Thoughts

Traded five days this week.

US markets were closed on Monday & Tuesday due to hurricane Sandy, NYSE reopened on Wednesday

Huge volatility on BG after results.

A decent week, although I gave some profit back trading BG too much. Best profit was a long on BP which I held overnight as it hadn't hit my stop and closed at 0822 after results came out strong.

I need to concentrate on the stocks which pay best and I have deleted LLOY from the stock list as the spread is too wide for intraday trading.

Stay disciplined.

Stay focussed.
