Beginning of the Week psyche
December 27, 2005 by Trader Rich
Taking a bit of a profit early in the week is good for the psyche. I find that I trade much smarter when I do.
That is the reason why I closed 2 positions that I opened last night for a total of a 16 pip profit. I missed the European open and gave up an additional 50 pips that I could have made had I closed out these positions then. I set my alarm for 3:30 am EST but I never woke up. When I did wake up this morning, the positions had retraced so I took what I could get. I may have not closed them had the volume been greater. It was good for my psyche to take the profit and look for a possible setup tonight.
I’m taking pivot points a lot more serious these days. I’ll comment more on them later but they can be used in place of fibonacci or to complement fibonacci. I might consider using both.
