Defeating Paralysis Analysis

Trading can be fun
But my mind is playing tricks
And so my edge goes

This haiku epitomises my feelings at this moment in time, I am confused and do not know where to turn to succeed in my trading, do I pay for a course, learn a strategy on the forums or stick with the strategy that I have created or stop dreaming and go for a 9-5. It is clear I am in a dark place at the moment and I, therefore, need to give myself clarity and peace to get myself out of this ditch, has it is clearly affecting my trading.

I will continue with the strategy I have created and hope that it continues to reap profits as it was doing before, I also need to come up with a few funds to ride out the next month.

Sleep can be the enemy
Sleep can also be the friend
I've just had too much!

I have been adopting a sleep pattern in order to be more efficient with my time, however, I am finding it hard to adhere to it, I plan to sleep 4Hrs a day but find myself getting 6! I will definitely need to invest in new alarms and have some coffee for me waiting in a flask so I can speed up the sleep to wake transition.

lack of sleep can definitely be an enemy
6hrs for me is nowhere near enough
but then again I'm 49

Just like an athlete pushes their body through exercise I plan to do the same with sleep, I have been using some polyphasic sleep cycles with success but my flow got disrupted and I am having a hard time getting back into the swing of things again

Here is some more info on polyphasic sleep if you are interested, I am currently on Everyman 2

Neither hope nor haiku will lead you to mastery.

”When the time comes, the Way becomes clear”.

Until then, stay $ solvent, alert & centred (& nothing wrong with a 9 - 5 to pay the bills : a very sensible idea imho).

Thanks for the polyphasic link .

You're welcome

A new week has come
And its time to step your game
Forex here I come!

This week I am amped up for a good progressive week (notice how I did not say profitable, reason being I will be adding to my strategy: I have been fortunate enough to come across some good material that will make my strategy more dynamic and adaptable

Time to do a change
For my plans are obsolete
Holy Grail! I'm here

I am making the smooth transition into the world of fundamental analysis and I feel this new strategy I am working with involves so many dynamic factors it will allow me to keep in flow with the markets! As Jarret Davis once said, (slightly paraphrased), when doing fundamentals you will always get better!

4

It's a new day to
Fundamentally roll through
These trades easily

Am at that part of the new strategy which I call the Holly Moon period of my "Holy Grail" strategy, I am intrigued to find out what the flaws of y strategy may be, but so far I am enjoying seeing the power of combining fundamental and technical analysis together, and it is something I would recommend to those who are logical minded to do

Fundamental trades
Are starting to take shape now
Time to step it up

My fundamental learning curve is starting to less steep but there are still a lot of concepts to go through, this week I am going to focus on a 4 key concepts to grasp and turn them to consistent trades

6

I Keep On Striving
And I Keep On Believing
Success is nearby

This week I will be honing on a few fundamental indicators in hope of creating a few strategies that will allow me to be consistently profitable

7

When you are ready
The teacher(s) will appear
This is the process

I am back to learning new things/strategies etc but this time it is different as I am learning fundamental aspects of FX to give me an edge as opposed to TA.

First of all, get a job. you are clearly in need of money and once you're trading to meet ends you will trade in a desperate emotional state to just earn money. do yourself that favor and get a job that pays your bills and necessary stuff of a normal living condition and then go back to trading in your free time and enjoy the change of mentality. the more you peruse the money the more it escapes you.
