Apex Sniper Trading Bootcamp – “I’m Back!” …


After a period of cluster migraines and headaches, I am back to continue my challenge …


Health Update:


After consistent and endless migraines where I lose my vision and then when it returns I am left with a bad headache, I am happy to say it has been over 9 days since my last migraine and 4 days since my last headache. All medical tests have given me a green light.


I have not been able to trade due to my associated vision issues!!


So where to now:


I was 45 days through my challenge and have approximately 45 days off from trading. 90 Days!!!


As I have not been trading, my thoughts are that I will spend the next week reviewing, catching up on Apex Trading videos and sim trading. After which I will have 30 days to complete my challenge to be profitable and then review where to go from there.


At this time I will only trade ES. This will allow me to ease back into trading and screen time.


Actions I took today:


  • Listened to the trading room but found it annoyed my head (too early .. I think!)
  • Traded 1 trade in Sim … profitable
  • Reviewed the market from open on Sun until close on Monday to identify trades I thought were valid trades on ES

Potential ES Trades


It was a strange day in the ES market and I didn’t see any valid trades I would take from 5:30am until 14:25.


The profitable trade I took in sim was at 5:32am.


Maybe that was my time away from the market!


I did see 6 valid trades for the period from open Sunday until close Monday.


To help me get my form back I will start recording on my spreadsheet all potential trades even if I do not consider them valid so I can record why I chose not to enter them. I just need to sort out how best I will record it.


Resources


I have decided to add a section on resources that I have found to be useful.


The first is the new series of 3 minute coaching videos by Brett Steenbarger.
