Dammit! I saw that but didn't act on it.

(On second thought.. i was already late for that one.)
Don't look down when learning to fly.

Nicely caught that EG, should have booked some profits though, at least 30%.

Mind that taking partial profits if you are targeting bottom bake process is a must, its not an optional move. All my statistical research clearly points that on larger targets trader gains edge by taking partial profits, becouse the gap between being 5R or more in profits and hitting BE SL afterwards has lower performance, than taking chunks of position off on its way up, since you statistically increase chances to at least cover for 1R loss and fill the middle gap. Performance will be better on partials.

Yep, slightly asymmetric setup, trendline is not perfectly following extremes, but worth a play, would prefer to play this one with some confirmation on weakness of bounce from bulls or some micro shelf.

yeah ok finally agree. Through back and forward testing, i found that almost all of my setups go to at least 1R and without big retrace and thats the point of the pattern we are trading. If i go for longer R with includes going through correction, i remove its greatest potential. At end of the day i end up with less profit, because of following reasons:
1. longer time in trade - time consuming - missing other setups while looking at it
2. blocks capital (applies mostly to stocks accounts)
3. cannot make use of bottom bake process
4. having open trades creates a bias when you try to make new decision
5. the more time trade is open, the more variables come in which can interfer the trade (news, influences of other markets, time of day (markets open/close), risk of black swan)

I dont like BE at all tbh. And partial profits are adding complexity and a lot of effort, which leads to most of the points mentioned above.

Thanks
