Comeback King 

Nice...and good luck.

Thanks ... Good Trading to all ... I was reading your diary ... You are more detailed in your comments ... Still learning

I'm probably a little introverted and I think a lot. Putting my thoughts into written form really helps me organize and understand them. Sometimes I have these things swirling about in my head and it really does not become clarified until I start writing. For other people writing like that's just too much of a chore and gets in the way...lots of ways to skin the cat I suppose

Summary
What Did I do Right?
➢ Started with a Clear Mind …
➢ Good Start and Daily Rituals
➢ Waited as Cougar
➢ Didn’t allow myself to go into Reset Mind


What Did I do Wrong?
➢ Not Clear on Max Risk … Too much Adjusting during Trade
➢ Too many Trades at Once
➢ Didn’t want to be ‘wrong’ with CL becaused I was ‘sure’ of the Short … So Increased the Size … Loss of $1,000 +

How Can I Improve?
➢ Wait as a Cougar
➢ Hunt only Elephants
➢ Wait for Setup and Have a Clear Line to accept the Trade didn’t work
➢ Don’t Expect the Trade to Work … Pull the Lever on the Slot Machine and Wait for the Result … Whatever the result is not because I was Right or Wrong … Just a Probabilistic Outcome

Homework
➢ Candlestick Patterns
➢ Decide to Trade from Home … Better Internet
➢ Bring Food to Trade !!!
➢ Read more on Psychology … Mark Douglas
