Daily Meeting for Wednesday June 18

You Knew the Setup—But You Waited for a Feeling Instead

• A-tier level in tech triggered with structure and volume as planned, but was ignored in real time.

• Main excuse: “it didn’t look strong enough at first”, despite full alignment with prep.

• Ernie clarified: strength is defined by your prep—your feelings don’t override edge.

• Late trades confirmed worse execution and emotional risk management.

• Team once again failed to use starter-size, even though it was highlighted as the bridge between plan and action.

• Thursday’s mandate: no feelings, no edits—first clean trigger = trade. Log result or log the avoidance.

Summary

the team reviewed a clean A-tier trigger in tech that aligned with the morning prep across level, volume, and structure. Despite this, no one took the trade. The most common reason: “It didn’t feel strong enough.”

Ernie called this out as the root problem: emotional interpretation post-trigger is not part of the process. Your prep defines strength. If you change the rules in real time, you’re no longer trading the system—you’re trading your fear.

The team acknowledged that starter-size could’ve helped—but didn’t use it. Late entries once again resulted in inferior fills, tighter risk, and erratic trade management.

The challenge for Thursday is locked in: trade the first valid A-tier trigger. Use starter-size. There’s no benefit in waiting for a better “feel.” The decision was made in prep—your job is to execute or log why you didn’t.
