Being uncertain on a Monday morning is not unusual, but it is a mental condition that can be anticipated. Like the way I missed the first short in the TF when it closed the gap today. I pulled the order and thought I'd give it a minute to gel.... oops. It reversed so quickly I couldn't even chase it for a fill. Be prepared. Futures trading doesn't allow you much time to consider the trade. You have to see it coming. When it arrives, you have to be there waiting for it. No hesitation allowed.
Stay focused. Be the trade....
