Question for after hours…from a mental standpoint, how quickly can you reverse your thesis in the day.  I had a neutral/bearish bias and lost my first put of the day.  I managed the position well and saved face (selling against it into a spread, then legged out), but mentally it took a long time to come back from having tunnel vision looking for bearish plays all morning.  I find myself missing out on the bulk of moves on days when I get the thesis wrong and fail to recognize it and adapt.  Looking back on today (and last Friday where I was small green but missed out on so much), there were so many clearly strong stocks I could’ve ridden up (NFLX, META, TGT, etc) but I wasn’t in a place to do anything else until 3pm.  Thanks in advance for any insight.
