Closed near entry

A result of almost nothing, what it is easy to conclude from it, and the row it produces in a journal that records causes rather than outcomes.

The trade closed at 2,510 against an entry of 2,512.

The result

Two dollars on 0.01 lot, so two dollars in total, against nine that were at risk.

That is roughly a fifth of the risk taken, which in any practical sense is flat. The day neither cost money nor made any.

Two dollars is not a win. It is a trade that ended where it started.

A loss argues with you. A flat result does not, and that is what makes it worth stopping on.
