    Method is tested like the vaccine, so barely, but damn the torpedo's full speed ahead, start with E2T Gauntlet few trades with demo live account copy, then live live asap.

    Wait for a direction, join direction, or for a cluster, no trades are taken where the SL will likely cost more than the upside, 3x's the upside is prefered, I know the rules, put the MAN back in the box and be a professional trades FFS ( he says going to the gym soon to get pumped LOL )

    Yep, Gym = Testosterone = STUPID RUSHED MANLY trades.

    I know why I trade bad every time I go to the gym, having a hot chocolate, likely need to wear some pink leg ins or something, flush it all out.

    SIM SIM for a bit, get head back in the game!!

    Demo doing well, back on Gauntlet, increasing position size to 5 MNQ's, single position, multiple positions across both charts mainly moving multiple SL's / TP's on the MT4 are a pain in the ass. More time moving lines and fighting with them than watching the damn chart LOL


    Calm and Centred and Patient, not MAN stupid pumped up.

    Likely Stop Gym in the day, after Close only, walk in the day then Gym 9pm till 11pm, I traded badly after a 30mile bike ride the other day aswell had to abort thinking about it.

    Also came to the conclusion, I'm Long Biased like crazy, I can only trade long markets well and when short I don't trust it won't reverse so I stupidly move the SL my way.

    Working on all issues, had noticed very very very few short trades.

    So trade Long markets Live then back onto Demo / Sim when it turns down to practice and gain faith in that, not 100% sure why like :(

    E2T screwed, back to demo for a few days, sort out my issues, then sign up for the 50K for $85 cancel the weak pussy 25K, sorted!!

    Daily LossLimit exceeded, this time it spotted it and stopped my trading :(

    From 87% profit rate, to every damn trade reverses and kills me, WTF!!

    Need to rewrite how I trade, the more directional market is killing me in short :(

    So far looking like a..........

    Envelope 13Ema 0.01% and 0.04% is a damn good directional bias to trade with.

    So trade mainly off that, trying to enter with direction in the 0.01% range, with SL out to the 0.04% range, manually closing if the 13's direction changes.

    Then a 5ema Low and High seperately.

    Try to trade more inteligently with the wind behind my sails and a fixed SL area, the High and Low based area means big bars = big SL size, which is what's screwing me over.

    Demo, Demo, Demo, next week 50K $85 per month account, back on it!! ( IF This works live tomorrow ofcourse )

    Stop switching between demo and live.
    Keep taking your setups and the odds will work in your favor.

    Backtest new method MNQ today, normal +30min start time.

    remember this up thrust, cause I trades it a few times before getting greedy at 15xMNQ and getting slapped when it failed hard cause moving SL and all that good stuff LOL

    Move down, no way to call, cluster, back in 13's range so

    KISS, 13's got downtrend, short spot 12522 SL 30, fake up move then tank, good for a lot of pts and a few entries.

    Turns back up, perfect entry up.

    Works well, see if I can handle it live tomorrow live Demo.

    DAX doesn't look great I'll admit.

    New method looking great, join 13ema direction, good win rate, great risk/reward, lets see how long this lasts before becoming a 100% loser.

    How many years, this looks great, cracked it, millionaire in no time, 100% losers nooooo repeat!
