I missed some good opportunities today then during the NY session I froze unwilling to lose after all the other opportunities were positive. I did take one during the NY session but left out my challenge account. TP was the previous Resistance and I ...

Now I tried my best, I had cold feet when the first Hidden Divergence showed up in the NYO then I started berating myself for missing the ride down. I didn't hesitate to pull the trigger on the second one but unwillingness to lose kept me from the ...

Same Friday I decided I'd stick to just 3 strategies, anytime they show up I'd pull the trigger' ! DIVERGENCE Hidden (paramount) Regular 2 EXAUSTION Re-entry from the TMA Bands and close above/below MA 3 ARBITRAGE Difference between the feeds of 2 ...

I have not been consistently trading and it's making the gauging of my progress a little like "Cherry picked" Last week Friday I took some trades, net positive on on my personal accounts but not same as the challenge account. (Thank God it's a no ...

Finally back from my one week break and I managed to miss yesterday's action and Gold's generosity. I decided my daily target should be 900 pips as this meant I'd be stretching my psychological muscles a bit and get to financial freedom faster. The ...

After trading today, I decided to see if I went one step backwards on the brick size I'd find better entries and it seemed I did. I looked back at my recent worst trading day and it seemed the catastrophe could have been avoided. This needs some ...

I like tat you have your numbers crunched out but I don't have a clue as to how to use this tool of yours. Would you mind sharing? Thanks

Yesterday was bloody for me despite the fact that it was a very great pips pouring day on Gold. First I got myself worked up the day before and didn't end up sleeping until past 2am so I woke up late and weak. Then I let myself be distracted and ...

Today's been a BE day. image I have bemoaned the fact that even the best of Renko chart generators lag and redraw but now trading 2 different accounts who have different servers and therefore the latency of both is not the same, I see it as a ...

Please what are the indicators on your chart and could you share if possible? Thanks

I missed the Triple bottom bounce this morning but in all followed my trading rules. I should still be shorting but since I spent 3 hours in a range, my psychological capital was depleted so I took the Support as my exit. image This result is less ...

Done for the day. 1% on challenge snatched 8% left to go

Trading Gold has given me the confidence to go on and take on multiple accounts like never before. I have paid for a Prop Firm challenge (10% profit target no time limit) Today I managed 1% out of 10% 9% to go. In all I se that I still haven't ...

Tweaking and fine tuning image image Gold's value per pip is actually lower than GBPUSD and this had kept me away from trading it in the past but I found out that just one brick of Gold worth 10 of Cable (in ATR) so there's no need slaving on ...

When I was happy for taking so little from the river, look at the deluge later

So far I can say that the market and the patterns we trade are always on ground but we just need to be available to risk what we can afford to lose to prove whether the trade will go in our favour or not. I just want to x-ray today's trade on my ...

Learning from my foibles

I missed yesterday's action cos I had to take a trip, but I thankfully caught just enough for today, I have a lot to do. Sure seems that Gold just respects trend direction

I didn't know Gold was so generous. Just one good trade of 1: 1.5 net is all it takes to smile home everyday in Gold.

Still battling the unwillingness to lose, perhaps I need a mantra to work me up to say no to avoiding loses that end up making me lose.
