So, what we have for today.
1. I start to make lots of mistakes
2. The biggest problem - I've opened too many trades intraday, this made me emotional, and to be honest I don't like to trade timeframes lower than D1. Why did i do that? Lower timeframes = more opportunites, but I forgot that it's also more stress. Nevetheless, it's still good experience.
3. It's difficult to record video trading intraday, so i will stop this kind of trading and continue to trade only D1.
4. I'am going to restart this challenge, for now, after today's trading i have 245$ and GBP/USD buy trade, this will be continuation point of this challenge, still +150%

Best regards

UPD: this trade was closed with a positive result of +73$. I was trying to avoid of triple swap by closing this position ot he close of daily candale, but price went up without me. For now, waiting for another opportunity. Will post a video soon

You placed a buy order in a market that is going down.

If you keep the position open more than it is needed you are going to loose a lot of money!!!

It always goes up and down, I care only about probabalities of reaching my target of 1:2 risk reward ratio. It even could be achieved in a downtrend, it mainly depends on entry price.

GBP/USD update
In the morning (I live in Poland), price went down, and I could enter even at better price. Previous close was 1.28418, and I could enter at 1.28378 (4 pips saved), also i could avoid of triple swap, and it also saved me 3 pips, in total 7 pips with 0,7 Lot is 49$, really good result.
For now this trade is closed with a result of +185.50$, previous trade had a result of +73.50, and i could get + 259$
For now, I have 504$ on my account, it's +400%

Thanks, but I don't think that in this game we have someone who is right or wrong, it's depends only from traders point of view.
We have different strategies, different money managements and targets.
For example, if i think that trading against the trend could bring me 1:2 risk reward ratio, i will open this trade and everything i need is to find good entry point. If you trade with the trend it doesen't make you wrong when correction comes in the market, but at this point we both right until we have our calculated stop-Losses

It's a script, just print risk in percents of current account, place your stop-loss level and press submit, and it will open order with the necessary lot size. I asked my friend to write it for me.

It's not the best day today, closed my USD/CAD sell right before price went down, still in profit, but really worst exit point i had 1.32383 +64$
If I'll contiue to trade like this it will take a year to reach my goal.
For now i have sell order on EUR/USD, and as usual you will see everything in the video

maybe looking over your strategy and adapt to a stratgy that leaves the trade and turn the computer off and have a stop and target and the only thing most of the time is it is going to stop or it is going to target.

Totaly agree with you, I have a good strategy, but the worst thing about it is my emotional attitude to trading.
I know that: AVERAGE TRADER MAKES TRADE AND FEELS GOOD, GREAT TRADER MAKES TRADE AND FEELS NOTHING

Still have something to work on.

Thanks for advice, jgadefelth

EUR/USD trade is also closed with the profit of +94$. I have closed because was feeling myself emotional.

In total i have 663$ on my account or +560%

If you want get 100% on your account with risking 33% you need 1:3 risk reward ratio, if you have 50% win rate you need to open something like 49 trades to achieve target of 100.000$ starting from 100$
If you risking 33% with 1:2 risk reward ratio and 50% win rate you need to open 122 trades to achieve target of 100.000$ starting from 100$

If you risking 50% of your account and somehow you can open 10 profitable trades in a row with 1:2 risk reward ratio you will get 100.000$ starting from 100$.
If you have 80% win rate it will take 14 trades with 1:2 risk reward ratio, if it only 1 best trade in a week, it will take only 14 weeks or one season.

In reality, it's very difficult, especially because of emotions, let's imagine that you've made 11 trades and for now you have 50.000$ on your account, to get to 100.000$ you need to risk 50% of your account or 25.000$, would you be calm as stone, or crazy as dog running after car? And that is main difference between average trader and great trader.

I'am still average, but "A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor"
