Yep, but mostly, I did not get out and reversed when I KNEW I had to, that is what happen when you leave control out of the door
apart from the obvious..why did you enter when you did..and why did you exit..when you did if you do not truly know..then you must adjust your attitude to trading..if it was just one of those freak spikes..then..tough shite..as they say.. shit happens
Oh I know exactly why I did what I did: I went back to the old ways of trying to jump in front of a freight train hoping it would turn around, instead of just getting a lift.
When you THINK you are correct you are probably wrong. When you KNOW you are correct, you are probably late. There is a bite-size nugget of truth within, albeit a nugget. Carry On!

i think there are times when you can do just that, but for me those times are rare...and i love seeing the "double take" happen... good place for very minimal risk...and sure i haven't the balls yet to just flip on demand...LOL
