I agree. But it’s only through watching others that I see where my errors in mindset were. Following Brooks is a long way to get there, but...
S Thanks for the effort, sorry I cost you some profits!
Interesting. What was your stop(s), if you don’t mind me asking? Because it seems risky adding to trades as they go against you (lower probability...
