{quote} Thanks PC.... I have neglected reading of any books of late..despite having a good library.. I do have this book...so I shall take this as a sign and dust it off And thanks to VidVad.... Maaaan,,that is some powerful stuff. {quote}
Yeah, I actually thought Vidvad was “quoting” him, because its exactly what his books is about - to separate yourself from your ego/ voice in your head. A great read IMO.

What I really like about trading fixed bar and this whole system of 20 trades is I concentrate a lot more on how and when to take a profit or loss as opposed to adding this, that, or the other indicator to somehow get that perfect entry. And I know the time every day that I need to watch for entries. So I can trade around when it is convenient for me and not staring at my screen waiting for the perfect entry.

"Intentional Undivided Attention is Required"~VidVad
↑↑↑↑↑↑

Highly structured trading... Knowing ones trading hours "window"
Clear and concise setups with clear entry triggers within your window.
Clear and concise Money Mgmt/Trade Mgmt that fits in a time based window.

The majority are fixated on the perfect entry...and entries are important but IMO
to a much much lesser extent as the Exit. A closed trade is where the buck stops and what determines how much you win or lose.

Intentional Undivided Attention is Required in your trading window.

All the best to you Belgrath

I've not been exposed to Tolle directly, but I do believe that Dave Scott Trades and others who I do follow have mentioned his influence. I am an imperfect student of Zen, so to speak, and this is, if I'm not mistaken, a key element of Zen. For example, when meditating, as thoughts come into one's mind, Zen teaches we should notice and be aware of the thought, but not to engage it, and simply allow it to float out of mind. I don't claim to have any original ideas myself, just to be clear.

I am pure derivative.

I will probably not be able to record my trading this morning at the open this morning as I will be recording a zoom presentation for work starting at 9AM. Unless the presentation is shorter than usual, I'll still be stuck in the meeting when the bell rings.

Have a great day, everyone!

{quote} Remember, MFx, you are NOT your ego. You are the awareness of the distress your ego feels. You need to train yourself simply to sit back and smile at the silliness of your ego. Pride? Is that not merely another disguise the ego uses to trick you into believeing that it is you who feels the distress rather thna the ego? You are not your ego. When these feelings arise, it is especially important for you to be mindful of the distinction between what your ego feels, and you, the awareness, the consciousness, of the feeling.
really appreciate the time you take to reply to me! I do need to start sitting with the feelings instead of acting on them ... I've started doing a breathing exercise before I trade to help stay calm and focused. Need to get a few sticky notes up too

I had one of those unfortunate days where price gapped but not in my favor. So I had a larger loss on the first trade and a smaller win on the second. But maybe next time gaps in my favor. Just roll with the punches and move on.

I don't use ma. Usually there is only ema21 on the chart (just a habit) but today I mistakenly used another template, and there are 4 emas on it).

Last week I got 5 losses in a row, then I stopped trading.
"Trading through a winning streak is very easy. The difficulties arise when trading through the inevitable losing streaks. It is how one responds to the losing streaks that determines if one has successfully transformed oneself into a consistently profitable trader."

hope everyone has had a good trading day
I'm just over halfway to my profit target on my prop evaluation! Clawed it back from a -£1000 day last week stacking small wins over and over.

https://www.tradingview.com/x/ybVW5o4O/

this is the most consistent I've ever traded. period. thanks to you all.
got a way to go still but I actually feel like I'm making progress

I'm only trading Dow on this account. going to open a few more, 1 for each asset and fixed bar I want to trade. enjoyed the vids from Vidvad too on the £2k to £1m challenge. very cool stuff.
if you read this Vid, why on the 2nd trade of the day (on your last vid) did you trail the Stop loss tightly behind your trade? are you not leaving those for 1:1 or is that a different MM Strat for Nascrack ?

How I trade what I trade matters not at all. M5 Nazcrack does demand a more aggressive money management from me. But don't concern yourself with me.

Trade your plan! That's where your money is!
