Will see if I can post one with all the trades I saw (mainly in hindsight).
Lessons learnt today:
1. Do not move stops
2. Trade the plan
3. Careful or simple don't trade when I know I might be distracted
I was a bit annoyed with myself for letting this turn into a slight down day (-2.5 pips) BUT, I feel I have learned from it.Screenshot 2022-04-21 at 17.44.37.png
The -6.5 loss seemed to large based on the other trades you marked. Then there was that breakeven, missed opportunity.
Definitely a possible green day. Hope you learned as you mentioned -2.5 isnt terrible if you must lose but an 8 would have been nicer.
Would you have skipped on that trade, based on the size of the stop that was required?
8 would have been nicer indeed. I'm sure Lem will chip in saying "as long as u learn from it"
