Thursday – 3/12/09



I finished the day flat with a loss of -187 USD. I lost over 200 USD on a FAZ scalp and otherwise only made a few fx trades. I am not sure exactly what happened in the above shot. I placed a sell order to liquidate my long and for some reason it got ran over. I am not sure exactly how it happened but ended costing me $$ as I ended up with a short position (as can be seen by the red icon) and had to close for a loss. I suppose the refresh was delayed within TOS somehow. It’s the first order fill problem that I have had with TOS and otherwise really like the order entry from the charts. Anyway, I ended with a loss on one GBP/USD but I did have two others and a scalp USD/JPY short all for gains.

Overall, I need to work on position sizing and placing and proper placement of stops. If get time tonight I am going to practice the advanced order entry within TOS paper account and create some templates to try to refine the process.
