@Michal

you disappeared again and reappearing now. Things roll in your favour and you suddenly stop. If I were you and I had hit a gold mine like you did before your holidays, i'd have thrown the holiday tickets into bin. because what you were doing, could buy you a life time of holiday. get on with it mate... take it seriously. its a great opportunity.
wish you many pips and consistent success.

Those pictures are from monday and tuesday. I wont be able to post a picture probably every day now as apart from my day work , gym i took and evening classes for sth too on monday and wednesday. So im really lacking on time to prep pictures. I'll do my best and most of the time will catch up with those on thursday when im off.

Discipline score:

Trade 1=Fruit entry + add on 1
Trade 2=Aims brekout - my aftermath is that i rushed it to quick should have wait for red dot 0
Trade 3= Aims breakout with 2 add ons . Exited on green. better exit was on fruit - easy for me to say now 1
Trade 4= Fruit entry 1
Trade 5= Aims breakout 1
Trade 6= Aims brekout. 1
Trade 7= Aims breakout. Should wait for more clear situtation wave looked exhausted 0
trade 8= i didnt get a fruit but assumed at that time wave is finished so decided to take it. But not fruit so shouldn't 0
really i guess.
Trade 9= In pictured i put a number wrong. Aims brekout 1

Total score : 6/9 - not really great result. need to work on my entries to be more disciplined

thank you all have a nice evening :-bd

Thank you Sam

Believe me Immy i got enough of this craziness.... but with the gym trading and mt classess it take my time completely. Sometimes the only time when i sit on my ass is when doing charts and going to bed. and on top of that i got strict diet for 5 meals a day with exact calories... so imagine it does take my time to prep all that in the kitchen.... but on the other hand that's why i know trading can give me that piece of mind and when will be doing it full time without my day job i definately wont rush at all .... those days are coming that's what im saying until it become my reality :D:D

So thank you for showing me the way to those days 8-}

Hey to all after a small time break due to no time or put it this way very limited time.

My trading: Up to today my trading didnt change at all. I was still trading only Dax m1 Fruits, AA, and S1 S2.My account is growing(still not millions though :ymdaydream: ) but obviously there is up days and down days. Recently i've noticed state of my mind has changed.I felt like i was over trading by trying to catch end of a waves. So when good fruit appeared ( lately not even good :( ) i took it. Problems started when i've notice i got annoyed by that and sometimes was in revenge. After the session when was analysing i saw its becoming my problem which needs to be eliminated. So i decided to take up to 3 counter fruits only within a wave if it wont go i give up :). But didnt really worked out :)
So :

I decided to trade only Adam's apple fruits and try to trade seeds as well. As this way i feel like i wont be overtrading + the biggest advantage i see is : going with the trend not against it which increase odds of success. I hope it will help me to become better trader.

I will do everything now to keep my journal up to date as without parcitipating in this forum i felt kind of alone in my journey :-bd


Below is today's session :
I swtiched my risk according to candle size. not fixed lot as i think to trade seeds its better this way but im not to sure :) if im correct

Trade1 = took a seed after price broke out from the box. Ds=1
Trade2 = seed entry Ds=1
Trade3 = Aims breakout (i got slipped there) exited as was happy with profit. Ds=1

DS=3/3 ( if entries are wrong please tell me)
Thoughts: This is first day with this approach but I've noticed i feel more relaxed as im trying to enter withing trend not against it. So im really happy but one day doesnt say anything need more time.

Thank you Grant for you seed flow chart ! great help (hug)
