I'm in a worst mental confidence state of mind after I'm up 1200$ after 10 minute.. I can't trade. Im afraid to fail. I'm very attached to my profits after realizing. No issue with keep with the move. Why? Can this limitation can be improved. In a way I understand where it came from.. 30 years 9-5 job and after 5 years.. I have my move in intrady day scalping, it's a issue to me I guess.. kind of hard to accept, that I'm fucking ,just do it.
In trading, afraid to fail is far better than the reverse. If you did 1200$ or so in 10 minutes and are afraid to lose it, then just stop trading, and your day will end up 1200$ in profit. There is nothing wrong with that. There are a lot of guys here who would be really happy with that. (Well after re-thinking, maybe you just mentioned that to show us how good you are...;-)
you are only 30 years old, do not worry too much. Design a rule and follow it. Train yourself as a robot
No, it's true. In my journey every time I tackle in issue I moved to demo. This emotion not popup under demo
I have read 30 years doing a 9-5 job. That's pretty rough! I hope he knows what he is getting into...
When you are in demo what part of your Plan do you apply in order to handle situations such as the trade management situation outlined in the OP? A tip of the hat to Robert Morse for his post from which this was lifted, 1 -What triggers a buy or a sell to open? 2 -What triggers an exit? How do you size your trades? What would you say belongs in a solid trading plan? https://elitetrader.com/et/threads/...solid-trading-plan.340340/page-4#post-5031706
