Lesson for the weekend: Topic is consistency.
Now that the market is closed, do you reflect on your past trades or you just move on? This I do on a regular and enjoy doing it. One of the things I look at is what I will discuss in a bit; that is trades duration distribution.

I have taken a picture of my account's trades duration distribution, thoroughly look through and I expect that you should be able to digest, deduce, extract a lot of information from the statistics. I will leave the lessons you learn from it to you and to you alone; if you want to say what you deduce from it, feel free - I'll make my comment on whatever you see/say.

U don't judge base on this criteria sir.. I have been using hantec for a while now n they fall under these criteria listed n they have not failed
There are good brokers who do not meet this criteria. But any broker that meets this criteria must be a good broker, at least based on market standard.

Let me put it this way, not every Buka is unhygienic in their food business. However, someone who actually doesn't play with hygiene will definitely head straight to a fast food to eat.

So there are brokers that are good that doesn't come into this criteria but if you want to limit the chances of heading into a bad one, there are things one must look out for.

Boss, I do not think there is a basics for searching for a good broker, it all depends on your strategy and what u want

I understand that there might brokers who don't fit into all these criteria that are okay. However, once you start scaling up your funds you will understand exactly why a broker choice is important. If you trade a 100k usd account for instance, every spread will count, every swap will count, every platform freeze will count, and lots more.

The longer the duration, the less likelihood of recording losses.

In other words, 2 weeks duration is okay.

What does the numbers on the x-axis stand for?

1) You cut losing trades and allow winning trades to run.

2) You have more losing trades than you won. But still profitable. Profitable trades (15) vs Lost trades (+ or - 22).

3) You closed most of your losing trades after a day or 2.

x is time, I guess you meant y, which is a form of profit or loss distribution

1) You cut losing trades and allow winning trades to run.
You nailed this, was really expecting it. I was also expecting that you would use this your particular extract to deduce the trading style of the trader here

2) You have more losing trades than you won. But still profitable. Profitable trades (15) vs Lost trades (+ or - 22).
You nailed this too. This teaches us that it is NOT only by winning trades, we should not expect WIN! WIN!! WIN!!! all the time. In fact, losing more than the wins don't determine the overall outcome of a trader. This is why I don't shy from announcing my losses here after I post my analysis.
Finally, connect point 1 and 2, then we deduce that 1 tells us that those losses are not huge cos "I cut the losses and let profits run"


3) You closed most of your losing trades after a day or 2.
Right, this corroborates no.1 in terms of duration. 1 & 3 now means that losing trades cut in a day or 2. Still on point

Though there are 1 or 2 more, but overall, you nailed it.

I think that's a practical definition of proper risk management (cut ur losses quickly and maximize ur profit).

Most of your winning trades did not pass 3 days or 2 days plus in this particular chart.

The ones that were more than 3 days rained good pips and moved very well for you to have left it than long.

4 out of the 5 trades that you left running for more than 3 days were closed after 8 days 22hrs.

Also, from the chart, the losing trades didn't pass -1.00. Whatever that means.

Maybe drawdown.

"The Trend is not your friend, it is your stop loss which prevent you from losing big that is your friend" - Tony,142





Who ever doubt this my quote should try and trade without a stop loss, then come back and tell us your story cool


The Trend is your friend.

If a currency is trending down then you short pull back, there is a higher tendency of making profits without a stoploss.

A stop loss is a tool, not your friend. The trend is your friend because you know which players are currently dominating the markets. When the market is in an Uptrend, you Buy pull backs. The only scenario where you lose money is when the trend is reversing.

Like he rightly said building a small account is an Herculean task. Number one is u tend to use high leverage which puts ur account at risk. Secondly using a small account u tend to to set high monthly target. 10% monthly target on a $100 account size is just $10 and to anyone's it's not worth the effort all through d month. But on a $10000 acc size it's massive profit. I had this issue when trading my $500 acc last year and at the end of the most I was not making profit commensurate with d effort monthly. This lead to me overtrading at times cos I wanted to make at least 30% monthly. U know d story; it always end in tears. I even started doubting my strategy. But in September I stumbled on blufx a prop firm. I tried thier conditions for some weeks on a demo acc before subscribing to thier 55 pounds monthly subscription in mid October made about 8% profit from the $25000 trading fund I was given. I can tell u if u know u can trade sign up with a prop firm instead of trying to grow a $100 acc. I will try out FTMO next month. i heard they have a flexible trading condition unlike blufx with very low leverage of 1:3 and u can't keep trade overnight unless u are on a higher subscription.

I can relate, too - Overtrading and Greed!

We are in season 21. And some beginers are still asking for resources to learn about this market. That is first sign of unseriousness. If you are truly willing and ready to learn. You will go back to reading the past seasons. Every resources you need are there.
Many have asked for books to read but did nothing after getting those books.
If you want more books on fx, join this group on telegram, https:///forexbookz or @forexbookz. Books plenty there and will even tire you. Lol

On prop firm,
I am not against using them but the truth is if you are not able to trade demo or small live account profitably for some time, chances are that you will not get it right trading big size account.
We need to work on our psychology and money management, study the business model of this prop firm, you will see that they set rules that will safeguard their money and make it difficult for you to lose far beyond what you have deposited. Incorporate this practice in your personal account too.
Face the reality and stop running after short cuts. Stop asking for strategies, learn to study the charts, compare charts posted here with your chart. Discipline your self to trading 0.01 lot. Its small money per pip but it is just what your account size can take for now. Use 1:25 leverage too, it will automatically prevent you from over trading.
Start doing things differently if you want a different and better outcome in this market.
Take the affirmative step this year to stop losing all your money.





These right here are some serious advice. If I have all the time, I'll just go back in past Seasons and read up. No qualms I'll simply join that telegram group @infofirst suggested and enjoy what I can there.

@Infofirst, thanks a lot
