Exited Trade At 3097

Date of entry: 18 July 2011
Reversed To Short At 3080
I reversed to short at 3080 for 2 contracts. The breaking down caused a lot of stop loss triggered. I don't have to tell you the emotional part of these two trades. It sucks.

Date of exit: 19 July 2011
Exited Trade At 3097
I longed to exit my trade this morning at 3097 with a loss of 19 points (2 points for commissions). Everything looked bullish at the open, but it turned out to be the other way round. I 'wish' I would have hold on to the trade. But 'wish' can be dangerous. I followed my trading method. This is the way trading life is.

The Loss: RM950 (19points x RM25 x 2contracts = RM950)

The balance of my account is RM23,075 after the loss of RM950.

Comment:
Trading is meant to be touch and heart breaking. I have been following my trading strategy (which I back tested). The market just behave wild sometimes. Every knows about emotion control when trading. But it is hard to do even for professional traders (they admit themselves). I have been telling myself that this is part of my trading life. But it is extremely hard to overcome.
