2 patterns lined up here. The 30m ORB was happening at the same time as HODB.
Entered a bit before the new 30m candle because price had just closed above VWAP and HOD and I thought the R/R was good here and there was a lot of volume on the break. Stopped out initially for loss just below VWAP and HOD.
Re-entered half size with wider stop below the EMAs/SMAs which were all bundled up. Price was over and under VWAP without any moves and I lost my nerve and exited at BE. (Cuz I had just lost my last trade and was worried I'd give back even more profits.)
Next candle seemed to be holding above VWAP. FOMO overcame me and I re-entered. Price took off right after. Good partials on the way up. Accidentally closed out my full position instead of half for the 4th partial (pressed the wrong hotkey).
A bit sour that I exited early because the price continued up and I might have killed it even more.
I've remapped my hotkeys to be more consistent. Once I get used to the new ones hopefully there will be no more wrong presses.
