Opened new trades missing key element: valid take profit targets, only had entry and stop loss.

And so the following day, I opened up a long trade that was actually not a bad trade to take. But I didn't approach it the way I should have. Every trade that you take needs to have three things. Every single trade you take needs to have a reason for the entry, a place to get out if it goes against you, and a place to get out if it goes for you. Now the problem I made with taking these series of trades after accidentally closing my long, was I had two of the three things correct. I had a valid reason to take a trade. I had a valid risk, but I didn't have a valid take profit.
