Ya, I wasn't even thinking about this week. I had closed all my shorts from the beginning of the week. Then, thinking longs would work. My gut said stay in long, the charts still said short. But noooo, I was thinking I could out smart the market and put a sneaky long trade in again. LOL!!! F me! I did make 2% today on some quick scalps but that hurt and I know better.
bro there was lots looking to get same bounce from them supports, you wasnt the only one, probably why she felled a little harder through support.

Now is the dilema, they have to get the bull support to get back through the same supports, probalby why market is running in circles now, cause lots bull got their butts spanked.
Long is not so attractive today as it was friday, and to short just under breached supports is not that great either, for anyone looking for entry now, is dangerous either way, just i my 2 cents but I am extremely bias

I also think it's harder to go from 100k to 1M than it is from 10k to 100k. And not because of the mental part of it, although that could also play a roll. I would imagine dealing with larger orders creates fills at worse average prices, assuming everything else equal( such as spreads and/or commissions.
Not really an issue for swing or long-term traders trading with reputable brokers.

I think that is possible if talking about a month average. Day to day 0.3% will be difficult to achieve unless some sort of Martingale is applied.

I see the monthly pivot point is in between EU and GU... I haven't seen a monthly S2 hit in my very short time of forex trading. If price goes up, that's my new target.

If the price breaks the current yellow line it's tussling with, then the next yellow line would be a nice target, but 1.2930 is more realistic.

The best way is not to base your target on time but in number of trades.

For example, if you risk 1% per trade and are looking for 3% profit, set a target how many winners you need in a block of 100 trades. You can take several trades in a day if you see right setups or stay away for a day or two if no setups are there.

The point is to have a goal and measure. You will have a goal and a measure. Check your performance after every 100 trades.
