Improvement: 08-09-2016

The fomo/greed/patience problem with entries showed up in a marginally different way today. For the most part I was very good.

Some exceptions arose after having a really good morning, and I started getting hasty to get to full size, and some setups were motivated by having big potential, rather than defined risk (leading to adding size too hasty).

Proportionately spent a lot of time buying strength today, which is fine, provided it's the right setup to buy a breakout etc. However, it's not a healthy habit to create and need to monitor that.

In general: The lesson is that I need to slow down getting to max size. Most trades shouldn't really have conviction needed to get to full size anyway.
