Trading Update: 3/11 – 3/15
I caught myself still not adhering to my hedges that I should take which left me once again fighting the trend. I’m clearly making it harder than it should be at times. But at least it’s a problem I’m actively working to bring a solution to.
This was the week the March contract stops trading so I had to rollover my positions to the June contracts. I did it all at once, but I see I could have timed it better for better rollover rates.
Of course I “learn” all these things in hindsight, but at least it helps me in not repeating the same mistakes.
Have to focus more on making my hedge trades being independent from my directional trades so I don’t miss/ignore the obvious cues.
