The Next Morning
My apologies to anybody that was looking for my trade journal last night. I had a three-hour video conference right after market close and then family stuff all evening. By the time I could sit down to my computer again, I had limited time and other projects took priority.
That's doubly true on days when I don't enter any new positions. My Closing trades are predictable because of trading with Stop orders. I guess I'm gradually going to cash now until I see the right entries.

Open Trades
While everything else about an open trade is established at entry, the ‘stop loss’ order will be adjusted periodically over the life of a trade. The idea is to move the stops at key price points and let the profitable trades keep running.
Stops adjusted each day are in bold. Only one change yesterday.
