Disliked{quote} Generally it is a good rule of thumb to exit trade prematurely if you do not feel good about the trade, for me it is the optimal entry as per the rule/system.Ignored
But it doesn't always do that. Sometimes it will roll off into profit - and if you cut the trades you miss out.
This is where trading becomes a touch of a gamble. You know you are eventually going to be right (assuming that you are, of course), but you will cop drawdown - possibly have stop losses hit.
When the next session comes around, you may be asleep and not be at the terminal to get back into the right direction and get your money back.
The end result is you cop a small loss even though you were technically correct.
The only other option is to not use stoplosses - but doing so will ensure you risk wiping your account out should you completely screw up the entry and direction.
