Late Start, Early Mistake

A quiet reminder from today’s session.

I started the session later than usual today.
That small delay changed everything, I wasn’t synced with the market when it opened. The screens felt fast, but I wasn’t ready to read them.

I jumped in too early. I wanted to catch the move I thought was already happening, but the flow was just forming. By the time I realized it, I had already given the market too much room, I moved my stop further, hoping it would turn. It didn’t.

Looking back, the mistake wasn’t the entry.
It was the lack of rhythm. The market was calm; I was not.

Tomorrow, same plan: open on time, watch the first few minutes, listen before acting.

Because sometimes, missing the first trade is better than being early to the wrong one.
