#SPX1dte Another week torpedoed by over-trading on a Friday. Just a blistering reversal that I could not get filled on, so chased all the way to close for 7.80.

Third losing week in a row. I set some new rules for myself last Friday and I stuck with them mostly… until today. My first error was selling before the report. I got stopped out on bottom for a small loss. My second error was selling too soon after the open, but even if I had waited this rally would have stopped me. My last error was not being aggressive enough on exiting when my upside stop was hit.

So the new rule I am implementing today is a temporary halt on trading for CPI report, Fed announcement, and Jobs report days. I will not place trades for these days until current volatility comes down and inflation/interest rate concerns significantly diminish.
