Just proves the point that it is all about risk management and all that it entails. Some lost today, hopefully a little, and others won today, hopefully a lot, and some were neither here or there, which is cool, what’s not cool is the ones that lost their shit and lost more than they bargained...

You know like you sometimes post I took 10 off the table, I knew it would go another 10, this is what I go for, I just don’t take it off the table, rightly or wrongly, that’s just how I do it, and sometimes I give a lot of it back, and on other occasions I am given what I am after. I am not...

I will abandon it at entry.

To each his own. It shouldn't matter IMO.

Nice place for a long IMO, great r:r

Pretty solid price action on 240 min, staying long.

Yes. But not paper, physical.
