This was just a disaster. Two trades here. The first one was a solid setup but two things lingered in my mind as I took the trade. First there were 3 topping tails leading into the breakout setup and second, the trade I just took flushing so hard right after I got out had me anxious. So this broke out, stalled and pulled back a bit. I dumped it. Got about $32 profit. Then it climbed and climbed. Would have given me the profit I was after if I would have just stuck with my original stop.
Then it gave another setup. This time because I was weak the first time, I stood strong on it this time and it failed. Taking my original profit plus another $134.
This sucks, but I don't have a problem with it. It was a good setup and I stopped out. No problem. If I would have been strong on the first trade, this would have ended with a profit.
