Slow It Down
When things go sideways, go small. Go slow. Get clear.
Bring it all down to 1 micro.
When things go haywire, that’s the move.
Scale it all the way down.
Strip the pressure.
Forget the money.
Just focus on getting your execution clean again.
Because when you’re spiraling—
chasing losses, doubting your edge, overtrading,
you don’t need more size.
You don’t need more risk.
You need space.
You need breath.
You need room to see again.
That’s what 1 micro gives you.
It’s not about making money—
It’s about resetting your rhythm.
And slowing down?
That’s the most underused edge in trading.
Not every market needs your presence.
Not every setup needs your action.
Not every impulse deserves a response.
But when you're in the storm—
overthinking, forcing, reacting—
you can't see that.
So slow it down.
Pull back to your smallest size.
Rebuild your entries.
Revisit your rules.
Take trades like you’re teaching someone else how to trade.
Let the reps bring you back.
Let the quiet sharpen your focus.
This isn’t about proving anything.
It’s about reconnecting to the process.
And the best way to do that isn’t through force—it’s through patience.
1 micro.
1 setup.
1 moment at a time.
That’s how you get back to flow.
A quick letter to myself.
If it feels chaotic—slow it down.
The market will always be here.
Your clarity won’t, unless you protect it.
Till next time,
Abraham
