A Day Trading Journal Towards Financial Freedom

October 2025 P&L

Hello Folks. Today, we made a humble $930, less commissions and fees. Not bad for an hour or less of a day’s work. I am truly excited about this new venture where I journal my trades. This will help me remember my executions, regardless of outcome. Without further ado, let’s get into it!

Analysis: The ES and NQ Futures pre-market were pointing to a bullish sentiment. At the same time, I plotted a declining trendline from the last friday China Tariff scenario, which the ES had already broken up from, allowing for a possible rally today.

As you can see, after touching the top for the fourth time, ES was able to settle or to close above the trendline. At the same time the daily 20 SMA (blue line) was near, I felt that the price will want to play and tickle that price area.

As you can see, the market rallied upon opening. I didn’t jump in right away as I was assessing the strength of the movement. By the time the price started to play around the 6752 area, that’s where I started to pay some interest and opened a position, with the stop loss at 6740-ish. I kept on adding and adding, and you can see with all the broken green lines and scaled out towards the top once I saw that 6760 broke out. I noticed that the chart didn’t give me any reason to sell or to cover my positions because the micro dips were being bought up every time. The trade felt right and easy, there was a clear trend and less of a back and forth action that can ruin option premiums on SPX.

If there is anything that I can improve on is to allow the price to breathe a little and sell at higher options prices rather than cutting my wins after a $1 or $2 premium rise. There’s nothing wrong with locking-in profits but it also hinders me from maximizing my profits.
