DOW Futures

Missed 2 direct debits today, never ever have missed in the past.
Yet looking for a way to fund the evls.
lost money can be made but diginity!@

Signed up for MFFU 50K.
Dx feed/ Volsys platform.
Get to familiarise with new platform and trade later NYO.

overwhelming amount of orderflow tools and templates in volysis platform.

Bought 3 apex 50k and 3 MFFU 50k in total yesterday
2 apex evls passed. 1 failed. Using Sierra charts .

2 MFFU evls stopped out for daily loss limits ser by me.
I can't change the risk settings until next session in Volsys risk management settings . I was still trying to change the settings but couldn't do it.Talking about discipline yeah.
3rd account is at half way through target.
I will activate the apex funded today.
3 more to pass .

What a great opportunty offered by YM yesterday.
500 ppints swing down followed by 700 point swing up.
Price action rules.
Love it to the core.

Passed another apex evl. So 3 live now.
Acct 1: 1 trade + 50 ticks
Acct 2: 6 trades +90 ticks

MFFU evls all 3 limit down. I gotta use micros to get above the 50k level. I will take time to pass these.
Not gonna rush it.

1 trade of LOD +50 ticks on all 3 accounts. Done with this for the week.

MFFU evls/ holding longs for higher targets, expecting a mark up phase.

Passed All 3 MFFU evls.
Great day.

Mondays never been easy for me.
Full time job and trying to trade all at once is a no brainer.
Jack of none scenario.
Net losing day except 1 acc in green.
Deviated from rules, exceeded personal DD limits but recovered back into manageable dd.

6 funded accounts still not sure trade all at once or one by one.
Apex accounts on sierra can be trade in groups.
But MFFU Volsys no copy trade options.
Whatever happens I have to keep the p/l swings within
£500 .
No big losses or big wins.
Base hits only.
Consistency beats intelligence every time.
Learnt it by paying heavy price.

All time new highs in play now..

Negative stuff.
Blown 3.
Discipline matters. .

Ending this journal.
Can't bother with this any longer.
So long FF friends.
Good luck for all.

Oh Rmg,

I've been there before too many times
Unless you have a real edge - that only you know
And you learn to trust that "voice" completely
And most importantly learn to "let go" once you establish a position - this easier said than done I'm fully aware of that I myself have sabotaged myself more than I can count and I think we all do have our "tendencies" even if you have a real edge if you can't master your "tendencies" and rise above then you can't achieve consistency
As much as it is about making money it's really about mastering your "self" or better yet for me it was about getting into the flow and getting rid of the false "self"

Plus there's risk know how far it goes against you in a normal scenario and how far it goes in an unusual scenario which usually means it is going to reverse and if you can pin down these details you can trade the reversal too, you just have to confirm them that way risk not only helps you to safely and successfully manage a trade but also gives you heads up on change of flow.

Good luck!

I don't know what I don't know.
I know for sure I do have an edge.
Trying to fit trading into my messy situation is what causes failures. I can't quit.

Honestly believe this can be done. Tracking my performance based on few basic rules which shows lack of discipline.
I am at peace with myself that I am a terrible trader, suck at discipline but doesn't mean I should quit and run.

Having an edge means everything should work together towards profitability. Just tape reading alone doesn't cut it. Risk management and execution plays bigger role.

Oh God no one can ever leave forex factory.

lol thats true

Second long entry since LO.
Eat the wick strategy, no turning before kissing the YH.
Yes broke the rule trading before NYO.
I am working later today.
So much for saying good bye to everyone lol.

No trading before 30 minutes of NYO.
500 DLL
600 DPl
1 trade at a time.
4 losing days on a row will ...go hiding again.
Let see.

Clicking = losing.

Stopped out for the day.
Time to hide again.
Rules are there for a reason

Took longs on gold futures at the bottom nice spring pattern but chickened out around 3 pm. Want to focus on dow but coiling around all day goes nowhere. Waiting for FOMC or something.
Meantime gold skyrocketed lol.
Good setups in cable and gold earlier in London session.
Again net losing day overall.
