AN EMPTY ROCKET
Today, I missed an absolutely great trade, because I was sleeping. This was a 109 pips winning trade that rocketed off without it's payload... me.
The *PERFECT* trade setup formed at 2:00am CST (Chicago time), while I was out cold. Hey! I am not a robot. I need some sleep every now and and again! Well, when the trading room opened at 3:00am, I saw it, and decided to wait for a retracement.
As I write this at 5:38am, I am still waiting for that retracement. Yes 2.5 hours and...nothing. Here is a quick tip to those of you that want to be traders, or those of you that are not consistently profitable traders: Learn to wait for your setups. Traders make very good money waiting for the exact trade setup to occur.
Ah well....Another trade will come along.
Final post for today.
After sitting in front of 3 trading screens since 3 am, I called it quits at about 8:30am.
