see how trading and really, any form of risk taking just fucks with your head completely...emotions...everything...ego...you name it
I've spent a good portion of this thread preaching how you have to stick to your method completely and don't deviate...and here I was deviating not once but twice...taking two extra trades I should NOT have...and losing an additional 15+ points or so in the process.
This is why most traders lose.

reality check
As documented, both in real life and in this thread, I've made at LEAST +150 points of mistakes (taken trades I shouldn't have, and not taken trades I should have).
So even though I'm in the middle of a prickly drawdown at the moment, this thread is far from being abandoned by me as a failure any time soon.

I smell a short coming tomorrow morning? Another loser, or my first profitable trade in just about 13 years? Guess I'll have to wait and see...

As good as I was the first couple of months, I've been equally as horrible (and then some) the past few weeks...sad...lol

Been quiet this week so far...not by design...but just not getting any signals
Looks like it might be setting up for a short tomorrow morning...I'll know more when I wake up tomorrow.
