Instead of a "loss" think of it as buying information. Losses are just the price you pay for information.

Trading is relative, probably one of the great lessons you can learn. Trend is relative to how you define/quantify it whether it be structure, MAs, TLs, HH/HL etc. Keep in mind, your "trend" may just be the pullback of a greater "trend" and that ...

Marc, Have you tried tracking in depth data on each of your trades? Looking to improve your profit factor by capturing a better RR? For example, if instead of taking profit 1:1 move to BE at 1:1 and target 1:2? Or 1:1.5? And really capturing even ...

Agree on this, you need to be trading a five figure account at least, or have a much longer track record on a smaller account. I'd check with profitfarmer on this, I've read some of his posts and believe he's locked down some prop funds. Cubbybgood ...

Thanks for the feedback Marc. Didn't realize you were trading that many pairs, with enough trades a minor edge can be exploited. Good luck on this!

Hey Marc! I've read a couple of your posts across the forum and appreciate your input and thoughts. I'll be keeping an eye on your journey here. Just a suggestion, I'm sure you've already considered this but adding more pairs would increase the ...

Very well put Marc, you've covered much of my thoughts over the last year or so, so very much of trading is relative. Everyone says only this time frame or that, only this chart type, only this R:R will work or this win rate...there's so many ...

Thanks for your input Marc! I agree with much of what you've said, much more in line with my thought process that got me to this point. The market/price is just human sentiment and humans are creatures of habit which leads to the repetitive nature ...

Sorry, it seems my beginning post didn't convey clearly my thoughts and questions on this line of though. I wasn't looking to discuss time frame or chart preference, trading strategies or indicators, that's all subjective. There's literally millions ...

This is the best post in the entire thread. Amazing how everyone can get caught up so easily with a few thoughtful posts, myself included. Seek and pursue the market and price, not some "indicator" that has few posts showing 70% hit rate.

But you don’t need time to judge the strength of a move, or price. Look at the attached chart, I’ve blacked out the time, time is irrelevant to what is happening on that chart. And I assume you mean the opposite of what you said above, tick provides ...

You’re referring To the fractal nature of markets, which can also be applied to price. But fractals are seen all throughout creation. Different topic

I don’t disagree that time is important in general as far as financial markets go, news announcements, opening times etc. But more so how it relates to raw price. As far as what type a trader you are and what timeframe or chart types best fit your ...

Price exists outside of time, time is just a constraint or parameter we place on it. How do you ...

Market structure, also known as the Dow theory. Simple but overlooked. Puts you on the right side 70%+.

It's just a confusing/mysterious way of saying use the open as your filter, buy if the market is above the open, sell if the market is below. I haven't seen any statistical data to back up this theory. I've kept it in mind from time to time but ...
