{quote} do you usually trade without physical SL ? how do you manage the emotional side to trading without a physical SL ?
when I'm wrong I take the loss. Easy to say, hard to do it, I know.

I always add some positions, excluded when trade goes soon well, but when price goes against me I try to exit fast and furious with most positions I have.

There's no exact science or rule here. I must be focused 100% till I go out of my trade or till I have some decent gain to put stop around be.

I have the best ricotta in the world 5 min from my home....how much it cost to send down under?
It's a cream of ricotta, not a simple ricotta....I'm sure you understand the difference!

I agree with 100% focus !!but knowing "when" you're wrong is also another tool to have in your arsenal so you know "when" to cut your losses short and not close trades that are doing well but experiencing just minor or sometimes major retracements.

No one can teach anything here.
For instance also when I gain something I made mistake: I have gained +40 pips in one hour this morning but at current prices, 204 those gains are not a good gain.
I would have gained +75 pips not +40. Is this a mistake? or not
Simply I forget all these mind games and start a new trade if I have the will to fight again. Otherwise I stay flat.

trading like Brixen can give you heart attack . But for him it works as he has steel balls, large account.

Not as large as it was some months ago (#post n.1 this journal) but I'm doing the best as I can to recover that level.

Have you close your full short position or is it 50% position running?

no flat, seems like a day tight range , normal after such huge volatility.

12300 looks nailed on to me (as does DOW 25K) but it's dangerous to think like that.

Sorry just realised that the expression "nailed on" might not be understood - it means a certainty.
