June 10th, 2026
June 10th was a reminder that consistency matters more than emotions.
I followed my rules exactly and finished the day with a profit. After a strong day—or especially after a stretch of difficult ones—I always feel a little nervous coming into the next session. There’s a temptation to overthink things, second-guess setups, or try to force trades.
Today, I did none of that.
I trusted the system, stayed patient, and executed the plan as designed. There was no panic, no emotional decision-making, and no deviation from my rules. The result wasn’t a huge home run, but it was a solid, profitable day—and that’s exactly what I’m aiming for.
More importantly, it was another day of proving to myself that disciplined execution is what creates long-term success. The profit was nice, but following the plan was the real win.

Let’s take a look at the trades from the day.
The first trade came shortly after the open at 8:40 AM. It was a strong start, hitting the target for a gain of 165 points on the first contract. I then let the runner continue, which added another 67.50 points before eventually stopping out.
The next trade, at 10:35 AM, didn’t work out and resulted in a loss of 56.25 points per contract. A second setup later in the morning also failed, costing 52 points per contract. At that point, most of the early gains had been chipped away, and the day was looking much less impressive.
Fortunately, one final setup appeared at 2:15 PM. This trade turned out to be the difference-maker, delivering 137 points per contract and turning what was becoming a mediocre session into a solidly profitable day.
What I like most about this day is that I stayed disciplined throughout. Even after taking back-to-back losses, I continued following my rules and was ready when the next valid setup appeared. The final trade was a great reminder that one quality setup can completely change the outcome of a trading session.
Total Profit: $518.26
