I only traded one day this week and that was Monday. This market is just too damn boring right now and sitting there day after day doing nothing seems like a huge waste of time and there's no way I'm putting in 8 hours a day to make a lousy 69 bucks. Plus it's always a good idea to get away from the market every few months just to get recharged. I always seem to do much better after taking a break for some reason.
Anyway, looks like I didn't miss much. We are headed into a seasonally bullish period here so I did start a few swings trades last week. So far they're overall loser's but I'm willing to give them some room over this week and early next week.
Hopefully once earnings start the market will open up some but I'm prepared to sit on my hands and not do anything if that doesn't happen. Better times will come but for right now the best moves I've made all month have been to take vacations.
Here's the week, keep in mind everything after Monday was just the daily fluctuations for my swings. I may or may not trade next week depending on how I feel. Right now I'm inclined to continue in vacation mode.
