Yikes,
That was a perfect setup.
I didn't ride that whole move. Just showing some moves that happen all the time where you can get 1 % a week.

How is that?
Trading the EURUSD on the 5m chart you can use .5 lot or $5 a pip. You will risk about $20 per trade with a goal of making 20 pips in a week.
A week not per day!
We are trying to under achieve
No stress you can laugh at your $20 loss or .2% loss.
So you are underachieving and you are making your goal of 1% per WEEK.
Now what?
Because you invested $450 in yourself your account will earn you $300 in 6 week and increase to $40,000.
Making 1% a week, with everyone laughing at you because you can only make 1% per week, in 10 more weeks you earn $2000 and your account increases to $80,000
Getting mocked by every single youtuber and forum guru because you only make 1% a WEEK you keep going and in 10 more weeks you make $4000 and your account increases to $160,000.
Something is going on.
You just made $400 a week on average.
But how is that possible?
Everyone laughs at you becuse you only make 1% a week.
TBC...

I was going to say, before alias beat me to it, that Jerry Springer was fairly entertaining in the beginning.
But after a while.... Meh.

i thought after 5 yrs, "Ok, I've put in the time of a college grad. time to make my first $500k"
I thought after a decade. "I can still make more than a doctor easy, just do this ONE thing".
I thought after 13 yrs. "ok, now. "I'll practice this IOF Entry drill via the FVG for 3-6 mo. and it's a go"
You simply do not understand the power of the human psyche OR the genetic fear that is instilled in others from birth.
Something is amiss for people like the Zline guy. (dude from russia or where ever and had the zline thread) A total failure no matter what he touched.
In life and in the charts. I think he was an artist though.
Something has got to GIVE.
Some of us will NEVER quit.
Some may never succeed either, but won't know until they close the coffin.
If you only look at your post you will know why you fail. Many people have told you. You always pull the ego, the victim, the woe is me, card.
I've seen it for the last 14 years or what ever. The guy is/was luca I believe. He had the same woe is me mentality.
I bet a guy a few years back, that if he surrendered to my teachings he can make money trading currencies. All he did was what I told him nothing more nothing less.
I think you have an internal fear of being successful or failure and you continue to deflect from doing the positive actions.
There is definitely some self sabotage going on.
Yup, I'm afraid to be wrong, even if there is NO money on the line.
Also, I don't need to make a penny and really do enjoy my current lifestyle.
Another dad gum 2 week "vacation" trip coming up Tue.
I could use a few more race car parts or some turbo truck upgrades but I already have so many new parts stacked up in the garage that are not being put to use it's rather ridiculous.
Something that made great sense I read recently was Buffet's 25:5 rule.
Your 50/reset rule I'm sure will work well too.
In the meantime let me go back to this:
