My name is Tim Grittani (kroyrunner89), and I've been a full-time daytrader since the beginning of 2012. I've learned a lot along the way from my successes and failures and would like to pass along some of these lessons. This blog will hopefully save me time in answering the dozens of questions I get each week through Facebook and Twitter. If not, I guess I just created more work.
Description
My basic trading philosophy can be summed up by one simple quote:

February Trading Recap
My fourth month of trading smaller and working on my discipline, but also my best month yet! Still plenty to work on though!

January Trading Recap
Much better job not fighting stocks this month and with my sizing, loss cutting could use some work still though. I also need to start focusing on my entries more, way too many missed/squandered opportunities this month!

December Trading Recap
Here's my video recap for the month of December! Overall a slightly better month, but I still have a ways to go. Biggest thing I need to work on is detaching from the money side of things and just focusing on trading well!
