Measure the gap
Compare realized R with MFE. A consistent gap is evidence, not a feeling.
Guide
Early exits are often a process bug, not a courage problem.
If the setup keeps working after you leave, the journal should tell you whether the issue is the target, the rule, or your behavior.

Check target quality
Review by setup
Write the hold rule
Name the cause
Some exits are rational because the target was poor. Others happen because profit became emotionally uncomfortable.
Write a hold rule
A trailing stop, partial plan, or target condition is easier to follow than the instruction to simply be braver.
