Trade 1 Successes: Entered decisively, had thorough gameplan with entry & exit criteria & adhered to it. I did well in protecting profits after learning from mistakes of last week: Breakeven is better than a loss. All criteria in gameplan were met, But I hesitated to enter because initial break of my level was on opening 1 minute candle, & price action is often erratic, unpredictable, with poor fills which gave me pause. Perhaps I shouldn’t have hesitated to enter.
Trade 2 Successes: I had a good entry, I followed my plan for entry, and I remained calm. I did also follow my plan for exiting but not with the proper precision it necessitated. Need to have closer view of 1m chart and have TOS charts automatically align to be zoomed in.
Trade 3 Successes: I acted on multiple confirmations, I traded my levels, and in the middle of the trade I, out loud, calmed myself, just saying trust the levels. I’d done everything that I could to prepare and I came to terms with the truth that it was out of my hands at this point & I had to just react to the charts. Just let it play out and follow my plan, which I had crafted in thorough detail.
