This TF trade is one of the frustrating trade... Just closed one from 1440 for some profit.

Ridiculous manipulation in OIL, I got face ripping rally yesterday on my short luckily I held the short but my brain started questioning everything and forcing me to close my position but I closed it as per plan for profit but just to see it went another 40 ticks once I closed my short

I am struck in Dollar long and EURUSD short but I am sure both will be winners just need patience.

You stuck to your plan and took profit at your initial profit target. Well done!

It doesn't matter that price went 40 more ticks. You got your share, off to the next trade!

After four weeks of torture TF finally showing signs of weakness but I was not in it except for that TZA position but I took multiple 10 point profits on TF though and will be looking to short but I hate to short in the HOLE...I took a short in ES, hoping it will follow TF, let's see.

Got out of Dollar long and some Euro short. Good trade.

These days I am not even looking at charting software just my TOS mobile, maybe I am getting lucky.

It definitely needs lot of energy to break that 1400 level




Will this be possible on Dollar?

Update:

Still holding ES short but when every damn dip is getting bought it's tremendous pressure on mind to hold especially a short for bigger gains. But, if it's not hold then I will succumb to revenge and over trading.
