Especially new layers that are not sufficiently "spaced" apart from the previous leg. IMO, it is the size of positions - rather than the degree of a particular move - that usually causes serious hits to the accounts of most traders. Some cautious traders develop rules or indicators that require the new leg to be moving in the right direction before adding on. This hopefully eliminates mindlessly trying to catch a falling knife or mindlessly trying to short the Space Shuttle. RBB Seth, you are wise to be thoughtful and cautious about adding volume.
