【Review of the Day I Lost】Before entering, while holding, and before cutting loss
On the night you lose, write out all the reasons, and isn’t it true that the next day nothing is decided? What should you do to narrow things down?
When the methods, holdings, and stop-loss issues mix, you feel like changing the entire set of rules every time.
Good evening!
This is Masashi^^
? [Review of a losing day] Separate before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss
When you look at the chart on a losing night,
everything seems to have gone wrong.
Then you want to change the method, the setup, the time,
and even the mental state all at once.
But in reality,
often only one place collapsed.
GOLD can be used to avoid summarizing losses as a result, and to search for where to fix before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss.
? Don’t reflect losses on one single chart
When you look at the completed chart,
it’s easy to see the correct entry and exit.
Hide the results and only confirm [could this have been the wall just before this place at that time?].
But in actual practice, the information seen before entering,
the information that increased while holding, and the uncertainties before stop-loss exist separately.
So the reflection should start with [what facts could be seen before entering?]
Mixing these three leads to too many causes and you can’t decide what to fix next.
First, along the timeline, divide judgments into three categories.
Divide losses not as a single result, but into three judgment moments.
To narrow down what to fix, reflect in chronological order.
? A losing day’s record kept ending as a monologue of reflection
Next I’ll be careful, you write, and close. I did that for months.
The next week the same thing collapses at the same place, so I write the same sentence again.
Because I hadn’t decided what to fix, there was no way to fix it.
It wasn’t the amount of reflection that was the problem; it was the lack of proper segmentation.
Don’t look at losses as one block; split into before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss.
? Reclaim the facts observed before entering
First, write only the facts you actually observed before placing the order.
The location, the immediate trend,
whether the stop-loss level remained in the same terms as at the time.
Reasons added after reviewing the results should be removed at this stage.
If the pre-entry explanation was brief,
the next place to fix is not the method but the pre-check.
Only keep the facts that can be explained even if the outcome is hidden.
Removing post-hoc analysis reveals the confirmations that were missing at the time.
? Find only what you changed while holding
Next, look at the moment you changed the initial plan while holding.
You extended it, broadened the stop-loss, added another justification.
Even if the pre-entry judgment wasn’t bad,
changing the plan while holding will yield a different result.
Return to the GOLD approach, and record the initial assumption and the mid-course changes separately.
Even if the entry is the same, if you changed the plan while holding, it’s a different trade.
What to look at is whether the market changed, or if you changed the plan for your own reasons.
✅ How to put into words the one minute before stop-loss
Finally, write what you were thinking just before the stop-loss.
It might go back, I want to wait a little longer,
once you’ve come this far, you can’t cut.
Compare this place with the initial stop-loss level you set.
Next time, if the same words appear, decide to return to the plan.
This is how you use the review.
Uncertainty before the stop-loss becomes a warning you can use in the next attempt.
Don’t blame your emotions; identify which words signaled a plan change.
? For those who regress to the same loss even after reflection
Every time you write a long reflection,
the next time you collapse at the same place.
With each loss you change your method,
and there is no record to compare changes.
Only look at entry, and don’t reflect on holding and pre-stop-loss.
Such people need a teaching that organizes judgments in time order before increasing knowledge.
Rather than increasing the amount of reflection, narrow the next fix to one stage.
Use GOLD to divide losses into units you can correct yourself.
? Rather than long reflections, decide one point to fix
If you explain the current use as is,
you write all the causes of the loss at night,
and the next day ends without deciding what to change.
If you continue like this, the issues of method, holding, and stop-loss will mix,
and you will end up changing the entire set of rules each time.
Therefore, divide into before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss,
and shift to a form where you pick only the first collapsing point.
In the records, if you use three columns,
you can see at which stage the same type of loss recurs.
Try one corrective item per week,
and if you don’t add other tasks,
you can compare changes under the same conditions.
The numbers you look at after purchase are not just profits. Deciding one point to fix is also a meaningful change.
Weekly check: by recording in three columns, you can see at which stage the same type of loss recurs, and compare the same scene the following week.
? Do you need a way to split reflection into next actions?
This is especially true for those who continually reflect, yet
collapse again with the same holding or stop-loss.
In practice, before changing the method from the results, you can create a change that identifies exactly which part of the judgment to fix.
The purpose of the entry is not a new method, but to learn how to divide your losses into units you can fix.
To start, divide your most recent losses into three time periods,
and mark the place where the plan first changed; that’s enough.
On the other hand, don’t claim improvement just by reading materials;
before the next attempt, check that you will try one item.
If your personal difficulties align with the stage of “Review of the day you lost” divided into before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss, then the reason you need GOLD is clear.
Purchase decision: If you repeatedly reflect yet the next time you collapse at the same holding or stop-loss, compare based on daily actions, not function names.
⚠ Be honest in what you write
This isn’t about reducing losses.
There are days when none of the three areas is problematic.
What changes is that you won’t repeat the same thing in the same place.
? One thing to change starting today
So, for those who keep reflecting yet
collapse again with the same holding or stop-loss,
which should you change first tomorrow?
This is best started by dividing the most recent losses into three time segments and marking the place where the plan first changed.
The reflection with GOLD is not about gathering many reasons for the loss.
Separate into before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss,
and find where the initial plan first broke down.
If only one place to fix exists, you can try it on the next attempt.
You don’t need to change everything.
If reflections lead you back to the same loss,
you need to change the method of segmentation, not the amount of reflection.
If you need a method to turn your losses into the next action, please check GOLD’s details ^^
If you’re repeating the hesitation of “Review of the day you lost” divided into before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss, before waiting for the next market, decide the order in which to use GOLD’s special薬.
Purchase pre-check for “Review of the day you lost” divided into before entry, while holding, and before stop-loss: Decide one thing you want to reduce from your current judgment, not what to increase with GOLD’s special薬.
Thank you for reading as always ^^
