@SON_of_Nigeria Same story here. Before I tracked my trades with a record-keeping tool, losses kept repeating.
Once I wrote down what I did wrong ye right, patterns showed up.
Big thanks to the supertrader journal app that made that mirror possible. Study yourself first. Market comes 2nd
@AdamWTrades@TradeZella@bigchartrades I started journaling late too and it showed me all my ego trades. If you want, try SuperTrader journal app with TradeZella it helped understand the why behind each trade. Keep going bro, data will make you better.
@AdamWTrades Two years and you are still surprised the market eats the weak
You are not losing to the chart you are losing to yourself
Stop posting feelings and start fixing execution
Journal every trade track every mistake or quit and save your account
@lynxtradesapp Same here I thought journaling was useless until I tracked one month
Numbers dont lie mine showed I was revenge trading every Tuesday
Journal did not fix me it just showed what to fix
@IbramOchieng@Etw_trades Glad that journal is working for you support and resistance plus ICT concepts is a solid mix . How do you track win rate and drawdown for each setup
I use Supertrader journal app it splits stats by strategy so I know what to keep
Tried anything like that yet
@leofx_trades 100% agree. Sheets look clean for 1 day, then no one opens them again.
I moved to Supertrader Journal because it’s broker-automated. Pulls trades from MT4/MT5 directly, so no manual entry. Plus it’s one-time price, no monthly sub.
@The_EdgeOS@jtrader Well said. Luck gives a win, skill gives a career.
And journaling is what bridges the two. Writing it down keeps you honest when emotions try to rewrite the story.
Respect the process. Document it too. Results follow.
@khalil_yks Emotion makes every bad entry look like opportunity.
If the setup is real, it’ll still be there after you breathe.
If it’s impulse, it’ll be gone in 10 seconds.
Discipline wins.
@oluoftrades Missing trades used to mess with my head. Now I see it as proof I followed my rules. Losses are just the cost of doing business. No edge works 100 percent of the time.
And you are right about opportunities. One good setup a week beats five forced trades a day.
@BLACKJ0130 Price is not set by one person. It is the sum of engineers, suppliers, traders, all acting on their own information.
That is also why insider trading is so hard to prove. The market absorbs information fast, legal or not.
Appreciate you sharing this.
@ambaposh I have seen my own stops get wicked out at obvious levels more than once. That is why I started giving trades more room.
If your method works for you then stick with it. The market will prove what is right over time.
@Sholly_Pee1 Trading did not choose you chose it after wins losses and lessons
Calling is discipline risk management and execution not destiny
God gave free will you decide to follow rules or blow accounts
@myfxroom Respect Darren, but disagree here. Mindset matters, but so does the edge. A 40% winrate strategy won’t become profitable just from ‘better execution’. Most traders blame psychology when the real issue is they never tested their edge properly. Fix both, not just one
