    Your comment is true. I let my ego and bias over logical thinking. I have chance to quit at even in small PB before break out, however, I still hold on for the hope of continuance. It was deadly mistake for a scalper. When in doubt it is better to keep your capital safe.

    in my view, The 5 minute chart is a PB of the down trend (US500 down for the whole day yesterday), so, the big trend (daily) is bullish but for 5 minute, I think it was down for 1,2 more days. So, I planned to sell. As in the picture, the yellow is down, so a PB then go south is my view. I sell...
