Is much patience, my guess you enter too early, got stopped, then become gun shy, both crudes was ripe,

You said you just a simple nervous trader, lose the nervous, is a killer emotion
I be very clinical when trade, used to get very excited, or extremely angry, I like H&S and Falling Wedge as best pattern. neckline was almost to the pip, right shoulder is 1st attempt we tried, was not optimum but acceptable, tl,s fibs etc were point ot higher shoulder, even your DPP concured, biggest problem is the sma"s and ltl creaping up underneath, pity...
no the entry was almost perfect at 99.75
Giving up 80 pips profit was bit too much to re-enter so easily as you managed.
Monday another day, wish you a good weekend!

Lol! I love the plan my friend

I def gotta wait to see if this turd is capable
Of closing the week under the 3480 or so... If it does it def keeps me Thinkin we got more immediate downside... If not then chances are we are gonna get stuck in another godforsaken rumor filled range...

Awesome. I'm more of an all in at once type of trader (except for daily charts)...

But, taking 25% off at say the first 5-10 pips, gives you extra room to breath from the stop perspective as well.
