I kept in contact with many of these for a while but even they stopped responding. I guess when you can make your own money you don't need anyone else.

Your experience is sad, yet common. I have helped many people in my life, sometimes in situations where they said: "What would I have done without you?" And probably, they were correct.

However, guess where they are now - all gone when they had what they wanted. Do not even ask where these people were when I had to pull myself out of misery. And it will happen to us in life one day, even to the lucky and arrogant "nothing will ever go wrong" types.

So what might be the conclusion for us who are willing to help? I think with life experience we gain a bit of a filter who is real and who is not. As in trading, we might be wrong sometimes. An educated guess has to be made and if in doubt I'd say helping is more human because even if we err, at least we will not make ourselves part of the problem humanity has and hopefully find some mercy for it, be it only by judging ourselves less for a reason.

Like I suspect many others who started out on here, left The Path and got sucked in by other threads with action and posts every 5 minutes, you have learned your desire for "action" has proved very costly.

This applies not just to you, Amin, but to many who started out on here and moved on to so called "better things". Just because you have been successful with a few Daily trades does not mean you can automatically repeat it on a shorter time frame (walk on water). Everything moves so much faster on shorter time frames and the shorter you go, the weaker your weaknesses become in addition to the technicals being exponentially less reliable.

Some of us, me included, have to feel and go through this pain and nightmare to come out the other end with a totally different view and perspective on trading.

Logically, I still don't understand why anyone would want to go from stress free trading the Daily time frame making 3, sometimes 4, figures in pips per trade, with a 2 minute per chart analysis at the end of the day to watching the one eyed monster all day for a measly 2 figures pips per trade (if you are lucky) and ending up a mental and physical wreck.

It all comes back to PATIENCE & DISCIPLINE.

I suppose many have become bored waiting for Daily set ups and have lost the faith and gone looking for "action" on the lower time frames. Especially in these times we are in now, for the most part, trendless and in very choppy/back filling conditions.

If this is the case, what you STILL have not understood is the higher order of time frames. If it is choppy and violent on the BOSS, which it is on many pairs, so it will be on the Worker, which it is, and guess what, so it is on H4, H1, M15 and M5.

What the inexperienced don't realise is that the higher order of time frames work AGAINST them on the shorter time frames. For example, H4 is 6 times harder to trade than the Daily, H1 is 4 times harder to trade than H4 (24 times harder to trade than the Daily), M15 is 4 times harder to trade than H1 and so on. This is just based on technicals and does not include the stress and mental anguish that builds within you until you eventually "crash" or maybe have a nervous breakdown.

In addition, what happens to your lifestyle? You become so hooked and addicted to trading that there is nothing else in your life. You are LIVING TO TRADE. What fun is there in that?

No matter what you hear, read or want to believe, there are no long term successful short time frame traders. They either crash and burn or move up to higher time frames. Don't believe me? Send an email to Jacko and ask him about his pal, Mark, an ex - Broker who witnessed this with his own eyes.

Amin, you are just a young kid, there is no harm done, you still have your health and your life AND your future. Whatever you lost in monetary terms, you can acquire again. Let this be a very expensive lesson for you - learn from it. Find out what made you do it and confront it and ask what made you give in to it. Ask why didn't you consider the alternatives, options, risks etc.
Whatever you do from now on, do not repeat this mistake.

Many of you still do not believe that trading searches out who you really are and digs deep down to find your REAL character, temprament and personality. This is a tough and expensive way of finding your REAL you, but you will become a better person for it - PROVIDING you can learn from these mistakes.

The times we are in now, consolidation, choppy and back filling conditions are here to test our resolve as traders. We can either believe we can walk on water and continue trading and lose everything we have or, we can stand back and watch those walking on water drown while we wait, PATIENTLY and with DISCIPLINE. We will wait for the markets to set up on the BOSS first and then on the Worker and we will know when to trade.

The markets are cyclic in nature, always have been and always will be - Why? Because they are driven by emotions, human emotions who themselves are cyclic in nature.

PATIENCE and DISCIPLINE will always reward those who wait for the opportunity to present itself.

PATIENCE and DISCIPLINE will preserve and keep your capital safe (# 1 Rule and top priority)

PATIENCE and DISCIPLINE will keep you in a sound mind and healthy body.

PATIENCE and DISCIPLINE are the foundations of every successful trader.

PATIENCE and DISCIPLINE will make you a better and stronger person.

I TRADE TO LIVE - why do you trade?

OK, I've got off my soapbox.

Amin, it would be good for you, (get it off your chest) and for others in, or contemplating your position, to tell us what made you do this, what went through your mind, why you ignored the risks, why you ignored everything we were teaching you on here etc. Please do this.

However, this (previous thread) is the main course content (or THE PATH as we call it)

thanks Suran. no i didnt know there was another thread. im not sure im at that level yet though. im going to carry on with this thread i think, untill i can show some good understanding and some profitable trades using Strat's method.

thanks for the welcome btw. much appreciated.

P.S. i would like to say though, my curiosity got the better of me and i went back a few more pages and noticed one of Strat's post talking about some of the earlier members seemingly doing a Smash & Grab on him on his very unselfish time he has spent on here. so sorry to see that after all the input from yourself people you wouldnt expect it from are the worst culprits. i feel your pain as being a good hearted person like yourself, i have lost count of the number of times i have been trodden on too.....ive always learned from these experiences and unfortunately, just dont trust so easily anymore....anyway, looking forward to finishing this thread and hopefully take my trading to another level.....

Cheers...

Its good that you do your home work before participating with the new thread, However Strat has a different way of teaching. He values students participation a lot. Participating while you learning will greatly expedite your learning curve. so any thing your don't understand here..... ask in the new thread.

Hi Strat,

a quick question, on your explanation, you were always talked about the moth/week and day time frames. But now I see you are on 5M time frame.
Do you still apply the Moth/week and 5M time frame or is it 1H 15M and 5M (1H to be the BB, 15M to be the Boss etc)

thanks in advance

Hi, welcome to this PATH. The month/week and day time frames strategy is the the basic and foundation of the Strat's method for stress free trading. It will always be in used by us.

M5 is introduced for us to hasten our learning process. So that we won't feel so boring.

His method looks simple but not easy to master. So, if you are interested to be successful using this method, spend sometime reading through this thread, then proceed to the new thread. It will definitely worth the effort.

Thank you.
