REDO REDO RESET!
price really went to h4 base

trying to understand what would give a better read... saw your h1 post.

price broke low, pb retrace back gave confirmation for sell... i let my past experience not let me read what price is showing...

i have difficulty confirming price breaking a base. like it starts to get confusing once i change time frame... a body close below another low body? or wick and if i change tf it shifts again...

The trading career is a Marathon not a sprint.
The goal is to maintain consistency of 5-10% weekly return.

this was the 5th week of the year and the 1st week i encountered a lost.
reflected on it and was mainly due to revenge trading with higher lot size and over trading.
the capital is safe but the lost had eaten into the profit.

if we can be consistent with our strategy, the rest 80% is just psychological.
the following videos are good reminders.

I also had a terrible trading week. Beginning of the week, I needed only a 0.7% gain to obtain a funded account, and as a result of some bad trading (greed, revenge trading, and bigger lot size) I ended the week losing 7%.

I also lost the last two week's profits in my personal account.
