This weekend’s “tracker data” lesson: TOO MANY OTHER TRADES! Stick to the process. Stick to the A+ SETUPS!

There will be times, regardless of your process, when YOUR process doesn’t work as well. I’m not talking about those times where YOU are off. I’m talking about those times when the MARKET isn’t cooperating.

You may not see your A+ Setups setting up as frequently and/or your A+ Setups just don’t follow through as much. You hit more singles. Your overall "R" will drop.

When this happens, we must all adapt and take what the market gives us. We can’t force trades. We can’t make things happen. We should be trading LESS. Sitting on our hands MORE. Not taking random “boredom trades”. Read about those here: http://bit.ly/BoredomTrades 

It’s too easy to say things like: I’ll just give this a try… What’s the worst thing that can happen??? This trade may work… This random bro on twitter may be on to something with his and ... Wayne likes $ABT so I'm in double my normal size...

For too many, especially newer traders, convincing yourself it’s OK to take an “OTHER” trade reinforces bad habits. So, don’t do it! Instead, stay disciplined. ONLY risk your hard-earned $$$ when YOU see one of YOUR A+ Setups JUMPING OFF the screens at you. #Daytrading
