nav,

if I may say something....

I think you are too erratic in your trading, you enter too much on gut and first impressions. This one might be right but overall, the feeling I get from your trading is this. Also before you do enter decide on your SL, instead of doing like last week where you were hoping for it to reverse while it kept going down. You must realise that last week you missed out on a lot of short opportunities because you were long and were only seeing things that would indicate a reversal.

Just my 2 cents as constructive criticism, no offense meant.

By the way, I have nothing against gut feeling. I use it a lot but, I also have rules. And when the rules give me the go ahead I enter

Well if your reason for being short is still valid and the price has gotten better and you understand if this moves against you then it's time to exit then the thing to do is short a second 0.1 lot here, bring your average up.

Not here exactly hopefully nearer your line so your risking less if you have to exit.

bla bla bla
Nothing to it, but to do it!!! Stick to the plan FOOL!!!!

Yep, you got it. If not for the resistance I would say no-brainer...But 9700, Man, I cant believe it would retrace that far, but stranger things have happened. Got to admit, Ima little perplexed here guys, need some input form you this time. I would have thought it be coming down by now.
