Good morning, my name is Ugly, and I am a loser. I have it in me to do serious financial damage to my account.

Dear Diary,
CASM today proved that it is a force to be reckoned with.
XJT bit the dust. So did SVL - ouch.
TRE and GMXR are going totally nuts.
Recent IPO UARM is doing just fine, as is SPWR.

My last day at my old job was Friday. Now I am preparing to begin trading. I have been thinking of ideas for the last month that I will now solidify. I believe the greatest challenge I face will be psychological. This will be my first time trading for a living and I have and will be doing some preparation to ease this pressure. I am going to try to focus on returns in proportion to risk and try not to think about the money. I will try to establish a routine. The market is familiar to me, but the new surroundings are unfamiliar and I am eager to adjust and become more comfortable.
