I came up with an entry plan.
I came up with a stop loss.
I came up with a target price.
My entry was matched.
My target price was hit at the end of the day.
I lost money.
Why??
I was too kiasu that I moved my SL to a tighter margin too early, a SL that's lower than the initial plan, but not a level that will make me break even.
Lesson learnt? Don't move your SL unless it's to break even level (protect profit), or to put a trailing stop. What good it has to change a SL from 50pips to 30pips? If I could afford 50pips, why reduce? If I think 50pips was a reasonable margin, why change?
It reads, fear.
