Sometimes the TF can just be a bit too hot to handle. Today, volatility was extreme, at both ends of the big whiplash. Often, it's the NQ that makes the irrational extensions...and lately all to the upside. But NQ far more manageable today .... and saved me. Was able to come off simulator yesterday, with profitable calls and small net profit. But have to admit it's been a challenging week. Stay cool. Keep the behavior governors from your Trade Plan in place. Not every week can be easy, and some just seem beyond an understanding. The market is based on surprise.
