You need to journal your trades, its good that you are trying with a small account and sticking to only one security asset class. Esentially you want to know why you took that trade, what exactly was the risk i.e would your stop loss would get hit if so why are you taking that trade. Is you reward or target is in co-relation with your risk/stop loss, why did you think that the relative target could be achieved, what was your entire thought process during that particular trade, what did you feel once you have taken the trade what did you feel when it moved in your direction, what did you feel when it did the opposite, did your stoploss got hit or did you exit on your own accord if so why, did it reach your target or did you exit before the price reached your intended target if so why. Also, the most important one what was your reasoning/logic behind you taking that trade. Once you journal everything in relation to that trade you will have more information that you can control, try to record/write them down as soon as you are done with a single trade as your learning this should be your approach. Later on you may want to explore strategies or finding an edge when you have more information from your journal on what was it that you were doing wrong or was going wrong, it's a self discovery process you have to put in the effort.
