Don't Be Early On A Trade
Disclaimer ** This blog post is being written as a supporting document for the author trade correctly**
One issue that has plagued the trading of the account is getting into a trade too early. Not waiting for verification of the price action has caused a couple of Code Red trades for the account.
When looking for a trade, sometimes there will be possibilities that are almost ready to trade. The price is almost where it needs to be. But there is a pretty good rule out there that tells the trader to wait until the price has completely gotten to the point needed before trading. Because of greed, some traders will ignore this rule. They think that since the trade is going to a certain point anyway, why not just purchase the options now. That way, they can save money on the price of the option and, if the trade goes well, make more money than previously projected. This account is no different.
But the result on a couple of trades (UUP put trade and USO call trade) has been the exact opposite. There was resistance and support. The trades went completely in the other direction. Had the account waited until the correct price point had been hit, the account would have saved some money.
So remember to wait for your technicals to confirm the trade. It might cost you a few dollars right away, but could end up saving you many more dollars in the future.

New Addition To Worst Trades Ever
There had to be a full moon and there must have been a ladder walked under, a cat crossing the path, and an umbrella opened in the room. Because there is no other explanation for the mistake made on Friday.
It started with the UUP trade hitting the Code Red price and the ending of that trade happening. Hey, it happens. It is no big deal. The closing of this trade was the best part of the trading day. But what happened next was right out of crazyville.
As I was posting results on the Stocktwits account, it was noticed that Apple was getting a lot of attention for losing so much that day. It was after 2:30 Central Time. Why was Apple getting hammered so much? The price of the stock was around $576 at the time. A look at the options opened up a great opportunity; or so was thought. It showed the Nov 9, $580 calls selling for $0.03! Immediately 10 contracts were bought. The trade happened with less than 2 minutes remaining in the trading day. Major profits were on the way. But why were the options so cheap? The answer came on Sunday.
Doing research on Sunday revealed the truth. As the Optionsxpress account details page was opened, the Apple options were not in the positions section of the page. Where did they go? The quick answer is that they had expired. The options that were bought expired on November 2nd, not November 9th, as previously thought. Yes, you read correctly. Out of the money options were bought and expired within 2 minutes. The silver lining in this is that capital used for the trade did not surpass limits. At least something worked in the trade!
Here is the take away. Take your time to review your trade. Optionsxpress even has a preview trade before execution of the trade. It was completely ignored due to the time restriction. MISTAKE, MISTAKE, MISTAKE.

Not Purchasing All At Once
Sometimes your research allows you to take on a position that contains many units (shares or options contracts). One thing that needs to be kept in mind is not going in 100% all at once. You should schedule your buys throughout the trade. Major risk abounds by going all in. Capital protection and trade verification need to be achieved.
When purchasing many options contracts or many shares of a stock or etf, an investor or trader feels confident that the expected move will happen. But if that trade is wrong, the losses can increase quickly. One protection against that action is to plan a purchase program in stages. Determining how much to buy when is up to the investor. But going all in right away risks capital that should not be risked. Sometimes sacrificing a little bit of profit in order to protect capital is essential and should be used when possible.
Investors and traders tend to have their egos show up while trading. Let's face the fact that making money is the purpose and feels good. But sometimes we are wrong. The trade sometimes goes exactly the other way the moment we enter. A key to winning trading is to wait for the verification before the bulk purchase. Allowing for verification before the bulk purchase has saved many a traders' capital. This strategy also allows for more trades to be executed because of the fact that losses taken when we are wrong are much smaller than if we go all in.
So remember to use a proper purchase plan when making a decision to purchase lots of stock or many options contracts. Hopefully it will not only save your capital, but extend your profitable trading career.
