Today was my second real intraday trading experience.
I followed my rules.
I followed my checklist.
I waited until after 9:30.
I entered with a defined stop-loss and target.
And I stayed disciplined even when the trade went against me.
But I still lost ₹202 including charges.
This time, the biggest lesson wasn’t about controlling my emotions.
It was about improving my technical analysis.
My entry at ₹620, stop-loss at ₹617 and target at ₹626 were based on support, resistance and a fixed 1:2 risk-reward ratio. But looking back at the chart, I need to become much better at judging the quality of the setup, the timing of my entry, and whether the price action actually deserves a trade.
Today’s lesson:
📈 Improve technical analysis.
🎯 Wait for A+ setups.
⏳ Don’t force a trade just because the market is moving.
🧠 Following rules doesn’t mean every trade will win.
💰 A losing trade can still be a successful trade if the process was executed correctly.
I’m documenting every trade — wins, losses, mistakes and lessons.
This is the journey.
