2 very big leaks in my game right now;
1) its so fucking hard to stay focused when im doing 2 cons per account. especially once the market starts to get schitzy after like 1pm.
2) i absolutely need to stop playing with the afternoon market. ive blown through so many accounts by assuming the morning signals are going to hold water after 1pm.
its always the same story really; have a solid morning, bank wins... then im like shit look at this signal, i should bank more money and get ahead of my schedule. boom im down small. ok np ill just toss in a few extra contracts and get back to even. and god help me if i do so because now i want to take another position with the same number of contracts and boom, down bad / chasing losses, and the market only gets less reliable and more treacherous as the session wears on.
just keeping it real here, this is exactly whats going on and i need to identify and address it when its happening, not after the fact.
