Re: What is your strategy when a trade goes against you

Unfortunately, this is the kind of "self-evident" stuff that supposedly "goes without saying" which trips up many a trader, newbie and seasoned alike.

Just because one may "think" his or her trade setup is "valid" does not make it so. Analyzing and breaking down your flawed and winning trades can help pinpoint the errors in recognition or execution, and determine whether the strategy was really worthwhile after all.
