NQ using volume profile and point of control.

I didn't take my good trade this morning. 60 points later, and now I'm doing some teaching to distract myself from chasing the market. Had the setup as perfect as I could make it, then I didn't take the trade.

All I can say is stick with it. I'm doing this all caffeine free at the moment so still in the easily forgivable period. If I'm missing trades, but also not trying to take over the world, that's a good exchange in my opinion.

Not taking the trade is great when the market is drawing in suckers, but when I do my setup properly, and I'm avoiding traps, I really ought to be pressing the button. It's all good to get some satisfaction from the setup process, but nothing changes if I'm not getting in and out of the market.
