what randomness?
if the engulf supports the upward move and the road block got broken, it means that price is moving up.
if they don't, it means that price is doing some retracement.

Possible GBPUSD move. Price traded into H4 engulf and has now formed a M15 bullish engulf as a possible reversal. Will monitor to see if we get a retracement down to the engulf then will look for a trade opportunity (smaller timeframe). Note, there is a D1 Engulf just below the H4 one, so it may melt down to that.

Uhhm 15m bearish engulfing has formed now but it is still yet to break the bullish engulf to confirm a down move. If it does we may see price head towards the D1 Engulfing

Took a small loss with the first entry as tight stop loss. Price then ranged between 15m engulf candles before breaking bullish. 2nd entry hit 1st TP and 2nd entry secured. Will see if it wants to run higher.

the 2 days range is 340 pips.
you will regret if you hesitate on TP, wanting more of it.

about having trust in any method that one uses.
as you get to familiarize and know the method, you will be able to see how price dances.
if you believe that it works 70% of the time, just let go.
let go fully to accept the 30% loss without fear.
so what, if you know down deep inside that in the medium and long term it will work out for you without greed.

until one fully understand that, there will always be lots of "what if's".
yes, it's all mental.
