The trade plan and daily chart for LASE where very good. However, I made three very big mistakes. 1. I entered the trade prior to the open when there was no volume coming in. 2. I did not use an entry pattern. 3. I did not honor my stop loss, believing that the trade would turn around because I had a good trade plan. I was wrong on all counts and paid the price with my worst loss for 2 weeks. I cannot afford to let my discipline and rules be compromised again!
