Trade: Long the $114.40 intraday breakout. Breakout did not occur, so I sold for a small loss. Still working on the fact that I need to use size, and I did use size in this trade.

TP: I remember being infuriated at this trade because it stopped me out and ran .60 against me. I kept on looking at the ticker and I remember getting really upset. Then, I quickly reminded myself that trades like this will happen. All I can do is learn from it and move on.

Improvement: LET THE TRADE WORK! Even if you were looking for a 2:1 r/r, you could have gotten back into the trade again. Don't just long the breakout. Put on 1/2 or 1/3 size before the breakout and then add on pullbacks after the breakout.
