Does watching live P&L damage decision-making?
Checking unrealized profit and loss after every candle can make a trader emotionally attached to the outcome. This may encourage premature exits or unnecessary stop adjustments.
However, monitoring account equity is also important when a prop firm imposes strict drawdown limits.
Would you hide individual trade P&L while keeping risk-limit monitoring visible, or do you think continuous monitoring improves discipline? How would you separate emotional checking from necessary risk control?
