Bad trade.
Entry was LOWER.
Stop was too big and would be much smaller with proper entry.
Even though tp hit, not good.

Hmmm
A crap shoot without a lower or higher timeframe. In middle.

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
And here is the reason I don't use stops. I'm thinking about what Dave is saying, Alias is telling me, blah blah. NO LOWS GIVEN>. I will have a s**t ton of unnecessary LOSSES. With a normal mindset, knowing I can add more later at a better price I would have held. 100%. While knowing I have to be a miser and protect margin capital like it's rare jewels. LOSS.

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
Now, let me show you the WORST possible trade/entry EVER. And how I managed to get out with a profit. Yes, I could have done better by waiting for the 70 tap as 2nd entry BUT, it's better than the previous trade. The thing about the previous trade is I did not wait for it to take the low, when it failed I should have held for profit target.
COMMITMENT makes a difference.

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
Commitment is the difference, Just wasn't quite enough.
B/E was the GOAL and target was hit.
Profit was not in the cards. (We get what we ask for).

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
So in review. first trade was a winner turned into a loser by trader, 2nd trade "idea" was a winner (m10 chart was going to take the near term highs, but yet again faulty execution. Both Entry and management.....Trader turned it into a B/E.

COMMITMENT blah, blah, blah!
FOMO and EGO was the problem.
Don't you actually listen to Dave when you are on his streams? Never take a buy at the top of the range.
