agree. patience has always been one of my weaknesses. i keep bouncing back and forth between intraday and swing trading and just getting chopped up. have to stick to one thing, my brain is too old.

I have suffered the same thing - and I think now it is a very common thing that traders go through. We spend a lot of time developing an approach and then we move to another approach and so on.

One quick solution for this tendency, imo, is to have 2 separate accounts - one for strictly intra-day trading where you get flat at eod and one for strictly swing trading - so that we don't mix these two approaches together and also can measure performance for these two approaches separately.
 
Need to be a zombie when trading. Was going to get long at 53.50 and hesitated and the spike at open screwed me. What a mind boggle this is.
