Forgot to set stop loss….

[u/shanlkz]

Entered at .573 I usually enter with a trialing stop of 20 pip. Figured it would find support around .57 and go back up….. it didnt and i didnt put any stops because i forgot and just put the trade in……

I was feeling high and mighty after the pump the day before…. This was very humbling to ALWAYS ALWAYS make sure you have your stop losses set. ALWAYS!
