Something which is really bothering me at the moment is the dilemma of trading exits... this has been something which I've been trying to work on for a long time but I can't seem to get it right.

I played the Dow countertrend yesterday, the Dow had fallen heavily and I took this to be the start of the downtrend after weeks of bullish movement. I was expected to see a pullback from the bullish movement of the DOW and this was my signal for it. After the huge move down, there was an initial move up and this was what I took to be the pullback before lower prices. Unfortunately, I was wrong this time.. the DOW powered ahead.. it's shot up around 200 points and have broken the previous high!
