Actu­al Development

• D TPO closed above IB and VAH as a Neu­tral Inside Bar. Evne though dur­ing D TPO there was a weak-ish M15 Bear Engulf, it did not fail the auc­tion and what fol­lowed was a some­what medi­um auc­tion crawl higher
• E TPO com­plet­ed a RBR again with a Marubozu candle
• F closed high­er to 1.8R before mak­ing a slight HH in G and pulling back almost tak­ing out SL lev­el but then pro­ceed­ed to trade higher

Good points

• Wait­ing for the set­up to devel­op and then tak­ing the trade

Bad Points

• Not adher­ing to my exit rules. Fear of los­ing profits. 
• I start­ed to think about it being unusu­al for a val­ue rejec­tion around these lev­els (D1 D1/MN QHi) and I have seen price form a Marubozu can­dle to then just reverse. 
• Nonethe­less, tak­ing a ‑1R is not the end of the world. Either take the stop or take the tar­get. I have shown I can do this and over time I make great trades and have great results. Let the stats take over and let the trade do its thing. Regard­less win or lose.
