I’ve blown a good week in one tired Friday.
Not because the market was crazy, but because I was.
By Friday afternoon, my brain was fried. Charts all week. Wins. Losses. Decisions.
But I didn’t want to “waste” the last day.
So I traded anyway.
Here’s the trap: exhaustion feels like confidence.
You think you’re experienced enough to push through.
I sized up. Forced a setup. Ignored my own checklist.
Two trades later, half the week’s profit was gone.
✦ It wasn’t strategy vs. market.
✦ It was discipline vs. ego.
Now I treat Friday like a capital protection day.
Smaller size. Fewer trades. Or no trades at all.
Sometimes the best trade is logging off.
Be honest, are you trading on Fridays with clarity or just running on fumes?
