OT - RE: "What went wrong ??"

I certainly made a number of mistakes on that play Sarmad, including those you outlined, but I'll tell ya how I really blew it:

I assembled too large a position. I believe I would have held my play this morning if it had been smaller. I became overly focused on the loss potential which impacted my decision making process and as a result, I simply capitulated. I had to get out at any cost!

Yes, a rookie mistake - unfortunately a very big one in this case - and one that I continue to have to relearn!
