I stuck to my monthly goal of always keeping stops in place on an active trade. I took profits from the overnight swing at an excellent place and nailed the HOD with the exit. My entry zones from the swing and day trade were both bottom ticks.
On both entries, I entered part of my position before the zone I identified. I know I do this because of FOMO and I need to be mindful of the fact that I tend to act on this FOMO by entering too early. It's better to not be in the trade than be in the trade with too much downside risk. This also caused me to exit my day trade too early, for a small profit, when in reality my entry zone was the bottom tick and it went on to be a nice scalp win.
