HELPFUL LESSONS

1. Remain Flexible - do not let your bias (”The Market MUST Go Down”) cloud the reality of what’s happening

2. Seek High Probability, Low Risk Set-ups
(In this case, we had the trend, resistance, and a doji working in our favor, and were risking 2 points to play for 8 points)

3. Take Your Stop-Loss when the Trade Fails
(You would have been in a worse situation if you stubbornly held short into the sudden 10-point rally)
(In fact, some of the largest swings occur AFTER a high-probability set-ups has failed … I call this “Popped Stops”)

4.  “Anything Can Happen” in the Market (Mark Douglas)
Even the best set-ups can … and sometimes do… fail and that’s perfectly fine as long as you control risk.
Don’t blame FII’s ,Global Market  or Mutual Funds– trading is a game of probabilities instead of certainties.
