(rofl) sorry for laughing, but that is all i have left in emotion after this missed opportunity.
I also decided to post to journal. You will find it in my thread.....a blank space... (angel)
I should have know better..... after all, according to forum postings i am now a Master Trader..... (rofl)

What was your reason for closing??
Herbert

[Bettina]

My reason for closing was : thought to be in wave c and it could have been 5 of c. So when I saw the spike, put my SL to BE.
Btw, made -3 % since then. Missed trades is the worst that can happen to me.

There is a fine line between Staying in the Now and Trading the Setup with Elliott Wave at the back of your mind as an opinion (ungrounded assessment) to give you confidence and Actually Trading The Elliott Wave (ungrounded assessment)

That finer line is called, Expectations and Predictions.
If you count wave and expect a wave you're trading Elliott Wave. If you count wave, and Expect nothing you're trading the Setup. >>IMHO<<

The Difference between Trading Using Grounded Assessments and Ungrounded Assessment Must be Understood and applied. We Trade only Grounded Assessments and those are 3.
1. AIMS Gator
2. AIMS Boxes
3. AIMS Wave
and An Alert that brings your attention to the chart.

Ungrounded Assessments................Grounded Assessments

Trade what you think.......................... Trade What You See
Trade Elliott Wave...............................Trade eWave/AIMS Wave
Predict the Future................................Stay in the NOW
Trade with emotions.............................Trade Stress Free
