Re: Ioannis's journal
I have to review the trades of that batch. I am glad to finish it. I must write a good trading plan for the second batch. I feel relaxed and more disciplined. That is a major change to my trading

The Consistent Pursuit of DS1
The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".
I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.
