Took profits prematurely before it hit my planned TP. Tightened SL on the rest too early.

Well it was another positive week for me, I was not happy with the end result. Was far too aggressive with trade management this week and it cost me dearly in terms of %R gained. I have definitely made some notes as to what I did wrong and will not be doing the same again that's for sure.

Trades to follow ......

SL was reasonably tight on this trade but decided to close half position after initial reaction was not as expected. Price reacted to demand a bit below SR and went on to be a great trade. As a result of partial close, overall trade result was very poor.

Aggressive trade management resulted in a loss here but should have been a win.

Just one trade for me today .....

Profit/Loss: +0.78R

Entered at market and as a result of the tight SL and target, I lost some of the value of the trade.

I've been a bit pre-occupied with a big house move so have not had a chance to trade as actively as I would like to but here are my trades from the last week and a bit.

First up was an oil long ..... results with oil of late have not been great. This one was a loss, and then the following demand zone the next day I cancelled the order due to pending news .... as you can see it worked out to be a nice winner regardless of the news.

Profit/Loss: -1R
