Crazy Day! But Good!

Friday, March 12, 2010

Well, at least it wasn't Friday the 13th, right?!?

The office/den area where I trade is directly above my son's bedroom (which is downstairs).  He is almost six years old, and he is, without hesitation, an EARLY riser.  When we finished out our downstairs in our home, I was super anal about making sure every wall, every ceiling, every place possible was double insulated.  I did not want me moving around lightly upstairs (wait, can a 200 pound man move around lightly???) to wake up the kiddies downstairs.

Guess what, it obviously does no good.  And today was no exception.  Seconds after I tiptoed into my office, there was Nick, begging to use my iPhone to play some video games before mom got up.  Unfortunately, his opening and closing of doors and using the toilet woke up our 18 month old, who then woke up mommy.  I had a room full of family before 6:20 AM!  Good grief people!  Stay in bed!

Today was a great day for trading, regardless of my audience.  Actually (just in case my wife reads this) I was THRILLED to have everyone around me.  With three different trading opportunities, I was ready to go!

My first trade was over in less than eight seconds.  Wow!  When is the last time anyone you know has made $800 in eight seconds.  Let's see, a normal annual salary, if you were to make $100 per second, would be like $7.5 million a year!  But let's get back to reality, people.  As it is, I don't make $7.5 million per year (yet), but the opportunity to make that kind of money in just a few minutes of time is astounding.

My second trade spanned about six minutes, but I was again able to pull in another $800.00.  For the day, even after commissions, I pulled down nearly $1500.00.

I attribute my continued success to the things I have learned from Market Mover Trading - 110%.

Here's to a great weekend everyone!

See you back next week.
