So mad at myself...
I was looking at the London session ORB today (MNQ) and waited for a breakout.
Price hit, I entered long, set my TP/SL, targeted a modest 1:2 RR and waited like a good kid... For a bit.
Then, something unexpected in my stupid brain told me it would be a fantastic idea to move my SL tighter...
What happened after?
The price hit my (new) SL.
Would the price have hit my SL had I not moved it?
Nope.
Did the price eventually also hit my TP target?
Yep.
Would the price have hit my TP and I would've made some money had I not moved my SL?
Also yes.
Why I moved it: I genuinely thought the price would not go as low as it did and was confident enough. Stupid confidence, in hindsight.
How do you guys deal with moments like this when the market wants to give you money, you see it's begging you to take the money, but then you make one stupid mistake like this?
