Hey Bobby

You are hitting the setups correctly I think you deserve to treat yourself on that. Well done and carry on. The days of mighty success might be just round the corner!

Well it wouldn't be before time...!!!! But would you have taken that? There's no M5 trend.

Well it appears that I most probably would have. It is quite possible that I might have considered this a Wave C up as I can see A up and B down. I was a setup on m1 with break of AIMS levels above the Alligator on m5. Yes it was a setup without a confirmed trend on m5 but this is what we call the "Breakout Setup".

cheers

Quite Funny response there Bobby! :)) but it is true. This is one of the evil habits all us traders have. We just panic and lose the plot. We are all learning and must make this a part of our trading plan to routinely ask questions such as one evilmeatball asked. Why did I exit this trade here? if the reason was of the same category we should take note and make that our goal in the trading sessions to come to work on. cheers
