Another decent month all while using small $10k positions. First 2 weeks were choppy with alot of top tick covers, then went on a 10 day green streak to end things strong.

Still in the process of refining setups and criteria so will likely keep size the same for May and

Ending the month on a green note. Nice entry on $AGBA parabolic, was looking for more fade but things holding up well today. $GMM backside entry but wouldnt give it up so bailed out.

Soon as I say no trades $ZAPP pops up for a top tick partial fill W, not much else moving.

+$3215 Nice green day on 2 simple trades, $ACON para and $BRFH backside in PM and recycles over 2.10

On a nice little 7 day green streak 👍

Very difficult/scammy action in small caps today. Identifying market conditions is key to go from nail and bail approach or home run ADFs

$CSSE $CSSEP $BOF $AIRE $MTC

$MTC should be on everyones ban list

No trades today. Had a couple opportunities but just missed the right entry.

Base hit green day. Last couple Mondays were tough so just went half size nail/bail

One of the best trading videos ever, highly recommended watch. I make it a habit to watch it once a month as I keep learning more each time.

Turns out 100% stop produces the highest gain/trade, however its not as practical since you will have to use smaller size to accomodate the wide stop.

Ideal stop is 40% with the highest simulated expected growth%

Nice win on $ZCMD to end the week, pretty slow action today so calling it here.

Shorting a >100% gapper with which stop produces the highest gain per trade%

Scratch day here. Took a loss on $TIRX in PM with a brutal top tick exit, then missed the fade down. Just worked to get flat after that otherwise could have been a nice day.

After years of data analysis of many short biased setups, the best returns are found from:

1) Full size entries
2) Wide stops
3) EOD covers

I've never found scaling, recycling, tight stops, or partial covers to improve metrics.

But I still do it anyway 😂

First 5fig day in a while, mostly thanks to $WISA D2 setup. $SPEC $INVO $EDBL new backside short setups on smaller size
