Hey Everyone I am completely new to trading, like REALLY new (started 2 weeks ago) And I am really already starting to learn ALOT from this page So just wanted to say hey as a new trader
Welcome to the family! Be prepared for instant stress and thinking when analyzing the market by yourself. But you can learn things from here! Much respect to all of the traders, especially the newer ones!

{quote} Agreed ! I always try to set my stop loss at BE, unless my entry is wrong & price instantly puts me in negative profit
Can I give you one piece of friendly advice?
Try not to move your stop to breakeven too fast.
You make a plan → you choose your entry → you place your SL → then you let the market do its thing. The SL is part of the setup. If you push it to BE too early, you’re actually breaking your own plan.
Most real moves need a bit of breathing room first. Very often price will go a little against you before it runs. If your SL is already at BE, you get tagged out… and then the market does exactly what you expected. Then you have to re-enter at a worse price.
So better is:

  1. place your SL where the idea is invalid
  2. let it work
  3. only move to BE when you actually have some profit / structure in your favor
  4. and only trail into profit when there’s real momentum

BE is good for protection just don’t use it as fear.

you’re right goldgod that last jab wasn’t needed. my ego jumps in sometimes too, I can admit that. that one was on me. he already ignored me so he won’t see it, but others will, so fair point.

yeah it’s certainly still a learning curve for me, personally whilst I’m “still learning” (every days a school day) I set S/L to BE early whilst I’m still figuring out my entry signals & confirmations. I’ll get there soon

yeah that’s 100% true and honestly it stays a learning curve even for people who’ve traded for years.
markets change.
we get crisis periods (2008),
covid,
wars,
different regimes,
different volatility cycles…
so even if your system is good, the environment keeps changing. that’s why even experienced traders still adapt.
and the other thing you said “still learning” that never stops. even profitable guys have days where emotions jump in. we’re not robots. some days you’re tired, some days you force a trade, some days you move SL just because you “felt” something. that’s normal, but that’s also why psychology is the real skill.
if you stay like this honest about what you don’t know yet you’ll be fine.
couple things you can focus on:

  1. focus on zones → what does price do when it hits a real level (previous day high/low, session high/low, m30 supply/demand)
  2. assume the big boys are hunting stops → so don’t be surprised by fake breaks, liquidity grabs, sweeps
  3. don’t go BE too fast → otherwise you get tagged out and then the move runs without you
  4. ego out → sometimes the market clearly shows “your idea is invalid now” just accept it, don’t try to be right

trading is mostly this: manage emotions, don’t be greedy, don’t be scared, don’t chase.
if you can do that, the technical part becomes 10x easier.
you’ll get there, champ keep the student mindset that one makes you dangerous later.

bad day for me yesterday, my takeaway was just take a day off when there is massive news like rate cuts, or at least call it a day well before news hits

I look forward to receiving your comments on my trading method: - I choose Pivot, Fibo to identify key resistance and support zones - Use DC indicator to further support in identifying compression range - Use RSI, ADX to support momentum determination - VPVR to further support POC, volume - And most importantly, learn to feel the market, feel the candles. For example, currently I expect the price to penetrate R1 to hold longer. If there is a sign of reversal, I will close profit at a low level. Looking forward to more comments. Thank you. {image}...

Welcome to Gold with No Drama. This thread is built for clean bias updates. Respectful energy. Zero chaos. I trade XAUUSD with full criteria. No signals. No teaching. No ego. Just bias. Just clarity. Just emotional discipline.
Today is my first day here writing this particular post and i would like to learn. Though i know more than basics but this market nowadays driving me mad and it really sometimes a gamble haha. Could you be kind to advise few key things i should look at as beginner, i have been profitable for more than 15 days straight though sometimes but it hurts bad whenever this news drama starts.

I listen to the good part from everyone but what he does is, he tries to teach everyone without them asking. then he disrespects the seniors such as deal and raventine.

Then he will mock everyone to take attention, almost everyone instead of minding his own business and sharing his own idea. If I was the owner of this thread I would have banned him permanently.

Many people give advises here and we learn from each other too but this is not the shit to be tolerated

Today’s Bias: Long

• Buyers reclaimed 3990 and dragged the battle back to 4000. That’s the new center.
• Long zone on hold. Sellers pushed past the limit, buyers need to reposition. Waiting for two more 30-minute candle closes.
• Flip short if 3990 fails.

Sell at 4004 , SL 4021
using a trailing SL in this one, price can kick from 3947/3956, if breaks we go further down

You’re not listening at all, Kareem — that’s the whole point.
You say “I listen to the good part from everyone,” but the moment it’s me, you don’t want to hear it, even when I talk calm and factual. Last week I already pointed something out to you and you’re still salty about it. That’s emotions, not logic.
Let’s clear some things up:

  1. I never disrespected Raventine.
    Because he doesn’t call people names. The “worst” thing he says is that people are blind to the market and he’s right. That’s not disrespect, that’s trading truth.
  2. I don’t hate Deal.
    Everybody here knows exactly what I said about him including the part where I pointed out that he changed bias 2–3 times in the same session. I’m not taking that back.
    But that was never about his market knowledge.
    I have zero problem with what Deal posts about structure, levels, HTF, session reads he knows the market and he knows price action, I would never deny that. In a lot of things we even look at the market the same way.
    What I called out was how fast he flips and then talks down to people like they’re wrong, while he just switched direction himself.
    So it wasn’t “Deal is wrong.”
    It was “Deal can read the market, but his attitude toward people and the ego when someone says something he doesn’t like is off sometimes.”
    And that’s allowed to be said.
  3. You’re dragging last week into this because you’re still in your feelings.
    That was a week ago. If you’re still emotional 7 days later over someone telling you “you’re still learning,” then that’s exactly what I meant: your emotions and ego are not clean yet. In trading that’s dangerous.
  4. This is a public forum.
    I can reply to whoever I want. I don’t have to ask you for permission. And you could’ve just said: “hey bro, don’t give me advice, I’m good.”Done. But you went straight into attack mode everybody can read it.
  5. Don’t hide behind “senior traders”.
    You said “he disrespects seniors like Deal and Raventine.” No. I spoke to you. You’re bringing them in now to look stronger, but this was a conversation between you and me.
  6. And be honest:
    You listen to people you like (or who hype you)
    but when someone says “you’re still a student” → you get defensive right away.
    That’s ego, not learning.

So let’s keep it simple:

  1. I never insulted you.
  2. I never said Deal can’t trade.
  3. I never attacked Raventine.
  4. I only pointed out your inconsistency: one day “I’m new / I made SL mistake”, next day “what SL did you use?”, next day posting setups like you’re a pro. That’s confusing.

If you don’t want my input, just say:
no advice pls.”
Then I leave it.
But don’t twist it like I was out here attacking everyone I spoke to you.

Bullish strength has gone weakened in the last 90 mins or so. NYO soon lets see where that takes us. we may see a lower move or even a re-test of 4000 sort of in the middle again right now with a bias thats neither here or there
