[b]So last week was tough.
..
My winning got into my brain and i went against all my trading rules... .
I ventured into over trading....
Greed got a better part of me ...
Impatience became my second name...
Thank God for risk management else i for don lose all my account...

6k dropped to 2.7%
10k dropped to 1.6%
And i lost 1.3% on 200k .....

Well my brain don factory reset....
Lesson learnt....
I didn't factor in weeks that i won't be able to get my desired target that was the reason why i couldn't handle the losing streak properly when it came....
Well i don record the loss as say i don withdraw my last month profit and i dey hit the market afresh....
Will update my new trading plan.....

So i just noticed that the number of times hit my tp which is 93 pips normally....
Its rare....
Most times just once a week sometimes none...
And I noticed my pair averages 50 pips once it crosses a key level...
That means i will now reduce my Rrr to 1:2...

Secondly any week i start out with my sl picked....
My target for the rest of would be to recover the loss and nothing more....

And if i hit two losing streak for a week....
I stop trading for that week.....
I wan force this discipline by force...
So I'm giving myself 12 months time limit to get to live account....
No rushing....
My risk remain the same...
Weekly target will now be 100 pips....

Happy New Week ....

A little modification to the way i trade....
Did a lot of brain storming over the weekend and i came up with this.....
The habit of sticking to rules no easy.....
But i dey try.....

After collecting datas each as i try and watch the market behavior....
I noticed gu rarely make 100 pips move after a move is clearly confirmed except you're lucky to get in before the build up....
Gu averages 60 pips......
That means i have to reduce my profit target for each day....

Secondly i was delete the habit of running away from the market everyday...
I noticed the more i look at charts the more i learn....
So i will be trading everyday of the week as long as the market meets my criteria.....



This is the number of pips i will hunt each day...

Monday - 30 pips
Tuesday - 50 pips
Wednesday - 50 pips
Thursday - 40 pips
Friday - 30 pips

Total -- 200 pips

So this means i will reduce my risk a little bit.... Inorder to protect my psychology....

Thirdly any week i record loss on Monday and Tuesday the rest of the week will be focused on recovering only the loss once recovered i close for the week and go again the next week....

My plan going forward....

So I'm looking at a minimum of 18 weeks to pass both phase one and phase 2 and a maximum of 60 weeks to conclude both phases
