Well said.
Just b/c a setup failed once, means nothing. Any type of trading requires hours and hours of screen time and testing to validate any statistical reference.

Yes guys I'm aware of this. But I had always assumed this to be more valid of the mechnical approach. Not that I'm striving for 80-90% win rate or so, but I thought that by correctly learning to analyze the market, I'd be in better shape to understand these things.

So everybody agrees that on what I observed? Perhaps I can take comfort in that, but sometimes these things just sweep my off my feet and I'm like "eh, how could this happen?!"
