Actually, I'm hoping to improve here. My main problem is having a bias. Yesterday I had a long bias, which prevented me from taking shorts, which was correct.

 

Today I had short bias but price came back and actually made a higher low and not much selling volume. I was too focused on pinpointing my short that I didn't realize this at the time, until it was too late.

 

Sorry, this is probably stuff for my blog, but I thought I'd let you know so you get some insight in my psyche :\

 

psyche and perception, these govern all our trading decisions. You will not take a grail signal if your bias is the opposite. This is currently my biggest dilemma.

Perhaps you should also start a blog... describing in it what you feel when you're in a trade, or waiting for a trade...

 

Oh and btw, I guess we should probably discuss this in the "off topic" thread and not here. My fault as well!

 

Fwiw, I would not short here, if I was still in a long, I would wait for 980.

Another one-way day, like I figured. Unfortunately, I also thought entering so late in the day wasn't worth the risk.
