GANN Measurements Weekly + Monthly OT

6% this week Mr T. I think some valuable things came from our time on zoom.
5 points below that have stuck in my mind. thankyou.

the brokers always have to square up
likes seeing 2 candle bodies at the same level
when there is a weekly divergence between pairs the next question to ask is what is tradeable
Atomic habits read watch videos by him
apply it to trading with little habits each day after 50-100 days should see a good improvement - little by little great gain is made

Hi guy's, i'm not gonna be around tomorrow and probably for some time

Take care Terry. My prayers go out for your Dad.

Hi
is there a recording of this call?

Hi I sent you a message

thanks got it

A nice chart and explaination from calderone from over at his thread 1st chart
Structure shows classic push and consolidate for a push. It swept the range low and pumped.
I want to post it here so I remember.

Hi Mike

Do you have another favourite bar pattern or structure you like to see on M1 / m5 before entry?
On GU M1 , I think this another sweep of the lows pattern here, like you have posted with good examples. 2nd chart

I like to see a candle with a wick along with the corresponding delta candle flipping or reversing. When this happens at those zones we watch and I also see buyers or sellers stepping in I like to jump in.
I guess the simple answer would be a hammer with follow through.
I also like to see a bullish/bearish candle off of equal lows/highs. Something that engulfs prior candles. That's a huge hint of market sentiment.

Thank you. something like this the hammer followed by the engulfing candle 3rd chart

In my country, it’s currently 3:33 a.m., and I’ve been sitting here for hours carefully reading and examining your work and posts. Thank you for sharing them. I’d like to talk more closely with you.

hi posts 76 and 80 are the teachers posts . he knows this method best. please look at his posts is my best advice.

Maintaining a healthy Circadian Rhythm significantly increases lifespan. Here are the best tips and scientific evidence.
A healthy circadian rhythm is one of the most powerful things you can do to live longer, feel younger, and stay healthier. And most people don’t even know it. Your body runs on a natural 24-hour clock that controls every important process that keeps you alive. Your hormones, your DNA repair, your immune system, your metabolism, your sleep, your mood: all of them follow this rhythm. When you live in sync with this inner clock, your whole body works smoothly. But when you ignore it with late nights, late eating, bright lights at midnight, and irregular sleep patterns, everything slowly falls out of balance. It’s like giving yourself jet lag every single day, and over time that speeds up aging in ways people can actually feel.
Scientists have discovered that almost every cell in your body has its own tiny clock. These clocks tell your DNA when to repair itself, tell your cells when to clean out waste, and guide your hormones to rise and fall at the right times. When your rhythm is strong, DNA repair happens properly in the morning, autophagy works deeply at night, your mitochondria create clean energy, and your longevity genes (like SIRT1, FOXO, AMPK) switch on more easily. When the rhythm is weak, these systems become confused. Your cells work at the wrong times, your energy drops, inflammation rises, and aging speeds up silently in the background.
Huge long-term studies show this very clearly. People who stay up late, eat at night, get irregular sleep, or work night shifts have much higher rates of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, weight gain, depression, and even early death. The data is incredibly consistent: humans who live out of sync with the day-night cycle always age faster. Their cells are stressed, their hormones become chaotic, and their bodies act older than they really are. It’s not just lifestyle. It’s biology.
Your DNA even repairs itself better when you follow your natural rhythm. One of your main DNA repair enzymes, called XPA, peaks in the morning and drops at night. If you’re still awake late with bright screens, your body misses the chance to repair damage. Over the years, that adds up. That’s why night-time light exposure is linked to a higher risk of cancer. Your DNA repair system simply can’t work as well when you’re living against your biological clock.
Sleep is also when the deepest cleaning happens inside your brain and body. Autophagy (the system that removes damaged cells, proteins, and toxins) switches on at night. Your brain uses sleep to wash away waste and clear out harmful plaque that would otherwise build up with age. But if you eat late, stay up late, or expose yourself to bright light before bed, your body delays or blocks this cleaning cycle. Over time, that can raise your risk of memory problems, mood issues, and neurodegenerative diseases. It’s not just about feeling rested. It’s about protecting your brain for decades.
People in the world’s longest-living communities naturally follow strong circadian patterns. They wake with the sun, eat early, stop eating before it gets dark, walk in the daylight, and sleep early. They don’t force it. They simply live in rhythm with nature, and their bodies stay younger because of it. Their hormones stay balanced, their inflammation stays low, and their hearts stay healthy. Their lives are proof that the body thrives when the circadian clock stays strong.
You can support your own rhythm in simple ways. One of the strongest habits is getting morning sunlight. Just 10–15 minutes of light in your eyes soon after waking tells your brain “This is daytime.” It sets all your internal clocks and helps your melatonin rise naturally at night. Another powerful habit is keeping a steady sleep schedule. Not perfect, just consistent. Going to bed and waking up at roughly the same time helps your hormones, energy, and mood stay stable. Even small changes, like dimming lights in the evening or avoiding screens before bed, make your body shift back into its natural night mode.
Eating earlier in the day also strengthens your circadian rhythm. Your metabolism works best when the sun is up, not at midnight. When you eat late, your blood sugar stays higher, your mitochondria work harder, and your body struggles to clean itself overnight. Eating most of your food earlier (especially your biggest meal) can lower inflammation, improve energy, and help your body repair itself more effectively while you sleep. A calm evening, a cool bedroom, and a dark sleeping space all help your rhythm stay strong too.
Think of light as the switch that tells your body what mode to be in. Light means “day mode”: energy, digestion, movement, alertness. Darkness means “repair mode”: DNA fixing, autophagy, immune strengthening. When you embrace this simple pattern, your whole body works with you instead of against you. You wake up fresher, you think clearer, your hormones balance, and your long-term health improves in ways that build up year after year.
While light is the most famous regulator of your internal clock, the second most powerful biological signal is your core body temperature. Your body naturally needs to cool down by 1 to 2 degrees in the evening to initiate deep sleep, and it begins to warm up just before you wake to make you alert. You can actively hack this thermal rhythm to drastically improve your sleep architecture. Taking a hot shower or bath 90 minutes before bed actually draws blood to the surface of your skin, which paradoxically dumps body heat and rapidly cools your internal core. Pairing this with a cool bedroom, ideally around 65°F (18°C), creates the perfect biological environment for your brain to transition into the restorative deep sleep phases where growth hormone peaks and cellular repair is maximized.
Furthermore, modern longevity science has revealed another hidden layer to this system: your gut microbiome has its own distinct circadian rhythm. The trillions of bacteria living in your digestive tract anticipate the daytime for actively processing food and the nighttime for resting and repairing the gut lining. When you consume calories late at night, you force these microbes to work their "night shift." This disruption causes gut dysbiosis and weakens the intestinal wall, allowing toxins to leak into your bloodstream. This triggers a chronic, low-grade immune response known as inflammaging, which is a root driver of accelerated aging. By enforcing a strict eating window and fasting for at least 12 to 14 hours overnight, you are not just resting your stomach; you are actively allowing your microbiome to heal, thereby shutting down a major source of systemic inflammation.
Maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm isn’t complicated or expensive. It’s a gentle shift back into the natural pattern your body was built for. It’s sunlight in the morning, meals earlier in the day, less bright light at night, and a steady sleep schedule that supports your brain and cells. When you live in alignment with this rhythm, your body becomes calmer, stronger, and younger from the inside out. It’s one of the simplest and most powerful longevity tools you already have. And choosing to follow it is choosing a longer, healthier life for yourself. — Dr. Georgios Andreas Ioannou, Anti-Aging Scientist

FTMO prop firm avoid at all costs. it is a scam

The 10% Maximum Loss rule in the FTMO 2-Step Challenge dictates that your overall account equity cannot drop more than 10% from your initial balance. It is a trailing limit based on your highest historic end-of-day equity,

How the Trailing Drawdown Works

1. End-of-Day Calculation: The limit is recalculated every midnight at 00:00 CE(S)T.
2. Calculation Formula: It is calculated as the difference between the highest historic equity recorded at midnight and the Maximum Loss Amount (which is 10% of the initial capital).
3. The "Lock-In" Effect: As you make profits, your trailing maximum loss limit rises with your account. However, if your equity drops, this limit never decreases; it stays locked at the highest historical level.
4. Rule Violation: If your account equity falls below this trailing limit at any time, the account is breached. This includes both realized and floating (open) losses, swaps, and commissions.

Example Scenario ($100,000 Account)

1. Initial Capital: \(\$100,000\)
2. Max Loss Limit: \(\$90,000\) (10% of initial)
3. Profit Milestones & Trailing Limit Adjustments:
   1. If your account grows to an end-of-day balance of \(\$110,000\), your new Maximum Loss Limit is raised to \(\$100,000\) (i.e., \(\$110,000 - \$10,000\)).
   2. If you subsequently have a losing streak and your equity drops to \(\$101,000\), you are still safely trading.
   3. However, if your equity falls to \(\$99,999\) or below, you will violate the Maximum Loss rule.

Resetting the Limit: The trailing drawdown rule applies to both Step 1 (Challenge) and Step 2 (Verification). It is reset back to your initial capital parameters only after you pass and receive your funded FTMO Rewards Account or process a withdrawal

the max loss trailing limit is a scam because even if you got you account up by 9% to $10.900 for example, then you had a losing streak keeping within each days max loss. you can still voilate the rule of 10% max loss trailing drawdown by having your account balance go below $9,900 to $9899.
you will be only down 1.1% but still you have now voilated the max loss trailing limit rule.
AVOID FTMO AT ALL COSTS. IT IS A SCAM

The 5 ers PROP FIRM is ok from what I can see. It doesnt have the trailing max loss rule. The maxium loss is static which is fair.
High Stakes: 2-Step Challenge

Phase 1 Rules
High Stakes (New and Classic, identical rules for both phases):

1. Maximum loss: 10% of initial balance (static floor)
2. Daily loss limit: 5%
3. Minimum profitable days: 3
4. Time limit: none
5. Consistency rule: none

Drawdown Calculation Method
High Stakes: The maximum loss is static: it is fixed at 10% of the initial balance and never trails upward as profits grow. The daily loss limit is a separate calculation, recalculated each day from the higher of the previous day’s closing balance or closing equity at 00:00 server time.
