Your only job

(Message to myself)

  • is it to take ONLY your specific trades. No guessing. If it’s not one of your defined set ups, don’t take it.

  • be an effective risk manager.

That’s it. I know what I need to do. I say the right things. But when it comes down to it, I haven’t followed my rules. No more of that. I will not have another loss from a guess trade off my process.

I don’t care how boring trading gets trading this way. If I do not see my set up, I will not trade. That simple. Now I just need to mentally get in the zone to actually do what I say.

Thank you.
