Technicals: I was thinking of entering long 3 at the retest of 23.6% (86.54) and had planned to take it to the next Fib level 38.2% (87.28) which also coincided with yesterday's value area. The break happened suddenly in one 1 2K candle and I missed it. We got to the next fib level and I had the frustration of having missed the trade couple with FOMO: what if I miss the next break? I entered without waiting for the obligatory pull back and got stopped out. Error #2: i moved my stop when i realised it was pulling back and lost $230.
Outcome: Loss
Post mortem: FOMO. Should have waited for the pull back.
