2 trades that stopped me out
Tuff day as took same trade 2x's and got stopped on both before it took off. In review i feel i used good R:R, obeyed my stops, and when daily loss was hit i walked away. My trouble is when i use wider stops, i seem to be wrong and take bigger losses, when i use tighter stops, i got stopped out but am right as price runs. I can't figure it out!!

I discovered my flaw of why i struggle
I'm finding in most areas of my life, especially trading that i reside in a place of fear. Fear of being wrong, fear of no conviction, fear of most things. This is unhealthy and am now embarking on a journey of how to gain confidence in many areas.
