This is looking real good. Keep it up. It looks like your analysis is pretty on point - that winning % is pretty great, especially as you R:R is so good too!

Wishing you luck. Will keep an eye on your post!

Done for the day.

I wish I could share my cent account here on the forum, but unfortunately FF rules don't allow since it can be deceptive (Very true = its a pseudo-demo-live)!!!

Markets not moving as expected. Closed all trades. I'll lurk around and see if NY session presents other opportunities. I'll be risking only 20% of the profits for that. I'll be going for only A+++ trades (as picky as a cat with my profits)

So far for April...

Little by little we will get there.

Counting on a good RRR (not less than 1:2) coupled with good win rate.

The day I stop using my Holy Grail methodology (i.e. sticking to my Risk management plan) I know that the market will gladly take all my cash!!!
I have been there several times. Hehe.
With my Holy Grail in place, even a bad month or quarter won't blow my account. I will rise out of the ashes like a phoenix, and soar like an eagle.

I now have to work more on sitting on my hands (as Master Alien would say it).

If I don't see my pattern on the chart, I will not give the market my money.

That saying "If not my pattern, no trading. Loyalty to patterns" coudn't agree with this more. If the market doesn't show exactly what i need , walk away. Your account growth is looking great.

Is your risk profile 1:1.5 ?

My risk is normally 1:2 or more... But I close trades (partially or fully) that stalls for more than 2 or 3 hours of entry.


Thanks for passing by. See you around.

April has been good... This is my first month trading fully... [since the Corona pandemic gave us (9-5 workers) enough time to be by our charts]. I hope this continues for all time.

Learning a lot about myself as I trade (especially emotions)...

Sometimes I wake up feeling I need to place a trade latest by 8am GMT... What the heck does that mean?! [---asking my impulsive self btw]
I normally end up forcing a trade (if you know what I mean)...

Going forward: I will make flashcards of the variations of my patterns or setups. If it isn't looking exactly or meeting the conditions of the Pattern no trading!!!

I need to do this right if I am doing it.

I miss trading!!!

My engineering professional work schedule doesn't permit me to trade like I want to (Intraday setups).

I am currently working on a trading method on the higher time frames: 4HR and Daily that will help with an average RRR of 1:3+.
