Nothing is worse for your psychology than to nearly make your daily profit goal in early trading, only to give it all away--and then some--trying to get reach it exactly. There is no rule in your trade plan called 'All Or Nothing'. It is easy to see in yourself as weakness a tendency to quit while ahead while still shy of that profit goal. And so, to combat that appraisal, you find your mental state as one of being willing to give it all back while to trying to reach it. That is a gamblers mentality. The accumulated profits don't matter if you don't have everything you want. Don't let the desire to get everything you wanted to push you into trading away everything you already have. You're not the gambler. You are the Trader. ...and the business of trading requires humility and acceptance of imperfection and even dissatisfaction in your efforts to achieve your daily frame goal. At such times, it is critically important to ACCEPT THE OUTCOME.
