Took a quick 1.5 points profit but could have easily gotten 2 points. Trade started to look better the longer I was in it, so I guess I could have brought up the target. Had an irrational fear that they were trying to trap me long and that if I did not get out at the right place, I would not only lose the profit but be in the red for the trade. I guess I could have brought up the stop but I did not get in at the bottom of the move, and was planning to add a contract if we went back down to around that level before going higher, but we got a nice move all in one direction without pullbacks which is nice if you are right on the direction.

Also, have a hard time going for more trades when I am up for the day, but if I see something really nice, may trade it.

Ok.. I overlooked where you said "verifiable".. therefore based on testing rather than belief.. you mean beilef in your testing/system...
Belief in yourself is one of the most powerful edges in trading.
