Aliassmith Beats a "Dead Horse"

[Mr. Hyde]

Well, I have to put down the ICT and other stuff.
I'm pretty much trained to scalp at this point and that other stuff clouds my judgment.
I lost $$$Thousands trying to change/try the ICT stuff and it's not worth it to me.
I cleared my mind and did my thing today with success.
I can and have made other methods work, they just don't fit my personality.
In the past scalping would burn me out, but I've learned to put the mouse down more often and take a break.

35 minutes (Gold, EUR, and SP500)
10 trades
8 wins
2 small losses

I have to be me to keep this train rollin'

Wow…losing $Ks for testing is reckless, why didn’t you use demo for testing other people’s stuff?
Scalper. I’m on your side. The flip is all you need to turn a scalp into an anchor trade. I happen to post this stuff minutes ago. Go check. Maybe it’s something you might like. Method of course can vary but the general idea is there.

Whats more reckless. A few thousand or a few percent. Besides, Alais knows he can get that right back. I for one always use real money when testing ideas. It really burn it in your brain and makes it real.

I tried trading this FVG.
It took so long I bailed at about 1 pt.
Now that I look at it it's a H1 zline also.

update: price moved up about 4 pts. so far...UGH!

According to 'number' of ICT rules, these four down red candles is the orderblock (sharp snap down, then a spring out of it). If it coincides with your FVG on your right, it's a good level.

Still observing myself but most of the time it seems following those rules.

If i was more patient I could have got 10+ pts. Thats the way the cookie crumbles.

I agree 1,000 % with you

Of course Alias and you can do that because it's your money anyway and it's not like I'm telling Alias to do things. Everyone has their own way of doing things and in fact, I used to do that too. Alias is a good trader with more than enough trading balance to do many things he so wishes and with the trading skills that he has I have no doubt in my mind that he can recover from such a minuscule loss.

Haha. It was beyond stupid of me. Still making newbie mistakes.
