From Nearly Stopped Out to a 2R Winner | $25K Prop Firm Challenge Ep. 3

Описание: This trade took me through a complete emotional rollercoaster.

In Episode 3 of my $25K Prop Firm Challenge, price moved dangerously close to my stop loss—but missed it by only a few ticks before pushing strongly in my direction.

After the move developed, I protected the position by moving my stop to break even. Price retraced again, narrowly missed the break-even stop, and finally continued toward my take-profit target.

The final result: a profitable 2R trade.

THE BIGGEST LESSON

A good trade does not always move directly toward the target.

Even when the analysis is correct, price can test your discipline, patience, and emotional control before completing the move.

My responsibility is not to control the outcome.

My responsibility is to follow the plan, manage the risk, and allow the setup enough room to work.

THE OPENING BELL MODEL

My approach begins after the CME market opens.

I wait for a breakout and retest of a 5-minute pre-market support or resistance zone, then look for continuation in the breakout direction.

The complete Opening Bell Model strategy deep dive will be released separately.
