I was plagued by doubts this morning, haunted by my profligacy Monday. Thankfully I have achieved what I set out to do this morning which was make a few trades and earn some money.
I played with a maximum £5 a point so I must have won 30 points, I'm not concerned with how I won them only that I did.
I traded so carefully, each pound was and is precious. I have to maintain that attitude, keep my stake small and build step by step.
I feel a hell of a lot better at 4.30pm than I did at 8am.

I know my weakness, I get cocky, greedy and eye big money. I actually look upon this week's losses and subsequent humbling as a positive. The acute distress and pain it has caused is a place I never want to revisit.
I'm going to forget about trading, stop reading books and just enjoy this weekend, the break will do me good.
Next week's target is to remain disciplined and post a positive return every day. If I do that I shall be sitting here posting feeling a real sense of achievement and of course my account balance will be considerably healthier.
Nice weekend.
