So this morning when market open, it was actually a good and winning trade if i taken the trade after there confirmation, but i miss the entry and it already hit tp, FOMO, i set po on that same level hoping it would react 2nd time and ‘assume’ it will close the gap. But got hard stopped instead.

result -1R

anyways seem like there might be another signal on ny session. now just waiting for clear setup to form and good confirmation.

If you get stopped usually with don't you place stop where it makes more sense ?
What is your stop placement logic ? Sometimes its outside of structure, sometimes inside of structure.

2 type, aggressive and conservative.

for aggresive, i just instant after i have my confirmation, rules align, and with fixed stoploss size, usually tight stop.
that is why some of stoploss placement make no sense.

for conservative entry is based on what you saying, my SL need to be beyond previous high/low. once you have your SL level, you will have your PO level.

of course, best would be wide stop size and logical placement for price breathing room. but i just stick to the rules i have now for data collection.
