This is the picture of impatience and frustration for me. Using the 5 min chart, i shorted the b/d of the lows but was late to the trade and a bit chased. It bounced back into what i hoped was resistance so i added to the trade. This worked and i covered but not sure why i did it at that location, i was probably trading my P/L so got out when i had some green. I shorted again after spike up into resistance but stoped myself out on a high tic, realized my mistake and put it back on. I got out at a good area. The final cluster of trades during the last 15 minutes was just me trying to get lucky and make something out of nothing, purely a waste of effort but at least it only cost me a little.
