The set-up: Opening Drive Play/ Break Down
Earlier, I was looking at at MSFT the whole time. Then, switching to AMZN. Offer alot of R/R setup for a break down trade. As soon as I enter, freaking selling volume is decreasing again. Waiting like 10m to see trade going my favor. CUT OUT my trade at 1.5R. Then, watching AMZN slowly bleeding 5 points (10R play) like a IDIOT! 200% total gain EOD if not sell.
Original, I saw a nice pre-market gap up. This sell off this shady AF and we also have FOMC tomorrow as well. - I was only trading 1/3 of my original normal size.
What I did Right:
1) Catching the right STOCK, sell off trend today with BEST R/R (ALSO WITH MFST EARLY MORNING AS WELL)
2) Patient and wait out the trade to my first 1R target and scale out first position
What I did Wrong:
1) Go half size is OK - Market was SHADY.
2) While choosing best R/R entries to play out. I DID NOT RESPECT MY RISK AT ALL, I COULD HOLD THE LAST POSITION AND DRIVE IT OUT (Reason, volume are decreasing)
3) LEFT SO MUCH MONEY IN THE TABLE (BECAUSE NOT RESPECT MY ORIGINAL STOP LOSS)
Where I could improve:
Always respect my STOP LOSS AND REWARD TARGET (ATLEAST 2R please)
Trade grade: C
