Using that stop method I posted to Tom one would have exited that trade in the 10:40 bar. Curious, I checked my notes. I exited on a market order at 10:39; perhaps the damn system is ingrained in my intuition. Patience and discipline are very hard. If you are trading well you have a bulletproof attitude and get kilt. Trading badly you have a bullet-ridden attitude and become overly cautious. The only way to stay disciplined and patient is to concentrate on consistency in your trading. Looking for proper entries, exits and stay focused. If you are not focused then take the day or week off. Missing a move is not the end of the world. It's not like "I coulda bought DELL at $70". Every day is a fresh start in SnPs.
