TXN- The early movement showed that what the CEO said about the semiconductor cycle was mostly ignored and this should have never traded down this morning. I did get a short off at 117.50 for a retest of 117. I was running high on emotions this morning as discussed in the opening lines in the journal, I cost myself about 55$ trying to exit this stock and not being prepared to pull the trigger as it came up on 117.
I entered after watching a full dip to 116 and watching the tape weaken at around 117.50. At the time, the candle I shorted did not seem to have enough momentum to swing past 117.50. Risk set up for the short at about .15 to .50 target. I was unable to get my heart down at the desk so I walked it off and did some breathing exercises when I got back this was trading just above 117. I did not have the buy limit in. I cleared all orders and had to take the bid resulting in .15 to .20 rvr(ugh)
I am working on being able to settle my self into trade by walking away long enough to accept my self doubt and remind myself that the risk has been put one for a win or a loss.
