The idea was to buy at that support 1.174, then i may have done to much random buying, i tried to buy at M1 supports but also did some extra idk why
Then i was afraid it wasn't going to stop until the next H4 support that was still far away and i had bought too much too soon
when it finally turned i may have got out too soon

EURUSD can be too noisy on M1, so I have changed to M5. It seems to work better.
I then on occassion (not always), look at M1 to see where price is slowing down.

If still going down (for example today), take some profit off the table on the pull backs and re-enter at a better price. Repeat cycle until price returns to your trades at the top. If it does not return potentially still end up in profit when all trades closed. This one method use at own risk.

To be honest, it may appear simple and clean, it’s very painful — just not as painful as dealing with people in a workplace. Actors say you should never work with children or animals. My version is: don’t work with children, animals, or adults. Unfortunately, I’m not quite at that level yet.

I hope — and honestly dream — to one day join the ranks of gringo2019, Ced74, Tyross, Birdland, Pipcruiser, javipenjamo, PipsArt and others.

It’s true that you have to deal with real life. This morning, I had nothing but family obligations to handle. Just the simple things in life—it’s normal. Sometimes I work in between tasks, like today, where I have to head out again this afternoon (it’s 1:05 PM here in France). You get used to it.
I owe my 196 points primarily to the solid slope of the SMA 100 on the M1, and then on the M2. I relied on that for 90% of it. The key is having a good trading system.

Ronin, honestly, you’re on the right track. Everything is fine.

I was a dental surgeon for 17 years... working with people is incredibly difficult. At 40, I’d had enough of putting up with the whims of overly coddled adults in France—people who don't realize how lucky they are to live in such a country. I walked away from it all; it was the best decision of my life. Hang in there, your turn will come.

2nd account scalp pre US Open to US Open.
Done for today.
@ronin, too much thinking, impatient, fear and greed are the reason why we fail. When you remove those 4 things, you will trade differently.
You know what my situation was like 2-3 years ago .
