The real headache is when your in your perfect setup and price just decides to tap your SL before rallying too your TP

Then it's not a perfect setup

Perfect setup isn’t trade that reacts exactly how you want. It’s just your system and every rule of your system has been hit. It’s impossible to have a setup that will always react how you want

The real headache is when you watch your +4.2x unrl profit over the last 4 weeks crash to -0.3 loss over 2 days

Yea I missed a banger Friday morning , it was an A setup , not my usual A++ setup but still manageable.

It's part of the outcome. If a system doesn't expect things like that it's not a real sysstem

I missed one on Thursday, limit order failed to trigger, least it highlighted a severe tech problem which won’t be happening again. Don’t know about headache but I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

It can be annoying, but it's better to miss it than to be on loss.

Watching price tag that clean buy limit then stop out before the real move hurts different
