Took a short but got taken out as I locked in some profit at 11 points. Looking for another short but with caution the bulls are really trying to put a stop to the bears.

{quote} i brought my stop loss closer because of fear for news.... What keeps me smiling is that we had read it right..... more news coming in.... We were able to identify weakness.... and that is power
Fear needs to be removed from the decision making. Stops are moved only when a condition has been met. It's ok to lock in profit prior to news but only if price shows a struggle to move in favor.

Go an crush your next trade!

Let's be decisive traders! The market does not control us and emotions are for the loser. You have to take what you want from market, it will not give it voluntarily.

my mistake was my harmonic projection must have been drawn incorrectly the first time when i placed my target so it came back against me rather than hit target

one positive i have is that i have decided to record all my trading so i can go back later and look for my mistake to help eliminate it from future trades

but im still positive about it all so onto the next one

Tempted for that short but not too sure about the strength of the bears at the moment.

Don't like how it took out the swing high at 314 though.

Think if it holds 294-304 then we see higher.

Glad to see you back posting

This area may find some support. If it does I am looking at how the bulls defend to consider a short near the top.

Shorted with tight stop. Expectation is for the medium order flow is for a NSL. Immediate order flow made a NSH. Did not like price lingering at my AOI. Decided to manually close, close to BE.
+2 PIPs

I tend to be trading more on the medium to long term order flow but the immediate order flow seems to be giving out free PIPs more often. Need to be more situationally aware.
