Most trades for me require most of the prep work with looking at the chart/figuring out narrative and then setting orders and walking away. Set a shitload of alerts, wait to see if I get filled, and then start the management process (once filled, I set my sell orders).
I personally find that my worst trades are the ones that I take spontaneously, with little to no analysis and get the fomo. Patience is the name of the game (at least it is for me) and not fucking up the management is the hard part for me.
If you find yourself shitting yourself once you get filled, you probably are either sized way too large or didnt do enough analysis before the trade to feel comfortable with the setup. Trading doesn't have to be something you spend 30000 hours on for each trade.
