Sometimes trading is like stepping into ocean at the beach on a day with warm water, when otherwise all would seem just fine.....only to be stung by a thousand jellyfish. And I know when the Trade Plan signal models are struggling to find the turn when I end up with a winning trade in the ES.... Some days are better for trading than others.... or perhaps to be more fair, some days would have done better in some other Trade Plan than the one I use to satisfaction on most other days.... but losses were still smaller than gains, so no reason to be anything but positive going forward into the week. Stay focused on the trade management aspect of the Plan. Limit your losses and be sure to remember to limit your trades. With a plan of no more than about 10 trades per frame, I let myself exceed that substantially today, mostly just throwing money at turns that would not be easily defined... Be back to tomorrow, fresh and ready....
