Running P&L for 2025-11-21

Day P&L: $-8331.36 | Total R: -16.24R

SGBX was a nightmare right out of the gate. I tried a long on the sub VWAP trap at 4.42, but it quickly fell apart. I exited at 4.36 for a loss of $341.24. The tape was weak; it couldn’t hold above VWAP, and that was my first red flag. I should’ve trusted that weakness instead of forcing the trade.

Next, I went for another long on SGBX at 4.12 as a washout long. The setup felt solid, but the stock just kept bleeding down. I took a bigger hit here, exiting at 3.98 for a loss of $2,694.25. This was a classic case of trying to catch a falling knife. I ignored the fact that the overall market sentiment was bearish, and the tape showed no signs of reversal. Lesson learned: sometimes it’s best to let the dust settle before jumping back in.

I moved to EPSM for a quick scalp at 4.35, but that didn’t go anywhere either. I got out at 4.21 for a loss of $278.45. The volume was low, and I could see that the buyers were just not stepping up. The same story played out with MFI, where I entered at 13.35 and exited at 12.98 for a loss of $376.18. Both trades felt rushed, and they were just part of my frustration from earlier losses.

OSRH was next, and I tried to catch a gap and go at 0.71. I got in and out quickly, but the follow-through just wasn’t there. It seemed like every time I thought I found a floor, it would drop right through it. I lost $757.96 on that one, and it was clear that I was not in sync with the tape. After a brief bounce, I attempted a sub VWAP trap, entering at 0.71, but ended up taking another loss at 0.60 for $2,348.97. I was overtrading and didn’t respect my stops.

Finally, I had a small win on OSRH when I got in at 0.71 and exited at 0.72, making $109.32. It felt good to see a trade go my way, but the joy was short-lived. I took another long on OSRH at 0.71, and it tanked again, leading to another loss. It was a day full of poor decisions, and I was chasing my losses instead of sticking to my plan.

I tried to salvage the day with a series of scalp trades on FOXX. I had a couple of small wins, but overall, they didn’t compensate for my earlier losses. The entries were all over the place, and I was just trying to make something happen rather than waiting for the right setups. The tape was choppy, and I got caught up in the noise.

By the time I got to TYGO, I was feeling the pressure. I entered at 4.46 and exited at 3.10 for a hefty $2,049.99 loss. It was a complete breakdown, and I should have recognized the signs earlier. Instead, I was clinging to the hope of a reversal that never came.

What I did well today was maintain some level of discipline in cutting my losses. I didn’t let them balloon out of control, which is a win in itself. However, I was too eager in my entries, often forcing trades that weren’t high probability. I didn’t respect the tape and let my emotions dictate my decisions, which is never a good thing.

Trading grade: D. My entries were forced, and my win rate suffered as a result. I was chasing trades rather than focusing on quality setups, which ultimately led to significant losses.

Tomorrow’s a new day. I need to focus on patience and stick to my plan — no more forcing trades.
