{quote} Damn mate! Why you let it get to £13k I would figure to get out by £500-1k in loss, at worst you get out by £3-5k. You don’t set SLs? And what about Trump fucking with Venezuela & the world going to shit globally made you think Gold was gonna retrace after breaking & holding 4400?
I even said it to myself that the conflict would pump gold when it happened during the weekend. So I should have only been looking at longs but somehow I don’t know what came over me that kept saying we will go down after pumping

{quote} I really should have listened to you. I keep trying to short even when the price action isn’t showing that. Just so so stubborn and really mad at myself. I’ve been doing quite well but sometimes I just switch off and want to see something that just isn’t there
If you keep repeating the same mistakes,it means you have not been hurt enough.

I literally have PTSD from crypto bear market 2018, I kept adding to my longs from 7k, even deposited more to stay afloat, when it bottomed at 3k, I was liquidated, lost 6 digit account --- This was a gift dressed in pain.

Forget the money you have lost, start at zero, it will take time to move on, once you move on, you can develop and fix your mistakes - no offense, but when I was a novice, I had this counter trend instinct - there is nothing wrong with countering the trend, lots of money to be made, however it require more skills than following the trend.

But most important is money management, risk management - set small targets to reach per week, build your account that way. If you go for home runs, by either sizing up or insane targets, it will never last. You want consistency over huge wins, once you have consistency, huge wins will either come by consistent small wins over time or when you develop to read the market and let small partials run.

Trading will force you to become a smarter individual or make you broke, there is no in between.

Thanks for the advice mate. I really appreciate it. I originally set my target to £200 a day which I was easily achieving without an issue. But then I just suddenly got too excited and wanted more and started to up my lot size from 0.25/0.5 to 1 or 2 with no stop loss. My risk management is so poor and I really need to go back to the drawing board and fix myself mentally and psychologically.

from now on for few days take only trades after getting confirmation from someone in group, most of them will help you.

We live and learn brother, trust me! I’ve been in your shoes for so many times in 2025, I literally had more losses than profits overall. I even know of a dude that lost £22k to gold & Tesla on Trading212 which has a leverage of like 1:30 he had so many chances to stop at like <£10k but got emotional and left it to run till all the money emptied. I think this kinda huge losses happened when you give up and think “Well, I can’t make the £3k or £5k or £8k back in one day, I might as well just let it run & hope it reverses eventually”

Tbh, it took me till about November to stop being emotional or overly logical, and just follow my gut feeling. Luck can be great but following ones intuition can never fail you. You may read a thousand psychology books and still continue in the same mindset if you don’t open your mind to learn to follow your intuition.

Brav, I’ve been on several trade groups, read some trading books & even have recorded courses on my MacBook, none of them helped me make profit. Unless you are seeking trade signals, you gotta learn the fundamentals, technicals & psychology of trading. I am no master of trade, the likes of Ashley, BeeTogether & Silvano are leagues ahead of me in trading Don’t stress too much bro, pick yourself up & dust the regret of slowly before marching forwards again towards your goals.

My advice is to take some time off, might be a day or a week or a month or even a year, just go away from trading live funds, practice on £100k free demo accounts then purchase a 2-step prop firm challenge like $10k. Once you can pass both stages with a solid strategy at place for both loss & profit, then fund your live account again

{quote} Update: Buyers failed to hold 4410 at first and the bias began to weaken. The last Asia low inside the sweet spot was then triggered, but it was pure reaction and didn’t meet my criteria. Now I’m waiting for buyers to reposition for a possible continuation long within the 4410 zone, or for this move to squeeze shorts above the last Asia high and set up a short from there. {image}
Update: 4430 officially belongs to buyers… still waiting for the possible short after this buyer squeeze.

Any 15m swing above 4455.770 and below 4435.560 is a liquidity run to come to price we are at now...
However the macro is still playing and 1st need breakout with a close first...
It will be my second trade for the day, just waiting to see what range they will give.
Is better at that time only share the price to be taped because i use this as mean strategy, is a high probability just by the range but not always go straight and can be in the future used as demand or supply depending if it play as it should or not...
At least will be the price i believe will be taped...

EDIT: I would like to see a momentum candle here the bigest as possible please... The pips they give more confortable i will be...
