Quick Tip: “Almost” Trades

Your control of trading is limited. You can control entry, exit, risk, and reward. You have no control over where the price goes. 

Friday’s short was planned well. Price rallied to a key volume level where shorting had edge, then reversed and went 8.25 points in your favor. Hopefully you found some profit in the move and tightened your stop loss. 

The second touch went a few ticks beyond the original stop printing the high of the session, then plunged 60 points. 

How do you feel about that? Frustrated? Here’s a better idea, feel encouraged! The strategy worked, just not perfectly. Find the positive view.
