Hey everyone,
I just wanted to share a few thoughts — no offense meant to anyone, especially new traders or even experienced ones still struggling. I hope this helps someone.
Too often, we focus on how much we made this week or month, while ignoring the losses because they’re too painful to admit. That mindset doesn’t help in the long run. So here’s something I wrote in my free time, based on my own experience.
Right now, I’m holding from 3360, added at 3380, targeting 3360 again, and I’ll hold the original position for 3330. I expect better-than-expected NFP data, so 3300 isn’t unrealistic.
Also, gold buying by central banks (like Poland and China) dropped 14% in April — that’s a sign. Yes, gold is at historically high levels, but you can’t use gold to buy products or pay for services — you need actual currency. It doesn’t matter if it’s USD, EUR, GBP, AED, or SAR — money is what fuels trade and business.
That alone tells me gold is too high for now. At 3000, I’ll reassess. But I don’t trade short-term moves like $5 or $10 — I believe that’s why most retail traders lose money. It’s too stressful and time-consuming. If you’re trading 10 hours a day, that’s a job — not passive income.
Instead, I trade medium- to long-term. I place trades and wait — sometimes for days — but I’m not glued to the screen. Maybe I’m wrong, but life is short. Time is limited. We all get the same ~70 years, give or take.
And honestly, trading can become an addiction if you're not careful. You can spend years doing it and still have nothing to show for it. It took me a long time to realize that low leverage and consistent, small gains are the way to go. Even 10% a month with compounding is a 220% yearly return — show me another market that gives you that.
Last year, I made 178% with only 2 hours of trading a day — the rest of the time I focus on other things in life. That’s my approach.
I learned a lot from my mentor, Muhammad (screen name: Dubaifx) — may God bless him. He taught me to focus on the long-term and not be a liquidity provider for the market. Follow the big players, not your emotions. That mindset changed everything for me.
I used to overtrade, hold too many positions, think I could outsmart the market. It doesn’t work. Now I just share my trades freely — no signals, no sales pitch. You can watch and try them on a demo account. If it works for you, great. If not, that’s okay too.
Just a sincere gesture to help those who are losing. And remember — don’t blame the market. Don’t stay in denial.
I’ll be writing a detailed post about my 10-year journey — everything I learned and did to get where I am today.
Wishing you all the best. I came back to Forex Factory after 6 years. The truth is 80% of traders still lose money — that warning has been there since 2008. Back then the FX market was $3T. Now it’s over $7.3T — bigger than the US stock market.
Eventually, you’ll get tired of losing — if not today, then someday. That’s just reality. You need to develop the right mindset. That’s where everything starts.
Good luck and God bless.

my forecast for nfp, lower than expected

This looking like an inside bar breakout. D1

Not good for bears.
