After the garbage trade on USD/JPY that went to breakeven earlier, I looked at EUR/USD and took a short.
This time I wanted a TP at previous week lows around the 1.05362 area, which would had been a nice one to start the week.
But it went against me a bit (a good bit), but I held, not because I was bag holding, but I held in the direction of my longer trend bias.
So price action did come back in my favor. So this is where I checked my greed, price came back to my entry level, and in my past life, after going through a nice draw down and coming back to break even, I would keep holding for a bigger pay day, but most times, price action would pullback against me even harder and I would be rekt and blown up.
Today, I was happy to close out at breakeven for +1.5 pips.
