After you done 10,000 trades, five minutes after you get done, you won't even remember the day. Any positive day is a good day, start training yourself in being profitable each day, like other day you pulled yourself out of a hole, awesome day.
Yesterday pretty much beat out of me the thought of raising my targets. I knew today I would strictly follow the plan. Resigning myself to only 15 ticks I felt a sense of , IDK, loss of control, loss of hope for a big win ? Well, anyway. I can adjust later . For now it's just creating discipline and following a plan that I know makes money. Excellent, calm focused trading today. Nearing rollover makes me cautious. A fair amount of chop today that I avoided. Only 3 trades but all winners which means, of course, +45 ticks. Today I was proud to be a rat. I'm not trading tomorrow. Heading out of town for a couple nights, leaving in the a.m. For the week + 39 CL ticks and +5.25 NQ pts. Lots of trades this week so only about $ 265 net. But green is good. I absolutely plan on better discipline next week. Part of me thinks , I hope I can do it and part of me knows I will.
So you not using any discipline and you made money for the week? We both know you are maxing out on each day of staying focused on discipline, but you want to learn to accept more of what your Trading Plan shows to have worked in past cause the guy you hired to trade the plan is lousing it up of what you should be making, Right? One guy made the plan and different one is trading it, one who trading it can't talk to the Planner till market is over for the day. Try thinking of it that way. You were profitable, go have relaxing time off.
========================= This yo yo shit is irritating as hell - but..., I'm keepin shut - mostly Safe and enjoyable time off J RN
Oh, no, I can assure you will have plenty more ahead of you, just cause you get to be consistently profitable, there be many times where you do something and get disgusted with trading. Wait till it gets to be a job. lol
At some point.., I trust..., you'll know When you get to the that point - is when you'll be fed up..., and change Because there will be absolutely no other option remaining (other than quitting of course) ========================================= Presently you're in between and betwixt trading the right way..., and reverting to the old ways That vast desolate expanse between knowing the right thing..., and actually doing the right thing Many know it.., and can even recite it chapter and verse Traders do it ================================== Eagerly waiting for that day when you know RN
