I take it you only add-on trades (buy / sell) based off intuition? For me it's if market keeps going up, then buy only and leave sell trades behind. Only if market starts retracing then sell only.

Then I'll have buys at the top and sells at the bottom with price in the middle lol. That's the most annoying part to unhedge.

more or less, i try to get the old entryprice but when i see prices are moving away i will reopen and complete the hedge.

yes, the bigger getting middle is the hard part...i have no solution so far. only close them with overall profit or try to average them out.

to be honest, the money comes at last. trading is for me independence and freedom AND fun. then the money comes.
