Monthly review for April: boring month, 0.5% over 9 trades, missed 1 great trade, short on GU 10.4. Wasn't much else to do. Without that one mistake on 11.4 I would've made 4.5%. And yes it's dumb that I have entry exit target and rules that say ...

Quite a legendary chart, not gonna lie. At least I know what my biggest weakness is.

God it is absurd how much money I have left on the table simply due to not being able to hold my trades all the way to TP. I am currently up 2% on the $50k FTMO challenge that I started in October. If I had held every trade of the past couple months ...

I took 6 trades in March and it was one of the best months in a while. Still made some mistakes and had I not closed GBP/USD shorts early I would've passed the FTMO challenge which I'm still on. I also took 1 or 2 bad trades that were just not up to ...

Every time I try to trade other markets I just do my ass as Tom Dante says. I also missed great trade opportunities on the markets I do well on this week. Won't be trading anything outside of EU, GU, ES, NQ from now on. I have enough on my plate as ...

0.1 pips from TP on FTMO..... good start to the year lol I love trading

Conscious competence #2: I have a habit of targeting too far out. Don't do that, don't get greedy. Just target the obvious stops and take the 4R. Also don't mismanage it and close it early.

I love studying old PA to see that markets have moved the same way for a long time. Here's a clean H1 setup just like the ones I trade, in February 2002. H1 SFP and MSB, pullback to supply, target clean lows. Volume was lower back then but the logic ...

H1 supply in H12 supply. Very strong move away, valid zone. In line with H12 structure. After we sweeped the W1 highs and put in some small range candles I think a pullback could be expected. Could target a lot lower for potential 9R. Reacted ...

Not trading week 1, but here's a clean trade: range high deviated, broke lower on H12, at range high / -breaker. Clean H1 supply zone, very strong reaction. TP at range midpoint stops.

Imagine if I hadn't closed this early like this. The amount of cash I've lost out on due to closing trades early and not taking good trades is obscene. I still have a long way to go.

Finally, December PnL: I really like these calendars, when I have a month I'm really proud of I'm putting it on the wall

FTMO challenge update - 2.5 months, back to breakeven. it will basically be like starting a fresh challenge next year. no use in typing a lot but I really feel like I have hit my groove here.

Solid week. +2.8R, but could have been 3.9R if I had just held this long (closed manually for 0.1R):

Example from Abetrade @ tradingriot.com on market structure, this is why the EU long was not valid.
- shuckle replied Dec 12, 2023
It's only Wednesday but there's 3 things I can improve on: EU long I should not have taken this. The H1 MSB just isn't there. It didn't actually break structure just traded above a random swing high. Not clean, not a A+ 5* setup. image GU long ...

Shit execution. I had the 2R planned to the H12 clean highs. Good trade idea, H12 +SFP and H1 break of structure and good demand zone to enter at the level. 1 min before CPI I thought man this will be a big move, fuck it move the TP all the way up ...

Good week. One thing to focus on for next week, and forever: get out at the level. Just take the obvious TP point and get out at it. Don't try to fill imbalances, don't try to go for 10R trades. Just take the 2.3R or 5R or whatever it offers and get ...

Yesterday I got screwed by the FTMO CFD spread. I was short NQ and the futures didn't stop me out but FTMOs CFD's did. Probably the biggest L I have taken in my career so far in terms of how brutal it was lol. Fun times fun times
