"Practice..."
The best people in any field are those who devote the most hours to
"deliberate practice." It's activity that's
explicitly intended to improve performance, that reaches for
objectives just beyond one's level of competence, provides feedback on
results and involves high levels of repetition.
For example: Simply hitting a bucket of balls is not deliberate
practice, which is why most golfers don't get better. Hitting an
eight-iron 300 times with a goal of leaving the ball within 20 feet of
the pin 80 percent of the time, continually observing results and
making appropriate adjustments, and doing that for hours every day -
that's deliberate practice.

There are two forces acting upon us: Suffering pushes us forward from behind and pleasures entice us and pull us forward.

I didnt reply to your pm, so i will add my two cents here. But again, all this stuff is just something that you are going to to need to see for yourself. No one wants to think that this is true and thinks a person can just say, when this happens then do that. Doesn't work like that, at least the way i do it it doesn't.
trade 1
was good one. What did it miss your TP by a pip, and you held it for a 5 pip loss?
Trade 2
H1 momo already got tested, it held it came back. Now it is getting tested again, but the new PA into it is different. You shorted right back into a engulfing m5 bar. I would consider that entry low odds at that point in time.
trade 3
The bias is no longer long at this point and has been short for a while. It hit a h1 shoulder and look at the h1 bar in the background. huge spike running the stops from the other pivot. i am not saying you cannot trade long where you did, as i was long that too. but once it doesn't go you can't just stay in it and hope.
i took a +4 on that one. Doesn't matter, you just have to look at it and realize the thing isn't going up so just get out of it.
will post a few charts of what i am talking about later

Nice trading Doji congrats on your success.
Once again this is ANOTHER person that has not taken the IDEAS that have been presented as a 100% METHOD, and has found a way to make it work for him.
people who try and do EXACTLY what other people are doing will probably not be able to do it. You have to make it all fit in a way that you can understand it.
same thing, looked a little different on spot according to this broker
Bend over and assume the position for another 4 years of hope and change.

Great post Pebbletrader and BB,
Practice is not only repetition of the same over and over, you need
to review your results for make improvements in that task...you guys make
a very good point.
Btw Pebble i read "The power of now", great book thanks for talking about it.

The NOW is powerful, but so is hoping into a "time machine" and traveling out into the future (to make sure we are headed in the right direction).
Mastery of Past, Present and Future is the ultimate goal.
It's knowing when to go back in time, stay in the here and now or time travel out into the future
This applies to life and trading.
Most people focus mainly on Past and Future and do not spend enough time in the now.

I will suggest another book which you will absolutely love.
It's called, "Zen and The Art Of Poker".
When you read it just replace the poker terms with trading terms. It's a book about poker, but you would not believe how much of it applies to trading, it could have easily of been a trading book.

"Zen and The Art Of Poker"
Agree PT, 100%. Bought that about 3 years ago and it's one of the best "trading" books I've ever read.
Another great book I'd suggest for traders is "Golf Is Not A Game of Perfect", by Dr. Bob Rotella. Just replace golf terms with trading terms. After all, "Trading Is Not A Game of Perfect" either.

es / pip thankyou very much for response
in this example, for go long, you wait the price reach the area and go to 5 min TF for look the entry ?
or wait the price reach the area, and you see how the price reacts ( waiting for close the 1H candle) and then go to 5 min Tf for look the entry ?
