Aliassmith Beats a "Dead Horse"

[aliassmith]

This week I had a nice week trading the deadhorse.
True, there were mistakes but nothing epic.
I took a total of +17R which is by far the best result I had so I'm glad with my result.

Also I found out why I feel my trading is a bit wobbly. A lot of my trades are just +1R. Which means that in case of a losing trade I am back to where I started. The way I see it is that there are 2 ways to solve this; krank up my win % and/or try to get more +1.5R trades.
Either way...I need more practice and go back to my plan because I wasn't very good in sticking to my plan; don't interfere with my trades and let them run to 1.5X.
I find it extremely interesting to see why I wasn't able to stick to my plan....It's not that something terrible will happen if I stick to my plan and I fail....
The demo account is just monopoly money...
Still...why is it so hard?

Enough gibbering on your thread....
Next week:
More 1.5+R trades.
More aggression in my trades; I'm here for the money
More accounts; because I am experimenting I need to find a way to do this on different accounts because I messed up my stats by polluting my data with trades that shouldn't be in there.

Also I will skip the not interfering with my trades...my data might show it's more profitable, it also feels stupid.

17R is a good week.
Its time to focus on only trading the same way.
Stop working on data so much and work on execution.

I will!
I would also like to practice and learn how to get wicked in properly after a momo candle so I will see if I can try that.

When browsing through the threads you can see how many times a picture has been viewed...
Most charts are viewed hundreds of times!
I understand that Aliases margarita is viewed 546 times but I find it hard to believe that the 5 of us are viewing those same charts 100 times each so I know you are reading too.

That is ok.
However, participating boosts your learning path. Look at me..I am so happy that I finally started talking.
So, here is an invitation just for you to introduce yourself...

Tell me...who are you?

This is so frustrating.
I also lost my Monday earings on Tuesday so I am back where I started

There is no past or future, just what you have NOW and what you are going to do with it TODAY.

I have chosen to do 1 more NOW and took X8.
(Only because I was too slow moving my TP further up)

I think that many of these losses will be avoided as you gain experience. . .

I do hope so because it can really drain your battery.
I don't think I understand the blue lines...looks like SR but why are they where they are?
With the red lines I can work...just never thought about this. I guess I am too focused on other things.
