Great re-entry on break back below vwap. But atrocious covers. God awful. No sense of bigger picture. But the baggage from all the losses prior to this trade clouded my judgement. That is why it is so crucial to not exhaust myself on front side. Its one of my biggest weaknesses and something i need to address. This shoulda been a 6 figure trade FML. Blood is boiling looking at this chart. But have to remember there is no one to blame but myself. Suppress the anger/frustration and use this as a learning tool.

Thanks. You too. Being able to keep an objective mindset is the #1 priority so avoiding the beat downs on the front side that cause anger/frustration/pain is vital.

Great self awareness man. I did the exact same thing on this trade. Pre-exhausted myself frontside, and took a nearly break even trade on initial flush, and was hesitant to re-enter backside, and missed the entire move I had planned for during pre-market prep. Not waiting for backside has been the most expensive weakness in my trading, and is now a top priority to improve, sounds like it is for you as well. Good luck brother!
