DislikedYour first chart was a classic example of the frustrations that can sometimes infuriate a trader, Willem. A trade that was close, but not close enough, due to the R/S line. Then the next opportunity that you correctly dismissed (albeit reluctantly) due to all sorts of mitigating circumstances. And after you've walked away from it? It does exactly what you wanted it to do in the first place! Makes you want to put your foot through the bloody screen sometimes.
Nice examples, mate.Ignored
Yes, patience and the ability to walk away if the setup is not according to your rules is the name of the game in the 5min system. Just remember, there will be lost of other trades in the near future. Don't cry over spilled milk (or something like that).
Most important - enjoy the trading and don't get frustrated. It will definitely kill you.
