Ugliest trade ever. Setup was a break of an earlier pivot, but entered right at the 6.50 resistance, which initially held.
Then, instead of setting a STOP SELL order I accidentally set a STOP BUY which immediately triggered, putting me on too heavy size. I tried to sell half of my position and made sure I didn't set a STOP, but then clicked BUY AGAIN.. wtf.
After I finally manage to get the excess risk off, the trade stops me out and I have almost -1.5R total damage. What a fumble mess, this is a clear result of shorting more lately.
