Hard to tell what I was thinking, in retrospect. This was a shitty setup and a shitty entry. I deserved to lose on this one. Also... putting so much money into it was fucked up. This was a disaster on wheels.
I came in this morning to no good setups. In that case I should walk away or paper trade at most. This was money down the toilet. After 2 days of market dump, should not have shorted an extended gap down. I can't even identify a rationale for the first entry. The second entry was arguably decent. All stops were too generous.
Terrible trade. 3rd red day in a row. I'm obviously losing my mind, not just my money.
