1 to go/SL BE zone

FLAT BE

I hold VERY strict SL Today. In a wild move as in this morning it can jump or dive a few hundred points in a split second. Maybe I even stay on the sideline for the rest of the Day.

Lets see

Altough the markets are heavy, the DOW and NQ are on the Buy side of my Swing lines on the Daily scalp charts, so I scalp them up, until the price gets below the Swing line(s) again. And with Y moves (and Today moves) that can happen in a few seconds again.

DAX still VERY bearish and below my Swing MA line. No trades in the DAX Today anymore I think.

No screenshots anymore later Today when it gets jumpy. No time for that during trading and to distracting now.

The Brain – A Trader’s Friend or Foe?

The brain can be divided into two parts – the reflective system and the reflexive system. The reflexive part is associated with emotional responses, while the reflective part is analytical and logical. For traders, it is a constant struggle to strike a balance between these two systems.

Being too analytical is also not helpful, given how quickly market conditions change.

It is also important to consider that our brain is a muscle. The more we use a particular brain pathway, by learning a trading strategy or using a specific indicator, the stronger it becomes. Strong neural pathways are great for constructive activities but can be a hindrance if you repeat a mistake again and again. So, if you continue to pick the top of an uptrend or get stuck in “overtrading” activities, your brain will not let you escape unless you make a conscious effort to do so and this can be challenging.

As all seasoned traders know, adapting your strategy with the view of limiting your losses is an essential part of the trading process and should not be ignored.

That is why I use the same strategy and MA lines for a long time already
No adjusting/curve fitting all the time.
In that way you will recognize moves/patterns/set ups.
