    Once Up for Day - I go into Protection Mode

    Once I'm up for the day at least 1pt. in the ER I have trouble trading. I am so afraid of giving any of it back because it's happened so many times in the past. I have got to overcome this because I am leaving a lot of money on the table.

    Just Don't know what to do Anymore

    I"m at the end of my rope. I've been at this for so long and still can't get it right. I always take 2 steps forward and then 5 back time after time. I feel I know what to do I just can't seem to make myself do it when actually trading in the heat of battle. I feel I'm into deep and...

    When I have bad days, I always seem to play longs on down trending days like today and I play shorts on uptrending days. Makes for a bad trading day all around.

    Why is it So Much Easier to Lose than to Win?

    It's so easy to lose. My bad days triple my good days and we all know that's not good. It's so easy for me to lose say 4 or 5 ER points in one day but I'll be damn. It's hard as Hell to make 2 or 3, more or less 4 or 5.

    Keeping things simple.

    This couldn't be more true in my opinion. I've closed out several trades only to see the market continue in my original direction, then I would always find myself asking why I let the small changes take me off of my original plan. The mind can play so many tricks on you while in a trade...
