Looked like a bear flag breakdown was coming so I tried to short it. Didn't work. Too much size was taken due to my failed attempts at a long. I need to remember to keep risk consistent and NOT try to make up losses. Losses happen and don't matter over the long haul as long as the amount lost is consistent with my plan. If my risk increases as my P/L goes deeper in the red, mathemtically, I'm fucked.
