Tweezers are an ancient Japanese sex toy. I myself, keep myself nice and bare.
Is this what you mean by 'rigamarow'?

I'm really not a hardass!

I do consider my positions to be soldiers in battle grabbing more soldiers to fight another battle though and I march them like a Captain should march his soldiers. Taking them off the field for rest and back in with reserves.

A good way to look at it! Most of the time I feel like my positions are that I'm sending my soldiers into battle and they never find any more soldiers to fight, and then they come to the edge of a cliff, but instead of stopping them they march right off to their deaths..

It is your job as their Captain to stop the bleeding! Always know your SL when you enter a position. Never just enter and let it happen and tell yourself that I'll close out if it gets here. 99% of the time, when price gets "here" the trader is telling themself, I'll give it 10 more and next thing you know, their down over 100 pips and wondering what just happened.

15m til my h4 on FXDD closes and I'm starting to drool!

I was preemptive and started my position at 6282, I don't recommend people to follow this. Let the h4 PA confirm the move, don't let me dictate your trades.
