Rejecting the AUDCHF trade (chf weakness) because
-it contradicts the GBPCHF trade (CHF strength)
-I'm uncomfortable with AUD
-the macd does not align

REVIEW OF DAY
----------------------------------------------------

I took the GBPCHF in the end. I messed the entrance up - I dived in mid H1 candle (because 15m candles looked good) and ignored the stoch telling me it was too soon. I was punished with price flopping about for an hour or so.

I started well then was REALLY struggling. My instincts were screaming to take profit off when I was almost 1:1 but was I got burned last week closing trades too soon I let it go. Because EUR news was coming I took 10% profit and went to break even. In the end I got virtually a scratch 0.3% profit.



LESSONS LEARNT
-------------------------------------------------------

I think I need to trust my instinct more and start closing trades sooner. I'm starting to see a pattern of that I'd grow my account a few percent more each week rather than break evens.

I also had in my head that if price can't break after a pullback to 1.5 for example, its not going to break until it pulls back further.

Well, i least I haven't taken a loss again - its becoming an issue as I haven't taken a loss in 2 weeks so i'm emotionally feeling like thats the norm - IT ISNT!
