My day ended about 4 hours ago but it was a BADDDDD day. Literally every decision I made was wrong and on me honestly. Literally every single decision. Had just about 7 trades today and all of them were either Ls or BEs. Even the ones that went to profit after I panic moved my SL to BE or manually closed them in loses and then full TP. Gotta understand that I'm putting the SL there FOR A REASON. WE use SL BECAUSE we are willing to lose that certain amount of money. Sometimes, if not most of the times, you NEED to give the market and the PA some...
Real talk.
But for me the SL is all about perspective.
It’s not just about accepting losses or giving the market space.
If I look at it that way, deep down I’ll never truly accept losing anything.

For me the SL is simply the cost of the idea.
I put it in a place that proves my prediction wrong.
If it gets hit, that’s the price I’m willing to pay for being wrong.
Not fear, not panic, just the cost of invalidation.

Maybe it’s just my style and maybe I’m blinded by it, but once that perspective shifts, everything changes.
No panic, no hesitation.

Some of this sounds like cope bro.

If you're losing 7 trades in a day then either you're not trading a proper strategy or you're strategy isn't built for this regime.

Don't trick yourself into thinking this trading behaviour is just 'part of the process'.

it was very good setup at 4089 as OB of main swing high of the day was at 4092/4093 that was my sniper entry sadly never got there. And market closing soon current situation holding is risky as hell currently. For me the LHR was just more scalp and wrote it at 4086 and fell a bit by then which was just risky for me anyways $5 tops stop! The push earlier I needed a 3$ stop had a 2$ stop

This is not advice, but it's simply a reminder to myself. It's something that can happen to me, or may happen to other traders.

IMHO. In trading, we need to master a method that suits our own personality and style. We must use it as our personality SOP and remain disciplined in following it. As long as our SOP has not met all of our entry criteria, don't ever try to create false assumptions or force a trade. Yup, we are in the thread of discussion; we can easily be influenced by the assumptions or analyses of other traders. Sometimes, those influences cause us to drift away from our own trading method.

It happens to me as well. I sometimes have to ignore other traders' analyses and focus on my own. I'm always used to words; I don't care what people say. If others' analyses genuinely add value, I will consider them as supplementary input.

If we ever feel lost, we're not alone. We are only human, and making mistakes is part of the trading journey. If we ask others, they also admit to their own dark side. The real question is: we already make mistakes. In the future, are we going to repeat it? Every mistake carries a lesson. If we are willing to learn from it, it will become something valuable for the future.

Just personal opinion. My apology
Look right, we'll see the signs

{quote} So, do we go long or short on "FOMC Wednesday"?
look to see what dxy is doing. if it goes up fomc usually sells it. not always but it has a high win rate... if dxy drops b4 fomc then fomc will push it up

This is prolly about 70-75% win rate but if your'e not used to it go back and check every fomc this year to get a feel

this is my take on the fed situation...warsh cant upset hump especially since he was talking about a rate cut earlier today

{quote} i still think price will reach 4400ish to print that H+S right shoulder pattern i mentioned 3-4 weeks ago the fed will stay put on rates like the ECB did last week and theyll stay neutral in their statement so not to spook the american stock market cvause hump needs that going higher into the november elections which maga will lose bigly no matter what but he thinks if the stock market keeps goin up so do magas chances so gentlemen try not to follow any indictors telling you to short gold for the time being until that right shoulder gets printed
short trump and go long the deepstate

In a sense, you can see a resemblance between today Monday and the Monday of the week when we had the Fed meeting.
