From Rookie to Full time Forex trader

yeah the price charts duh

The other charts are basically cypher patterns that I've been trading however I don't post every single trade here as it would be annoying and people can see the trades in the fxbook so there is no real need for it either. The fxbook is not 100% correct though due to the credit my broker puts on my account.

Hey guys!
I'm wishing everybody a good trading week!
I am currently still in a trade that I entered last week so we will see how that goes.
Other than that I was looking at testing another pair but I am still observing it to since I've noticed some stuff I didn't like about it that would make my strategy not work.


Thanks

I had a power cut today and I wasn't aware that this was going to happen so I had orders on and they could have ended badly.
Always make sure that you have a backup plan for when this happens! Get your brokers number or have someone where you can go and cancel orders or something. Anything that works.
It's important.

I personally have 2 backup plans and I had to use one of them today.
Make sure you have it!

We already had one winner and one loser this week so we're down a little bit but lets see what the rest of the week will bring!

The month is over so lets review it!
No mistakes were made. I entered every trade that I should have.
We ended up with a 4.1% increase!

The reason we ended up with 4.1% is because I ended up testing 2 more pairs which were both added to my plan.
The month before this we had a 2.9% increase with 2 pairs. This last month we had 4 pairs which is double!

It was a good month so lets make the next one good too!
Good luck guys!

Hello guys,
So let's be honest I had a rough week this week. The draw down grew we didn't get many trades.
We got 4 trades 2 losers 1 winner and 1 is still in progress.
If that one last trade is a winner that would make it all positive again for this week but it won't complete this week so we'll have to see next week!

Other than that not much going on. Trading the plan.

Hey guys!
I'm going to be honest here. I was pretty bummed out at the end of last week so I had to work hard to reset my mentality by today.
I was able to do that so lets keep trading the plan!

I wish you all a good week of trading and lets hope we kill it in the markets this week!


Thanks

Alright! Let's review this week!
It wasn't a great week in terms of profits but I stuck to my plan and traded every single setup there was for me.
I got stopped out twice by a couple of pips in the last 2 weeks so if that didn't happen the results would have been extremely different.
3 losers 1 winner this week.

I'm still working on some trading strategies and we will see what will come of those. Currently having trouble finding a way to properly backtest it.

Let's hope next week is better and thanks for reading!

Hey guys!
Let's talk about the past week!
We had 4 trade opportunities all on AUD/CAD 3 of them were winners and 1 wasn't filled and I have no clue how it wasn't filled.
We're still in a drawdown but we are climbing out of it!

On top of that I was testing 2 strategies on demo and I will continue to test them.
So far it seems amazingly good but we will see how it goes in the future!

Hey guys!
The past week was ok I guess. We had 2 trades, 1 winner and 1 loser. I made a small little mistake but I got out of that immediately so only a tiny loss there.
Overall the week was profitable!
We're still crawling out of that drawdown but that's ok.
We'll get out of it eventually.
I have been thinking about dropping AUD/CAD because the spread is a constant 4pips or more which really cuts in on profits sometimes.

I do want to expand my portfolio to 6 pairs at least and I want to add more strategies but that will take more time.
On top of that I'm putting the 2 strategies I'm working on on hold for now in favor of adding more pairs with my already established strategy and in favor of adding more advanced patterns to my strategy list.

All questions are welcome.

Hey guys!
A quick update!
3 trades so far this week, 2 profitable and 1 non profitable. We're a tiny bit in profit so our drawdown isn't getting bigger at the moment.

A big thing I did as well is I opened up a lot more information in my trade explorer so you guys can check that out.


Thanks for reading!
Any questions are welcome.

Alright alright alright, we ended this week in a profit even if it is a very small profit.
The drawdown did not grow.

I entered 3 more trades today as well which will be held over the weekend. We will see how things go!
In the end the month of September wasn't all that great. I would have ended in profit if it wasn't for a few problems I had which I'm looking to resolve at the moment.
We'll see how that goes.

On to the next month! Let's hope it's better than September.


Thanks for reading! Any questions are welcome!
Don't forget to check the trade journal thing up top if you want more information!

Hey guys!
So after being in a drawdown for the entirety of September we are now out of it and let's hope we can move up!
My position size has been increased but I am keeping the same amount of allowable risk.
That means that my profits/losses will be bigger but the risk % is the same meaning, in the end we'll make more money.

I also adjusted my spreadsheet to include my money management strategy and my strategy went from 4.500$ profit to 12.500$ profit if you start trading using a 10000$ account! In a year on average.

Let's hope we get more new equity highs.
I have 1 trade still on and 1 on my radar!

Hey guys!
This week was a very good week!
We finally got out of that drawdown but then we lost on a trade and now we're in a drawdown again yaaay!
It's ok though! We had a very profitable week.

Let's hope next week will be the same!
There isn't much on the charts right now so I doubt I'll have any trades on Monday at the very least.

Alright so last week was terrible. I had to reset myself last weekend to be able to trade this week and I did so without problem.
Let's hope it's a good week now because I can certainly use it.

So far for getting out of that drawdown huh hehe

Hey guys!
So it's the end of yet another week!
This week was good. We're still in a drawdown but we are crawling out of it once again.
Once the market favors me a little more equity will be going up again however until then it will be a grind!
I haven't made a single mistake this week or even last week so it's all good!

I remember when I first started to learn about this not even a year ago. After 6 months I was already trading live and I am still working on improving however at the moment I put aside adding patterns and pairs in favor of gaining more experience in the market psychology wise.
These drawdowns have an affect on me and to be honest it's a bit depressing to see your profits go down however I know this was going to happen someday from the start and I have handled it well.

I want to stress the importance of not looking at the numbers until the end of the week and using the weekend to reset your state of mind.
It helped me tremendously to continue trading properly and to not be affected by emotions.

As for next week... let's hope we get out of that drawdown!
If you have any questions let me know!

No trades this week.
I won't force things if there are no setups. Exercise that restraint.
All was good.

It was a boring week though.


-AntiVi

Look at that another negative week.
It's ok eventually the market will go in my favor.

When that happens it shall be glorious!

Hey guys!
It's been a while! Remember my last post where I said that it would eventually go in my favor?
Well look at it now! I have finally gotten new equity highs after 5 months or perseverance. The election kinda messed me up so I had to come back from that.

Let's hope that it will move up further now!
I also adjusted my strategy a little bit.

Anyway I just wanted to update you guys because you guys may think that I gave up but I have not. I'm still going strong!


Have a good trading week and see you guys next time and as always feel free to leave any questions or comments you may have.
