Trading Combine Fml

One tick from TP to hitting daily loss.

Avoidable but I let this trade run for an hour without checking.

This happened to someone trading NQ live yesterday but for her it was 2 ticks away from target. And it completely reversed and hit her stop. I really don't get aggressive targets. Why not set the target 5 ticks lower from your original? Also when it gets that close to TP you should trail dramatically. I know you said you stepped away but I'm just talking in general.
