Day one of proving to you that slow is fast, and that you can make a million dollars starting with a $99 prop account. url

This is a long one - all of an hour and a half. I wish I had had this information 20 years ago. It would have been worth millions. And yes, that isn't meant as click bait. I really believe that. I also believe that if you are already going to spend ...

Topstep has live traders around the world. I would suspect that Dave Scott is North American based (USA/Canada?). It is possible that he's mentioned his locarion in one of his videos and it just didn't register with me. Topstep moved him to a live ...

One thought that might be helpful to you is that when it comes to building a trading account, whether with a prop firm or self-funded, is the fact that "slow is fast" when building size. I believe this is a thought I got from watching Dave Scott ...

It has taken 7 months of this year 2025. However, my confidence was spot on. I know where I'm going, because I have a trading plan that will get me there so long as I follow my rules. I am trading MES/ES, MYM/YM, and MNQ/NQ. I am trading MES/ES ...

Is it just me or did FF change the homepage and make it really suck. After 20 years, FF, if it ain't broke, please don't fix it.

There's some good humor in this post. Not often an FF post is laugh out loud funny. Good job, Erebus!

Why do they say that 80% of breakouts fail?

IB isn't strictly speaking part of the fixed bar method. I don't have a problem with those who use the concept posting it here, but please don't assume we all know what YOU mean by IB. Please define your terms clearly when you post. Thank you for ...

Not many edges are going to avoid losing streaks, even 5 in a row or more. Trade your plan. Read your posts I quoted today. You are becoming more concerned with outcomes than process. Sometimes two trades a day will be both be losses. But sometimes ...

You should only concern yourself with whatever fixed bar interval is working for you. I have no idea what exact fixed bar giga, Maple, Batavia, or Belgrath are trading. Blue does a lot with opening range breaks, which are subsets of the fixed bar ...

The PriceBob Strategy

Never assume any reference to a particular bar. I have identified dozens of bars across several markets that have a definite positive edge with a 1:1 reward to risk or a .618 reward to risk. I do not trade them all, and in fact I Mostly stick to ...

With NQ, I'm looking at long only, break of the high of the M5 bar that CLOSES at 10:105 (the bar that opens at 10:00 NYC and closes at 10:05 NYC. Long only, with a rule that allows the entry to shift forward if the trade doesn't trigger due to an ...

I copied what follows below from someone else. I know it was a trader, and the connection he was making was the spider and his relationship to his web and the trader's relationship to his trading plan (assuming the trader bothered to do the work to ...

This is the problem. Fixed bar interval trading is the solution. image The problem is traders try to predict which way the market IS going to go next. When their predictions are wrong, rather than accept the randomness of the outcomes, the trader ...

Do you trade FDXS, turnip? If so, are you using a fixed bar/Mebob-like set up or are you using your version of roadmap?

That little devil will always be there. It lives in your head and it tries to rick you into thinking that he is actually you! He is not you. That demon is your ego. You are the awareness behind your ego. Today, you showed your ability to distinguish ...

The PriceBob Strategy

I never have. I've never seen any real time trade from any trader from whom I've learned anything worth knowing. All I had to do was to start plotting today's open, yesterday's close, yesterday's high and low, and last week's high and low, and then ...

Why do they say that trends don't work?

In a recent video Stacey Burke said "The market only does three things. It can breakout, pullback, and continue to trend, it can breakout, fail, and reverse, or it can stay inside a trading range. "The market can only do those three things. Traders, ...

Why do they say that trends don't work?

I don't call them "attractors." I've come to refer to these levels as "pivotal points," or simply as "pivots." I do not use the floor trader pivots as TT does. I also do not use the monthly levels as I believe TT does, nor the quarterly nor the ...
