The slippery slope of moving stops on CFDs

It's a lesson I seem to learn and relearn, particularly with CFD trading due to the leverage. I was in a short on $EURUSD, thinking the break below 1.0820 was solid. Price dipped, then started to bounce, and instead of letting my initial stop do its job, I widened it, thinking it was just noise before the real move down. That small, seemingly innocuous decision turned a manageable loss into a significantly larger one, essentially eroding a week's worth of small gains. Sticking to the plan, even when it stings a little, remains the hardest part of this game.
