Revenge after a loss

3 min · 7 steps

1. Step 1 · Loss

   A stop took −1R: that's what the setup costs.

   BTC 15m, Dec 8, 2025: a short at a new high 91 694, stop 91 736 hit at 07:30. That's −1R, what the setup costs.

   A scenario on real candles: entries, stops, and timing are from the chart; the behavior is an example, not a real person's trade.

2. Step 2 · Get it back

   Same candle: a new “get it back” entry.

   Stopped out. On the close of the same candle, a new short from 91 661, already 2× the size, and that one got stopped out too at 08:45.

3. Step 3 · Sizing up

   Third entry, triple the size: another stop.

   Three real stops in 105 minutes. With the sizing up, that's −6R instead of −3R.

4. Step 4 · Limit

   2 stops in a row: a pause until tomorrow.

   With the rule, your day ends at 08:45 and there's no third entry. Set the limit before the session: right after a stop you won't decide it calmly.
