The set-up: I had been watching a down trend line on a 4hour chart (marked as purple on the chart below) and the 61.8% retracement on my 1K chart
What I did Right:
Entry: I waited patiently for the 61.8% retracement to be reached and I entered Short with1 and added to my position as the move pulled back up to 61.8% and burried my stop above the trendline.
Exit: I took profit on my first 3 contracts and held on to my last one until the 0% level
What I did Wrong: nothing
Where I could improve:I could have sold 2 contracts only at 23.6% and kept 2 for the whole trade
Trade grade: A*
