The Market Doesn't Know Your Entry Price

You buy NQ at a certain price, and the market moves against you.

That entry price feels important because it's where your trade began.

But the market doesn't have to return there to make you feel better.

I ask whether the original trade idea remains valid and whether my risk rules require an exit.

Holding simply because I want to get back to break-even can distort my decisions.

My entry price matters for calculating P&L. It doesn't guarantee where price will go next.
