One can never be 'too' sure of where the market is going.
If one is too sure that itself is an indicator of the next trade being a losing trade.
Ooops, I just realized that I did not have the BarNumbers indicator switched on in the earlier 5-min charts. The bar 22 (not bar 18, sorry for the slip up) is where the bull spike confirmed the uptrend
As you can see I unloaded one lot where I should have loaded up more adding to a winning position (on the top of the same bar 22). Thankfully I realized this was a panic attack and reentered the trend on the next two bars which were part of a teeny pullback (bar 24 long).
Thankfully these panic attacks are getting lesser and lesser.

Note to myself: My each attempt at a swing trade is turning into a scalp. Holding is sacred. I myself had written - Trading is comfort with the feeling of loss, pain, uncertainty, rejection. Why am I running into issues? Meditate.
