Another day having the slightest idea what I was doing out there. My stratagem was to basically chase stuff, sell things going down; pray to God it all worked out. In the end, I was sent straight to hell to contemplate my sin, off by 69bps for the session.
There are markets when I cannot lose and then there’s this, an apparent albatross around my neck, strangling me lower into the black to become entangled by Octopi. It’s all very pedestrian and normal, just a guy out here telling you how my day went, an average Joe. I’m a very ordinary and plain person just trying to grow my investment account but the mean markets are stopping me from achieving some of my goals.
Back in my static accounts, I made some money and they just sort of did the exact opposite of my trading, me fumbling over myself into and out from Electric Truck scams and late day gambits into both fear and greed. Very normal Joe stuff.
I realize many of you reading this have heavily matted beards on your faces and sit always at record highs and my mediocrity might annoy you a little. But as children we are taught to have empathy and patience and I am asking that from you now, you and your fucking greasy and disgusting beards.
Into tomorrow, I have lots of longs with a $TZA hedge, because why the fuck not. Somehow I’ll end up losing on bot my longs and shorts. Month to date, I am down about a percent, so it’s nothing too serious, just an ordinary, fly in the woodpile, standard day.

It feels like lately, I’ll be long 6 names, Short 2. One of the longs will go higher, but the other 5 will trade lower…and the names shorted will go higher…Consistently. Wish I could figure out the fucking odds of this repeatedly happening.
It seems to me that maybe the market is just too high for your particular acumen. I remember when you would sort through the whole pile and find find veins of gold, stratagems, themes that matched movements in business and you would bank coin. There is no room in the market at current prices for localized breakouts like that.
Perhaps you should take the advice my golfing buddies would give me when I was in a slump: take a few weeks off and then quit. Heh.
