Price action is extremely choppy today and hard enough to pay attention to such nuisances. .

the point is to find smaller risk entry. every fool can enter with 100 pips stop.

scalped some 20 pips on long momentum trade. from my point of view it was sure free money. Break out form daily open, then retest of daily open, buy, pick some pips. Good day! It is already 12-12 pips above where I closed my trade but I do not care. The day on this account is over.
0.35% today.

Things look like they might drop quickly. I am waiting.

I should have made the money but got greedy in the beginning. shorted oil on my first trade when it broke under 85.00 and had up to 40 pips and did not take even partial thinking it is going to drop. it hit my BE stop and then, I kind of started making other mistakes.
Lost focus and it was one of the days when my self control was not good.
Day was very choppy obviously. I noticed that candles became very large on average even by comparison to those days when oil averaged 500 pips per day. 15 min candle used to be 20-30 pips. now it is 50-120 pips.

+0.35% today.
I regained control over myslelf and was very patient, failed to pull trigger to short failure to break mid point but after PP held I went long and picked 20 pips while it went more it is not the kind of market where I let profit run.It is what caused my losses yesterday.
I am not going to rush to trade 2.2% back, will do it gradually and slowly with patience.
