[ Today's Lesson: OME ]

Stopped out of OME. This is exactly the lesson I was suppose to be learning.

"...Trend definitely negative (shouldn't we be learning our lesson?)..."

<lol>

Oh well. It's part of the game. But everyone, please take note on this occasion how I quickly gave up my recent profits due to:

(1) Becoming lax due to recent profits
(2) Lacking patience for a more stable price floor, or a more opportune entry point.
(3) Not being alert/attentive enough to monitor positions closely
(4) Breaking my discipline by not going with the trend. Even LGTO had its short term trend line broken before I operated with a position.

Mistakes mistakes, and I just made another one. In my mind, I am thinking, "I must be more disciplined." It's the difference between the successful and the losing trader.

Regards,

Rainier
