  1. 10:25:57 AAPL L50s #4 R60c We had a break above PMH , and then the high made on the spike on the open. A bit of a re test was made, and I took the long on the break up. My hotkey had 60c risk attached to it and it was barley enough to get me in on this trade. I got lucky and didn’t get stopped out before I could get my stop down to where it needed to be. Held for a while while it did nothing then we got a great run. Sold ½ at 2:1 then the 2nd half when we were extended.

I am definitely struggling with hesitation. Order ready 218.16 at 09:34, I have never clicked the buy button.
Same thing on ENPH, order ready 26.80 at 09:34 I have never clicked the button. If you have any hint for me to go over hesitation please feel free to give me any suggestion you consider valuable!
Thanks man!!

Oh man yea I struggle with that hesitation as well. I missed TSLA and IRBT because of that exact hesitation.
A lot that helped me get in on this one aggressive is that I'm a lot more familiar with how AAPL trades. I even keep a spreadsheet with notes on how each stock that I trade opens, and how they trend. Today, when I saw AAPL come up I knew it was going to be my focus because I like the way it trades. Leave the first few minutes to whip then go in on the trend.

Honestly, my goal for this month is to reduce my hesitation and go for more trades. I only took a total of 16 trades this month, and I missed so many opportunities with my finger on the trigger.

Goal for this month for me is to be a bit more aggressive with my trades, I don't want to hesitate if I think the setup was decent (also I am ranking my trades now on how I felt on entry on a 1 to 5 scale).

July is over and Let's hit August hard! Full caution flag though. this might be a slowwww month

Great idea in making notes on stocks volatility and behavior, this practice could definitely narrow the choice to enter rather then don't! Same here in July I have taken only 13 trades finishing in profit but still I have missed other 13 :P Definitely next goal is to defeat hesitation and rely on the practice in which we are able to edge! Thanks for your response, is very much appreciated!!
