The objective is not to grade the P&L. It is to grade the decision.

Trade Review
4/17/24 $ES1! Moved the SL too early and set it too tight. I was in the right move but that was not handled properly on the setup. My initial setup was a sell and that was the correct move during the time frame of the opened. I'm struggling with my rules for the moment for some reason and it's killing my P&L right now. Again, ICT doesn't move his stop at all until he gets to his first target. Taking unnecessary losses and not giving the trade the room it needs to determine if it is right or wrong.
To make matters worst this lined up with my logic from last night's daily trade review which was for price to trade into the D+FVG and eventually down into the D-BSL near the mid point of the D+FVG
