I started the journey o 2017, i have been on all the known phases for traders and I'm not sure if I'm currently in the last one.
To make story short i can get 1 or 2 month profitable and then another month unprofitable. I tried most popular strategies and no matter being aware of physiologic and risk management the results are the same good month, then bad month and i stay close or very close to where i started, even after 100 trades.
Back tested 1 pair for 1 year great results 22% then the first 2 month of live testing 2 month of negative % that never happened before.
If i have a trend strategy the month that the market is ranging i do awful and vice versa with range strategy.
I don't really see a strategy being 50% win with 2:1 ration on a constantly basis i just don't see it. They might be for 100 trades or 200 trades but not for 400 trades.
Anyways I'm just venting, i feel really frustrated that i spent so many years looking for something that I'm not certain it can be achieved.
My goal was to get into a prop firm but those requirement of 8% gain and then 5% are not very easy to achieve unless i gamble on the lot size. So trading Higher time frames are not an option for me as i don't have enough opportunities to get those objectives.
