Grade=D
P/L= -1.44R
Entry: shorting a bounce to resistance which was also the opening price
Result: Stopped out. This was not a good idea because the uptrend intraday was quite strong and I was going against a R/G setup that was happening at this level. I would need to wait a while to see if this thesis had any possibility of working out.
Why?: I think I was probably not really ready for the trading day, and jumped into something I thought looked good in the moment without taking the time to imagine the devil's advocate position and the market overall. I was also picking a top which goes against my rules.
