Whether we like it or not, trading is risky. Education, discipline/patience mitigate most of the risk, but there is no way to completely avoid the inherent risk associated with trading. There are at least two types of mistakes one can make in trading, intentional and unintentional. The intentional is often the result of lack of discipline, while the unintentional is the result of an error or an honest mistake. The first hurts our psychology and self-confidence, while the latter leaves us unaffected and often makes us stronger. Watch today’s video to see how I lost $3300+ on FOSL but ended up recovering, as my psychology was not affected by the loss.

One of the big market stories earlier in the year was Apple’s (AAPL) big guide down on January 2. That led to a big mystery – whether expectations were low enough ahead of the January 29 earnings print. I took calls into the report because I thought the stock could clear $159 if it was just in-line. With calls, I had defined risk. I don’t take stock into earnings because of the open-ended risk.AAPL was deemed ‘good enough’ and the stock gapped up big on 1/30. The 1/30 low of $160.23 became the spot to trade against for new longs. That level needed to hold to keep the move intact.AAPL then held higher and formed a bull flag over $169, which was another opportunity to add:With the big up move, I’ve been trimming stock and I turned my calls into a spread. This is when we manage the trade with a Tier system. Looking forward, there’s a chance the stock can work to $183ish in time. But as always, we’ll take it day by day in Redler All-Access, as we’re doing with dozens of names each day. (sign-up info below)Positions Disclosure: as of 2/5/19 at 10:14 a.m. ET, Scott J.
