July 9

Okay. Yesterday. Incredibly disappointing own goal. Up 2% to down 17%. Just take the win. I don't need more than 2% each day. Be content, move on.

Biggest issue beyond trading when there was no need to... forcing the trade. Being focused on the outcome not the process. Being hurried. Slow is better. Slow would've had me evaluating the PO and making the connection that the higher probability setup requires extreme readings in PO.

Today's Chart.

We are still bullish on all HTFs, but we are in need of a pullback. So, we'll get a HTF mean reversion in price or time. This is tricky to trade. Choppy to trade. No reason to put money at unnecessary risk.

Big move in the morning and straight chop since then. No direction. So, I can't buy a ribbon pullback because there is no direction. And, I can't scalp the edges because we're not at any extremes. I will continue to see how price reacts at support and resistance.

Biggest concern for me is mentally feeling like I want to make up for tomorrow. But I don't need to. Yesterday was yesterday. Today is about patience and setup.

Patience. Context. Setup. Candle Confirmation. This is what happens:
