Reflections

Last night I experienced some frustration getting started on TradeStation. I have become accustomed to entering all my orders in the evening for any trades I frame for the next day. Unless there is some box for me to check or uncheck somewhere within the TradeStation platform, that does not seem to be an option. I was able to enter the orders this morning before the market opened, but the frustration definitely moved me out of the zero-state last night. There are some other order entry options available that will expedite placing orders and some of the day-trading systems, so I’m not giving up on TradeStation yet. IB had a learning curve until I became familiar with the platform. I should be prepared for the same set of obstacles with TradeStation. The journey is not about the speed of implementation. It’s about the process and continuing to move forward.
