Great job today!!!
Stop killing yourself for taking smaller profits. I don't remember his name but one of the famous traders who made over $100M in trading said that he still didn't find perfect exit strategy that would give him a max profit every time. You made money you called nice pivots. What else do you need? Just keep it this way stay green then you can try to get more profit by staying longer or by taking more trades. You can't get the whole run every time. It's the same like taking loosing trades. Like you always say "It's ok to be wrong" and take smaller profit.

You are right. It is better to be green than right.
I had a pretty good week overall with my best week in about a month. SHOULD not have been trading Monday with so little sleep and everyone sick. Lesson learned.
You were smart for staying away from Market when hungover.

One friend of mine in US army. He got back from South Korea for 20 days after a year. I thought that was a good reason to have some fun. I didn't feel like I was really drunk last night, but morning was really rough. I guess I'm getting old. Haha...
Yes, one beer will almost do it for me these days.. Too many years as an binge drinker I guess.
It is good to go out and tie one on every once in a while though. I miss having beers with friends, or really just friends. haha... Kids definitely change your life.

I know a trader that uses a different method to arrive at similar trades as you do.....he always exits at the 38% reverse fib....its a conservative exit for him and he would rather take his profit there than wait for some kind of runner/breakout. Just a thought.

I trade TF as well and recently have been profitable by eliminating stops, or rather, using the NQ in the opposite direction as a type of a stop. It has helped me eliminate losers in TF and stay on a trade while the bots are doing the stop and run.
