Gabriel, thanks for the three posts. You are exactly right in all you said. I have learned those same points as well, but have to agree it is easier said than done. One thing that has helped me is this... Just as an edge can only manifest over a series of trades, and knowing those trades outcomes will arrive in apparent random order of win or loss and varying sizes of each. As you know, those trades can be returned in any random order and the edge will still produce the same outcome. I have learned that as the outcome of single trades is unimportant, then the same can be said of the candle movements within the trade. If the outcome of the single trade is not important, then there is no point in agonizing over candle movements within the trade either. So now, I set my price alerts and walk away. It is only after receiving a price alert that I act on the trade.
So I have the same "don't know don't care attitude for both trades, and the candles within a trade.
Grace and Peace to all.
