Trading is fun and (sometimes) profitable...
These are actual US equities trades, using a fairly aggressive strategy that I have previously mentioned in What is your Trading Style?
I have many more 'paper' entries, but these are the few that happened in an actual trading account.
Today I Bought
WPM @ $25.5141
Today I Shorted
CLVS @ $12.45
CSX @ $70.14 (Stopped out at $72.05)
GWPH @ $161.88
Open Trades
| Ticker | Entry | Direction | Size* | Date |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| CLVS | 12.45 | Short | 2.75% | Today |
| GWPH | 161.88 | Short | 4.88% | Today |
Positions sizes are approximate, and given as a percentage of trading account. Position sizing is based on perceived risk, with effective Risk Management as critical to strategy.
Closed Trades
| Ticker | Gain/Loss | Size | Duration | Opened | Closed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CSX | -2.72% | 10.52% | 0 | Today | Today |
Gain/Loss given as percentage on notional value of trade, with size a percentage of trading account. G/L x Size = % change of account value based on trade outcome. Duration is total calendar days a position was held, and shows as 0 when a position was opened and closed in the same day (day trade).
Evalutating all position outcomes from Closed Trades, over a large enough sample, could support an approximate calculation of total portfolio return. Actual results may vary.
This is my trading journal. Results are published for entertainment purposes. This is not financial advice. This is not legal advice. This is not even advice.
