It didn’t feel like value at the time, but then again it rarely does. Yellow bars told me it might be, so time to dig deeper. Two positions on, TP hit for a 9:1RR, runner on to milk any extras.

I’m not ashamed to say the frustration of trading has brought me to tears in the past, so if you’re there right now, keep going, keep experimenting, keep learning.

Next step today: step away from the charts, tell my ego to stop being a wanker, calmly manage the runner and be grateful for whatever it gives.
