Actual Development
Even though F closed down it closed less than confident. G closed higher and H took out my stop before closing lower. Even an entry short off that would not have been good as price kept trading higher.
Good points
- Taking a chance
- 3rd loss in a row but still ALIVE! Now let’s let the magic of profit factor make up for these losses.
Bad Points
- Profile showed price was making HHs so at the time the higher likelihood was for a sustained auction
- Got biased
- Uptrend 3/3 and open sentiment
- Prev. day closing near its high
- Should’ve included VAH Reversal in prep
