  Week 2 
 
 Total Buys	22
 Wins	16
 Loss	1
 Unsold	5 [ See note]
 	
 Profit Only	132.64
 Loss Only	-5.4
 Total P&L	245.22. [ Since Start]
 
 So mistake I made this week is that I woke up one hour after market open and so I did not enter my 2% exit on time. On account of this i missed on four more wins and they are still in the unsold category. So wins should technically have been 20 out of 22 , so lesson learnt

 THANK YOU, redversa721 for continuing to share your TRO-S-CROCK-POT-2-0 trading experience.
 Much appreciated, and congratulations on your successful experiments.
 
 in xarlor's CROCK POT experiment to help kossvet (Robert), xarlor came up with a suggestion to 
 initiate a position near Friday close instead of Monday at the open. This suggestion may mitigate 
 some of the risks of missing the open.
 
 I couldn't remember who and where I saw this, but someone suggested it might be easier and safer
 to learn and experiment with  CROCK POT as 0.2% a day instead of 1% a week.
 
 Best.

  Hi!
 
 I believe Cheese is referring to this post:
 
 https://www.stockfetcher.com/forums/General-Discussion/The-Rumpled-One-crock-pot-filter/149574
 
 To clarify, it was kossvet's idea to enter at the close of Friday and sell Monday.  My idea was to set a 1% trailing stop-loss at 2% profit to possibly capture some more gains.

  Thanks Cheese, I will continue this experiment and see what happens for the next 8 weeks. 
 
 It's a good point regarding entering on friday and then setting up exit positions. I have to manually backtest it thgh before I can start off on that endeavor. 
 
 Thanks all for the positive encouragement.

 Xarlor. yeah good point , some of these stocks do have a decent run up during the day. so not a bad idea. Just that it will be feasible for someone having a lot of screen time to punch in the TSL when stock crosses 2% gain.

  To:
 redversa721, VenturaTrader, SAFeTRADE, snappyfrog, ron22, Mactheriverrat, xarlor,
 and all people who posted about crock pot over the years
 
 First of all, thank you again for your help on my crock pot learning journey.
 
 I just want to share my learning experience, mainly for a laugh, 
 but who knows this may help some future generation of crock pot newbies.
 
 I've learned a few things from reading the posts and trying my hand at crock pot trading:
 
 * crock pot trading may be simple, but it is risky and it's not easy for me as a learner.
 * Reading TRO's STAT SCAN + MTC + RFR + crock pot threads = better understanding of crock pot
 (just like getting a walkthrough of how a car or a computer works)
 * Whoever suggested learning to trade crock pot to make 0.2% daily made a great suggestion.
 So essentially learning crock pot trading = scalping or day trading crock pot.
 * The posts with warnings and suggestions about loss and risk are very important, 
 whether trading crock pot or anything else.
 
 Again, a big thank you to all of you !

  @redversa721,
 
 A few questions if you don't mind.
 
 1..  For week1 of your testing you indicated you had invested about $5K
 
 a.  Are you investing nearly the same amount in each position in a given week?
 b.  Are you increasing the total amount you have to invest with the gains you've accrued?
 c.  Is the total amount available for a given week's trades reduced due to the positions you held over?
 
 2.  For the 2 positions you held over from week 1, how did they turn out?
 
 3.  Did you run a Week 3 of tests last week?
 
 Thanks,
 Ed S.
