Honestly I didn't accept my risk going into this trade. The chart says the real stop is below 100. 5 points was way too much for me. So I forced myself to find a better stop that met my standards, NOT what the chart was telling me. That caused me to mismanage this trade. Had I accepted the risk, I may still be in this trade, or at the very least, gotten back in on the pull back. This turned into a 1st Pull back into mSupport after a Base play. I make those trades all the time but I failed to recognize that this time because of my inability to accept the risk.
