1 mistake that I noticed on my trades was, I didn't really take the spreads into consideration, especially on my PO's.

Which was why I had missed afew awesome trades. Well, perhaps some would think is that really possible, to be able to identify tops/bottoms of an entry?

Well, I don't know, but from the past few weeks I had been watching the zones to work exactly as anticipated.

Edit: Will start giving slightly more room for the spreads in my PO's from now.

Let's see if that'll improve my overall performance.

Hmm...I wonder if I should stop trading once I get 2 consecutive losses... Seemed to lost the sense of "RISK".

Re-capturing my thoughts, and trying to forget about the losses that I took earlier.

Not a good sign at all, to be trading with an adrenaline rush.

Update: Working nicely, SL at BE.
