The numbers above don't look too bad, actually I am surprised by how decent they are as I had thought I had done much worse than this, but I am very disappointed with the way I traded this week. In a nutshell, I overtraded. As simple as that. Granted this week was very tough to trade, but that is all the more reason to stay on the sidelines. This impatience and looking to making a fast buck is what I must correct the coming week. 

I will be back later this evening and tomorrow with the market review and what to expect next week and also a list of some potential breakout set ups for next week.

Take care and enjoy the weekend!

Note:

1) The table shows only completed trades of the week. The positions that are still open will be accounted for in the week that I close them.

2) The YTD calculation includes the open positions. I just take my account value at end of Friday and calculate it. So, it also includes commissions which do matter a lot to a small account like mine.

Which other blog reports results after commissions? :)
