Going to have to call it quits on trading. Have spent three frustrating years losing money and can't see a single 'system' or method that is consistent. Haven't seen anything here either. Good luck! If in doubt, don't trade - 99.99% of FX traders lose money. Leave it to the pros!
Main strategy for trading business is money management. Learn that, fundamentals and apply it into trading, and after that comes technicals. If you need to take a break that is good, but do not give up. You will make it in trading. It takes time, like anything else. Some people will get it faster some people will take a bit more time. You are looking at the trading the wrong way. There is no perfect system. But you have to approach it as business. Like having a restaurant or anything like that. I keep telling everyone and some people agree a lot of people are stuck in retail mindset strategy and they will never make it in trading. You must approach it as a professional trader. We are not bank traders but there are ways to approach it professionally. It is not a big secret, nothing like that, but just you have to have right education just like in anything else, plus experience.

Trading process:

1. Idea generation
2. Fundamental analysis
3. Technical analysis
4. Trading psychology
5. Risk management

{quote} Try again with as minimum account size as you can. Just two two things: 1. Target 2.5% of your account to TP and 0.05% of your account to SL. Never exceed it unless you know the inside information. 2. Price action and fundamentals are the only two things you'll need to trade. Wait till price reaches a pivot point, see the price is moving where you anticipated. Take the trade. Compounding is the answer. Target 1% increase in account per trade or per day. For $500 account, its just $5. Try doing my way if you want, I know you'll be back trading...
In my view, shooting for 5:1 rr is very retail. Going to be a lot of losers, and a lot of big winners that turn into scratchers (or even losers) which is going to be very hard for most traders to take.

Linda Raschke refers to an academic study in her book looking at the efficacy of systems via their RR. Unsurprisingly, the two best RR systems, are what hardly anyone does.

In first place, was HUGE risk reward, low win rate strategies, i.e. looking at banking 20:1 rr and beyond.

Firmly in second place, was HUGE hit rate, but very low RR strategies, i.e. looking at banking after 0.3:1, but winning almost all the trades that you take.

I don't so any of the above either. I hit for 2:1 - 3:1, and invariably end up taking a good bit less (unless I am afk, and/or sleep through a good move in my favour overnight). But it is empirically proven, that the two most profitable strategies by RR, are the two things that hardly anyone does.......who would have thought?

I think the Idea Generation is the major part of having a working system FOR YOU.

But first you need some practical things to start with, then add in your observations to generate a reliable idea.

just like driving, you need to know how to operate the car to start with, then your intuition and “sense” of the road condition come in play. Combine the both side of the skill set differentiates you, a bad driver, and pro racers.

IMO, idea generation involves tech and fundamental analysis already, because it usually stems from what you see as price moves on the chart or at times of certain news.

Of course I am a fake guru don’t trust my words
I’ll just show you.

Jaunty, after all these years trading, what is your observation of price that you feel confident to say it is more likely to happen than not?

{quote} I think a way to potentially shorten the process is to start with a hypothesis, like a proper research in (science and any fields) Start clean and observe the charts without any presumption, and see if you make any observations out of it. I find it is best way because that “instinct” observation usually suits your style and preference in trading: time of day, pattern, etc. On the other hand write down some of your strength and desire, such as duration of trades, trend trading or reversal. Put them all together and start developing a strategy...

I started from here, I reviewed all the indicators. There are sections of Russians, they are also strong programmers. You can look at the Chinese, Japanese, and other sections of the indicators. There's a treasure trove of strategies out there.
Start from there.

A song with a hint, who has logic will understand what I wanted to say. You are like that little duckling, the main thing for you is not to get hit by a tractor. Be more careful and follow the rules of the trade.

How many hours sitting on front of the screen have you spend, you need at least 10.000 hours, so you can have some experience, but that just alone doesn't guaranty that you are going to make money, you need more like, reading psycology, looking how the greatest traders work and working with fundamentals, a system alone will not make you money in the long end, in fact it will lose money.

Just take a break we are near Christmas and New Year Holidays and maybe change your system (you can catch it again later when you want) you need to find different methods to adapt (learn new things) with the market and watch your risk, never risk more from what you target, go at least for one times your risk and play more aggresive when you see that your chances of winning are very strong.

Here this forum has many good traders with good knowledge that make money every day, don't quit my last trade gave me less than my last too, but I am up 260 pips and thinking to trade again after the New Year celebrations, now the market isn't good for trading.

Easy for you to judge.
But there were no personal computers at that time.
Risk Management is of utmost importance!
