Forgive me father, for I have been a ****.
I shorted Cable early Am 1.9863 according to my method and setup. I sat patiently for 6 hours watching noting it was still short, so nothing to do but sit.
After 6 hours odd, I took my chart and adjusted a parameter, what known as tweaking something whilst being bored ****less. Anyway, I adjusted from 20 to 18 this parameter and thought nothing of it.
I sat for another 2 hours watching, noting how the market was rejecting higher prices ,just based on the price.
Then I got a signal to go long, first of the day, 9 hours after patiently holding short.
The pullback was swift, it looked odd, but the instinct in me ,and seeing the green for go signal on my setup , didnt make me hesitate, nor should it.
But upon getting my deal ticket back, some seconds (1 or 2 ) and tidying that up, the position was already 10 against.
**** i thought, that shouldnt happen, it rarely does. I noted on my chart it was breaking down, odd I thought.
Anway my green go signal turned red, market sell, some 3 minutes later, the price then was 20/30 odd against.
I didnt panic, but was ****ed off, this doesnt usually happen, not on this setup.
I thought for a moment, back to my tweaking the parameter earlier, from 20 to 18.
I adjusted it back to its original construct of 20.Upon doing which and looking at the output it was still blood red, from early Am hold short.
What a **** . Now im holding long which is , as I write 30 against. Wiping out over 50% of prior gains which would of doubled had I not ****ed about.
Ive put a hard stop in now some 15 points below current price. Limiting my loss to -48 should it be hit. But my setup still says hold short, what a ****.
What a ****.
Thanks for listening
