I just started a memoir to document my journey in forex too in the diary section. my hope is that we could both hold each other accountable so neither of us backslide and also to keep the motivation strong.
Yes Boss we can do that.
I am working on a Mechanical Trading System with a Low RR and high win rate. already testing it on a Free FTMO Challenge. Backtested data is very promising i am forward testing now before going live again.

I hate slow pairs. I want to be done with my trade as soon as possible, profit or loss.
AH slow Pairs are Joy killers, never going near that Pair again
InvestmentRe: Documenting My Forex Trading Journey by FXtrader2025(op): 10:08am On Apr 04, 2025
So i went back to the Drawing Board after taking lots of losses and blowing accounts.
I have been trading a particular Strategy for like a Year now and to be honest its been hell of a ride.
Even though its not advisable to change strategies but I believe having a Strategy with less complication suits me most. And also i learned that My Focus and Patience Threshold is not much.


So i started test Running a New Strategy on an FTMO free Challenge and the Results are kind of Good
Quick Trades 1:2RR and i spend less than 1hr or lets 2hr Max in the Market its either TP or SL
And the results is going good
I will take around 3 Free FTMO through out the Month of April to test it Properly and build Confidence in it.

Follow up post,

If btc finds support around the 76k region, because if 76k doesn’t hold, we can get towards 73k - 70k region


then we can watch again

So we are getting hopes that this drop would reach 76k

Do you trade crypto futures too? Well that's my line of interest and all the problems you highlighted as the reasons for your losses is exactly what is causing my own losses in trading. However I'm hoping to improve on it when I get back to the market soon.

The pain left me when i decided to close the chart and do something else grin. Before NeXT week i wouldn't even remember it again.
@bolded, same to you too. I actually use this thread of yours as motivation and some form of accountability too. I wanted to create a thread similar to yours documenting my journey but i know i wont be consistent enough to see it through the end(i don't like writing a lot)
Do you swing trade?
Yes Boss i Prefer Swing Trading.

Yeah, got my self out of drawdown(2%) looking forward to passing my phase 1 challenge account next week or more. no pressure.
Missed a trade that hurts so much it felt like i took a loss grin. could have been up 3% .
Lol you see that Pain, dump it now o dont carry it to Next week, it will make you take shitty trades.
The Funny thing that happened to me was my Account was like 7.5% in drawdown and max drawdown was 8% so i concluded that the account was gone.
Took a trade yesterday and made 3% lol.
I will be getting a new Account though, you know Prop Firms are thieves sometimes they wont tell you that you made a mistake or violated a rule until you’ve passed the Challenge.

Wish you all the Best Man

[quote author=Ebus03 post=134611246][/quote]Thanks for the Words of Encouragement Boss.
Lack of Patience and FOMo is my Problem for now and i will work on it.
The Funny thing is last year, i was planning on purchasing a PS4 console just to take my mind away from the Chart but for some reasons I can’t remember i couldn't buy the the Console.
I am having trading addiction
But the Plan is to just spend a certain amount of time on the Chart. No Setup i will just close it and do otjer things.

But why boys no fi go find these herdsmen? I’m disappointed In the government of the state.
I just wonder why things like this should happen in this age and time. E doesn’t make sense. Thanks to one Nigeria



No comment; next question
Typical Nigerian, so the State Government has the power to send Police or the Military to chase the Herdsmen right? Or are the so called Boys the Government?

I think you should get a book and write your trade plan in it. You can ask chatgpt for a trade plan template.just keeping it in your head is not enough. I don't journal my trade but having a 20 pages worth of information filled with my trade plan help me stay organized!. I go over this while I am about to open a position, I go over it during the weekends, Are you a swing trader? I found out that I was very disciplined following my trade plan as a Player than a day trader!

I still think it risk management though! In January of this year I had a 40% win rate but I still made 8.51% in profit that month.

About the FOMO part, that a real sh*t you got there. Although I am not 100% free from FOMO, following my trade plan helped me IMMENSELY! The realization that so long as I have an edge put in a plan made me know there will ALWAYS be setup!
Thats the Plan Boss.
I will write my Trading Plan and Checklist then paste it on my Laptop whenever i will be taking a trade.
I blew the Accounts not because of Risk Management but because of emotions, i got frustrated and just blew the whole thing! You know there are times you just feel like you've hit a wall.
I was so disciplined last year, i was swing trading then, but due to just trying to move fast, i started scalping which was my greatest undoing.
i will just Start Sticking to my Plan henceforth. I got burnt chasing early gratification.

After a loss I cut risk in half. I never risk more than 1 percent per trade. If I take a 1%loss I use 0.5% risk on the next trade. If I take a 0.5% loss I use a 0.25% risk on the next trade. It will take me 15 to 18 losses back to back for me to blow my funded challenge account currently!

If your risk is very minimal, you won't revenge trade as it will mean nothing to you(I am assuming you have accepted losses as part of the game here). But what do I know huh I am still in the process of passing my challenge account.
Its not like i am over risking. I have been trading the Account since November ‘24. The Frustration of making 3 steps forward and 5 backwards is whats killing me.
And the thing is i find it very hard to do the boring things, like Going through my Journal before taking a trade, Making sure i have a checklist before pressing the buy or sell button and to cap it all conquering my inner demons!! Especially FOMO
I will do everything right but just fckup when its the moment of Truth.
I will be Funding my Live Account and Get a New Prop account for Next week.
Talking about losses i am so neck deep that i cant quit. Besides it doesnt even bother me because i can afford to blow the Challenge accounts and also afford to blow $100 account.
My problem is, I wanted to move very fast which is counterproductive in FX.
All the same we go again and again until Victory!!

Impatience!! FOMO, i just have to be super rigid and disciplined.

Week 3
Day 2.

10k Prop Firm account and Live Account all blown!!

Not in a good emotional state To Trade.
Will be on the Sidelines again until Next Week!!

Risk Management ✅
Technical ✅
Psychology ❌

Lack Of Patience is my main problem!!
Well it is what is.
Going to work on Patience (Impulses) and FOMO.
I take Decisions out of FOMO and forget about my Trading Plan.
Never again.
