I took a short break from trading, and today marks the first day of a new forward-testing project. The core trading method remains the same, but I’ve incorporated some fresh concepts borrowed from Islandfx911’s thread.

The primary goal of this project is to collect meaningful data and develop a more mechanical approach—keeping emotions out of the equation as much as possible. I'm also adopting a conservative risk appetite, inspired by the principles of Mark Douglas.

Let’s see how things unfold over the next 25 trades.

What concepts or strategy are you using here?
I am also testing out my own strategy. It uses the Daily, so it has nothing to do with this thread at all.

Strategy:
As it is outlined in this thread.

Concepts:

  1. That are discussed by the OP, in this thread and in his previous thread
  2. Also the rejection Candle and zone of interest by Islandfx911

Interestingly, both approaches share similarities and complement each other well.

Please feel free to skip my post if it doesn't contribute to your approach or offer value to your strategy.

I’ve completed 25 trades in my little project. Unfortunately, I didn’t hit the target 8% return, and my balance is back to square one. I don’t know how you manage to stay so consistent — I’ve got a lot of reviewing to do this weekend. Next week, I’ll be starting another batch of 25 trades. This time, there’ll be no manual intervention: no more 50/50 trades. I’ll let each position run its course — either take profit, break-even, or stop loss.

1. Trading with the trend.
2. Enter a trade at an area of interest. HTF SnR / SnD / Engulf.
3. Entry signal at correct market sessions.

this is the process of finding out the causes.
anything to do with the 3 rules? especially 2 and 3. one may counter trend at times.
i will be more interested in the circled trades. was it stacking? or holding on to losses?
supposed to be 1 entry 1 SL 1 TP. SL is pre planned. no delay in cutting loss.
it is to build up psychologically. profit to be in a basket of trades, not to be affected by SL.

For myself, Countertrend trades and not being able to accept loss for sure killed me this week. Mostly my ideas were right. I wanted to sell UJ and buy EU and leave GU alone this week. ended up buying UJ and selling EU and selling GU. Lack of patience to wait for market to align with HTF made me take countertrend trades.
Anyways, how can one be good at taking losses? I cannot seem to accept loss. It hurts my ego to take losses. Also In my mind I am thinking I can always add a position and get out breakeven.

According to Mark Douglas:

we can learn to trade without fear by learning to think in probabilities. By doing this, the trade-by-trade results are totally irrelevant, the only thing that matters is the profitability over 20+ trades.
The essence of trading consistently is the following:
“This pattern will emerge x number of times, and when it does there is a higher probability of it doing this than the opposite. If I limit my risk and my profit potential is at least 2.5X my risk then I will be a long-term profitable trader.”
