If you're lucky, take the money and stop work.

On Sunday, probably everyone rests, even horses. I did not work full time, as I met the cargo from the sea camp. Markets did not go densely and with low liquidity, in general, everything went more or less, once went into live betting by oversight, the benefit of my horse was not a leader and managed to close successfully. But to be sincere, the word live frightens me, and the passage of rates there from the point of view of my system is tantamount to a catastrophe. To my pain I remember all my previous failures associated with this stage of the races. We will try to prevent similar accidents.
More and more often I am tormented by the thought that I stopped, there is no further advancement and growth of professionalism, there is no profit growth. In this regard, I was visited by a "brilliant idea" to increase the size of the base rate. For the market I'm trading on, this is not the best solution, since liquidity is basically low, but I've repeatedly observed that there are craftsmen who cut with a rate 5-10 times higher than mine, and therefore need to try. Increased by 25%, respectively, and expected a similar increase in profits. Frankly, it was dumb to trade, I think it takes a few days to get involved. At first it seemed to be going fine, then a series of rather sensitive minuses, as usual, stopping, assessing the situation, well, then the trade leveled off. You could choose an additional 25%, but in the kitchen for a few days leaking half-turn valves, the core of which can not be repaired. We need to go to the market, which will soon close and there is a possibility that not today, there will be a deluge in the house. And I, as a trader, even in real life, prefer to prevent trouble, not solve them.
Over time, I got accustomed to a new rate, and after a little swing in the morning began to gain momentum. I noticed that it's difficult to start, but when the positive reserve exceeds 200 percent, the game becomes somewhat more pleasant. Today I was lucky in everything and always, about 30 markets were played for 5 hours of work. This is not a big load, but luck can be said sitting on the next chair next to me, which resulted in a record result. The last transaction was super-profitable and I allowed myself to shorten the working day using the "golden rule", if you were lucky to take the money and stop work. Today I also sum up the results of the month in which I worked for only 10 days. In a nutshell, I'm happy with the result, but after a break, the sense of the market is lost. I came to the conclusion that it is impossible to stop trade, but you should not overexert yourself. Accumulated fatigue will lead to negative results, in particular, noticed that they began to ache a bit. The eyesight is still in order, but this is the first signal. As a reward, in September I planned to go for another few days on an underwater safari on the Black Sea. Gone ... all the luck!
