All your trades should end in one of four ways: 1. A small win 2. A big win 3. A small loss 4. Break even You should never experience a big loss. If you can get rid of big losses, you have a great chance of being profitable for years to come. ⁦ @SJosephBurns ⁩ posted this

Best thing about trading is that it humbles you. It teaches you that it’s ok to make mistakes. It’s part of the learning process. All you have to do is show up each day and keep smiling. Then one day you will say. I got this. 🙂💤💤

Fx trading goes something like this. How hard can it be. Buy if it’s going up. Sell if it’s going down. 🙂 When that fails 99% of people go on an endless search for the perfect system that doesn’t exist. 🙂 Those who make it simply use a simple system and control risk 🙂

Just keep trading on a demo or very small. Don’t trade with real money if you are continuously losing. Learn to identify levels. Then one day it will all come together. Never Give Up. 🙂

Statistically going back 5 years the next 3 hours is the best time to scalp #EURUSD in my opinion. The 2nd best time is 2am to 5am NYT. Realising this years ago helped me to stop over trading and focus on the times that count. Hope it helps someone. 🙂

Taking a few months off to travel. Haven’t done it for years. If you are serious about learning to trade talk to @timkirkfx or @waltervannelli My 2 cents worth is just study price action during 2am to 5am and 7am to 9 am. NEW YORK TIME. That’s where the action is. Good luck. 🙂

All your trades should end in one of 4 ways. A small win. A big win. A small loss. You should never experience a big loss. If you do the above you will eventually become a professional trader. 🙂

When I started trading fx in about 2001 I was a big fan of Richard Donchian the father of trend following. So I still do it but on a one minute chart at specific times. No big deal. No analysis required. Just need momentum. Hence the 7-9 New York time slot.

There is no holy grail. If there is it is the ability to focus your mind on a simple system that you can repeat day after day. Win some lose some. But stop searching for the perfect system. It doesn’t exist. There are analysts and traders. The later make the money. 🙂

My opinion only to save yourself a lot of time and money. Buy or sell around daily central pivot. Wait for the market to come to you. Don’t chase it. If you are wrong get out and add if you are right.

There is no magic bullet but the one fact that will kill your account is over leveraging and over trading. Traders go on tilt because they don’t have a plan. So they are at the mercy of their emotions. Keep your leverage low and relax. It’s a marathon not a sprint. 🙂

The Average true range on the eurusd on daily is 108 pips. As a trader we only have to get 20 of those pips each day to make a good living. It’s all about the time of day you trade not about endless hours of analysis. That’s why it’s called trading not analysing. Keep it simple.

There is a huge difference between an analyst and a trader. Traders have the ability to make money on any given day while analysts make predictions on what may happen. Be a trader. 🙂

The main reason I only look for shorts is obviously the euro is in a major downtrend but also it makes me focus on a particular set up and also cuts down on the number of trades I take and when I look for trades. My aim is to be in the market for minimum time for maximum results

This business is 90% mental attitude. Everything in your life will show up in your trading. Use a demo or micro account until you get yourself sorted out. The market is the best teacher but it takes time.

The market is the best teacher. You can hear and read countless times that trading less is more. But until you stop staring at the screen looking for trades that aren’t there nothing will change. One day you will just stop have an epiphany of sorts and start trading sensibly.

You must be confident to trade well. So if you are not. Stop trading real money. Go to demo. Work out a plan and stick to it. Doing that will give you confidence to try again. Winning is a mindset. It is a serious business. Treat it as such.

Warning if you scalp the lower timeframes. 1 or 5 minutes your stop must be a max of 10 pips trailing. That is why you must only trade when MOMENTUM is clearly apparent on the screen. Therefore at specified hours. Keep it simple.

The hardest thing to do when you start trading is pick one simple strategy that works and stick to it. The reason why most people fail is that they are on an end less quest to find the perfect system. It doesn’t exist. There in lies the cause of continuing failure. 🙂☕️

London opens at 6.30pm my time. So over the years I have learnt to scalp the London open. I have found it more profitable to pick up 20 pips or so and walk away. Also if I get it wrong I also walk away as there is always tomorrow. Less screen time = Better life 🙂🍻

If you want to overcome (over trading),(monkey mind), (Tilt).🙂Just understand there are only a few hours each day that are worth trading. Those hours are in my opinion after 22 years (2am - 5am)and (7am - 9am)NEW YORK time. Study those hours. It is obvious.

Todays move was unusual. ATR on daily #eurusd it is currently about 108 pips. A trader/Scalper only needs 15 to 20 pips a day. I don’t chase big moves. Used to trade 2am to 5am NEW YORK time but find 7am to 9am is better now. Just follow price. The market is the best teacher.

I have been trading fx for 20 years now. 10 years full time. Spent 20 years in my own successful Real Estate Business. Everything is about risk reward and leverage. If you can’t set stops in a sensible manner with sensible leverage you will do damage to your account and yourself.
