If that'so,you might need a retweak in your strategy bro.you need to learn to how to catch many pips from a trade.trust me,most stress come from making many trades,if you're trading only gbpusd,why not learn to catch long term movement?,the market (GU)have been selling since last 5-6 weeks continuosly.why not learn to catch much rather than targeting peanuts?
It's also obvious that your trades are always closed before hitting Tp or Sl,that's why your wins are always small and inconsistent..
I dont have the patience to wait out trades that long...
I tried and failed at it...
So retweaking of strategy got me here ..

I will suggest you use a tighter stoploss. 45pip sl is too much for a day trader. Consider this

1. Patiently wait for the trade to get to your demand or supply zone.
2. Wait for confirmation b4 taking the trade. Doing this will cut low the sl pips and greater chance of quality trade. And your tp will hit early enough

Strategy i want to work with
Stop loss remains the same 45 pips.....
Take profit will be flexible, whenever i notice the formation of opposite trend candle from lower TF up to higher time trade will be closed manually....

It could be 10 pips or 20 pips or however ir comes... but i will do my analysis with 70 pips in mind so i don't fall for false signals.....

Profit target for the week will be 1 to 1.5

Which means 69 pips per week .....

Any week where i record sl hitting, the rest of the days will be focused on recovering loss, once recovered we move on to the next week.....

It will be messy I Know but i go try to dey discipline.....

With lot of 0.77 on 200k account

So i will be risking 350 dollars per trade to get 500 dollars ...
Which is 1% every 4 months

Evening guys, so like we all know this past two weeks have been tough on my end, honestly once your psychology is messed up, there's no going back if not properly managed, you go just blow all your account... thank God for the little discipline....
When our big bosses they scream every phase comes with its own challenge, i don experience am real time..
In order words no be to rush pass the challenge if you dont have a stable system in place you will mess it up....

overconfidence kills and low confidence isn't also good, you need to find a balance... i broke alot of my rules and started feeling invincible in the market, well market leta hunt me out....
I still have one bad habit left and i really need to kill it else na big wahala and that habit is over trading and shifting sl when in red....
So i will be taking a break from all my challenge accounts and focus fully on killing this habit ...


So i will take it one week at a time, till whenever I feel im ready....
Well I've brainstormed tire this week until i came across an image one of our big bosses posted here... One good trade per week is enough to grow an account and with unlimited time limit all it will take is time....
Secondly I remembered the account im playing around with is 200k account, with 20k as capital so thats equivalent of 20million,
If i make 500 from that account monthly that 500k even if i start to find work now... I no sure say i go see work wey go pay that amount in 2 years time....
So I've decided to create a ftmo 200k trail account....
I will be aiming for 65 pips every week

Will take the next three months to test run this new stuff if i can hit 65 pips consistently 8weeks out of 12, thats a good progress, so it will eventually take 18 months to conclude phase one and phase two ....
Its far right but i then remembered I've already spent three months and im still in red, so why hurry when i can take it slowly....
So i will still be updating my record like i use to before i deviated due to bad habbit


200k account is 0.9% in DD.
6k account 2.5% in DD
And 10k account 5.4% in Dd.
Its a mess

Part 2

the structure

Let's say since June, people who have hit 10% on TFT competition account and were awarded prop accts should be at least 5. That's at $250 A month. Calculating from June till September and that gets you a whopping 1k. And we don't really have a lot to show for it. I'm not saying that the traders are the problem, i'm just thinking that if we tackle this from another perspective, we could make really significant headway.I'm thinking this is what meshpips was trying to tell us sometime back but i guess the message didn't come across well.

Now we can all say based on how active most of us have been here that when it comes to analysis, guys like charly20, Abhams, kozmicity, davigle,fxcandles, nzechu and lanshile

Under risk management, we have dmahns, donsheddy, charly20,

And then traders, officialP, realone12, greatcheers, pipsmarshall elliotwaveforec

By traders, I mean people who have conquered the fear of putting on trades and waiting till those trades hit tp

If there's a way we can each apply these strengths under one name, I think we would most definitely make progress. This way the work load is shared and everybody has something to learn from each other on a fundamental basis. This project is one that would benefit the whole group, both intellectually and cash wise.

Part 3

planning

Back to the money, I think it's safe to say that at least, 60-70% of traders on fta reside in/near Lagos. Now if that same 1k could be spent in another way. Ie a flat is rented at maybe 250-300, for a year. If we don't feel safe with this deal, it could be cut down for 6 months. And then the rest of the money is channeled into getting maybe 3 × 50k prop accts and these accounts are given to people who we can all say are good traders. Acting on trade ideas that are generated from the analyst and have already been decided on by the group (samfelly). With position sizing restrictions alreasy laid out with entry and exit plans already in place.

If we could tackle it from this angle, people will have to see it differently because what you're doing now is in line with your core strength and the pressure that comes with trading could be somewhat alleviated.

Example, an analyst who's scared of putting on his trades or a great trader who closes his trades too early won't have a choice to exhibit these characters again cos the choice is no longer in his hands again.

This could prove to be a reliable solution to the problem of moving everybody here forward and resources will be put to better use. It's a solution where everyone comes out on top long term.
Nice

Impatience
Indiscipline

Which one is stopping you from profiting in the forex market? And what are you doing to overcome it?

Impatience has been hitting me lately.
And dragging me back and forth.

I kept going through short tweets on trading psychology to overcome the impatience of late.
Impatience and lack of discipline messing me up badly
