2m view now I'm looking like a fool. how did I even not see this as against the trend trade, I mean look at this chart it was a lower high lower low all the way. I'm taking back all the excuses.

that drop was unprecedented or was it ? it's just acting atypical today maybe because of Fridays delay at the open ? probably not maybe knee jerk reaction to tariff news. Either case this was against the trend trade for me. But this was definitely ...

19 Mar -0.7pips 2 entries both were long first entry was slightly mistimed the second was right on. I'm ashamed to admit that I accidentally clicked the close button. If I hadn't I probably would have kept this going at least for 30mins. ...

End of week cap 12 Mar - 16 Mar 4 trades taken in total - DAX system went on a bit of a freeze frenzy yesterday right at Frankfurt open before resuming 20-30mins after London open so I decided to take the day off altogether as I specifically trade ...

what an end !, I was looking forward to trading DAX open. London open is approaching and it still isn't functioning, don't think it's a good day to trade at all but that's just me, sudden surge of orders when the system finally functions could ...

DAX Futures June 2018

I'm at 4 years and finally starting to scratch the surface layer of price structure (information that really matters) now I understand why for most people it takes 5 to 10 years to master "the art of trading". What I have understood as of late is ...

How did you find success?

Mar 15 -5.1pips today was a challenging day. I had a short going prior London open, PA was a little off from the get go I couldn't draw a proper trend line at first it looked like it was going for a congestion aka range but then it made a new HH ...

I can't "yet" properly perform the scale in and scale out, some days I take counter trend trades before London open I ride the London open fakeys so for those type of days I have to get out quick but for days when I'm going with the trend I should ...

Mar 13 +12.1pips I took what it gave me couldn't hold it longer as there was a ceiling Frankfurt high. Not going to beat myself up for it for not reaching the target. As time goes on and as I perfect my method I might hold them longer but for now ...

I'm doing exactly that but also incorporate "time" as part of the equation Frankfurt open , London open fakey every candle has a significance in the whole sequence or play and it's not random at all = every move serves a purpose. By reducing my ...

our charts looks similar now that you're trading 1m. looks like we had a similar entry good job ! keep on working the rough patches and polish your niche. I also find it easier to focus on the initial 30minutes or 1h after Frankfurt than trading it ...

My take on Emotional Discipline

If you want consistency be consistent in your approach/method/system when somethings goes wrong "ALWAYS" examine what went wrong don't change course when things rough. If you keep acting like a 3 year old and be all fickle you may never find ...

I don't think I'll take my studies as extensive as Jupiter did. Not that I'm being just lazy or don't want to. It's just that even if I do read them I'm not at a level to fully grasp everything. I'm pretty sure it'll take a long time to digest even ...
