This was on a live account. It turned out to be exactly breakeven including commissions. One objective is to be able to see what we can point out after the session, during the session.
Later in the day, around 2:40 PM the market rallied. If you don’t trade at that time based on your plan/routine, you’ll miss out on those. If you notice a trend where there are opportunities in the afternoon, you can try to tweak your plan to try and take advantage of them.
I switched to a simulator account and had big losses, however I was there when the rally came, and ended with gains.
