It's the weekend, the market is closed, and it'll likely be quiet unless there's some compelling news. Despite the current drawdowns in my positions, I'm not tilting or getting flustered. Drawdowns are a normal part of trading, but most people lose money not because of the market, but because of their actions in the moment.
When a position goes into the red, many people start to twitch, change their plan, and try to "save" the trade—this is where the main mistakes are made. The correct approach is to keep a cool head and start analyzing the situation: where the key zones are, is there liquidity there, how the structure has changed, and what's happening to the position from a mathematical standpoint.
A simple example: if the price drops without a reaction, averaging in the void is a mistake. But if there's a strong zone that has already triggered a reaction, and you can improve your entry point by at least 1–2%, this significantly changes the entire trade math and the rebound requirements.
Only then is a decision made. Averaging isn't an emotion, but a calculation. Otherwise, it's simply increasing losses.
