Wanted More, Got...

...1 tick. I took a long off 1025, filled at 1026. It was from 1022.25 lows to 1028.75 highs. I had 10 ticks but wanted the 1030 target. I should have stuck to my profit target of 6-10 ticks. Putting my target at 1028.50, just under prior highs would have worked great. I moved my stop up to plus 1 tick and got it slammed in my face. I guess the saying is right, "you don't get smarter while in a trade, you get dumber."
