Long 4 @ 1392.50 at swing structure. Expecting a flat, non eventful close. Added 1 @ 1390.25. Full 3 point stop hit on all near low tick of the day 89.50.
Lessons here:
Greed driven, higher risk entry with only 5 minutes left in cash session?
Full sizing, again with only 5 minutes in the day?
Adding into weakness!
Just cut it immediately when it breaks structure. No shame in partial stops.
