrow will be better.......

Hi Justin,
It's the silly mistakes that we all make, I've definitely Pressed the Wrong Button more than once, that we need to be prepared for when it comes to Live Trading.
Glad to see you are moving in the right direction

Market is bloody choppy and I whipsawed for multiple time. Dancing around VWAP. Done for the day. I don't trust this market.

I lost control and made two revenge trades. One loss and one win. Reduced the total loss a bit. Total mess... Day trading makes me sick indeed! Really done for the Asian session.

What I found is when market is choppy and if you have to bet the breakout direction, you'd better bet to the direction of MA trend indicates.... Not always but very often.

Bounced from VWAP. Unless it's breached, it looks bullish.....

Even if VWAP is breached, there are a bunch of major MAs under VWAP. I want to consider buy only at this time.....

Two BEs and one loss. Done for the day and the month. Very choppy which is understandable as today is the last trading day of the month. I was struggling a lot during this week. Very disappointing.... Hope next month is better.
