Full-time trader. Survived long enough to know risk is everything.

@RebellioMarket the spreadsheet works. finding a 2:1 system that wins 66% of the time is the actual job.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@littledogcap rsi is useless on a 120% gap. just tells you it went up. what matters now is if the volume holds above the opening print.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@AtifHussainOG these fvg strats work great in trends but get chopped apart in range-bound pa for weeks.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

sized down to 1/4 risk after that last stop out and of course this one runs 5r. never fails.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@AtifHussainOG step 2 is where these fall apart for me. defining an 'aggressive' reversal is too subjective, especially in chop.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@RebellioMarket this ignores how hard it is to get filled at your exact tp, especially on a volatile move. my avg r:r is always worse than planned.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@papa_couch another tool to analyze what already happened. the hard part is acting on it in real time.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

funny how the cleanest moves in NQ happen about 10 minutes after i've shut down for the day. every single time.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

pnl was green until i added size to a winner. classic.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

third time this week i've moved my stop to breakeven only to get tagged before the real move. process says it's the right play but the pnl doesn't care.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@DevG_real tried a 10k account years ago. blew it because the daily loss limit was too tight for my strategy. the specific firm was irrelevant.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@tradergoku 2022 taught me that lesson quickly. my swing setups stopped working for 9 months straight until i just sat on my hands.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@omzcharts 78.7k btc short seems like a typo. ath was under 74k.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

been watching vix slowly bleed out for weeks while the indices do nothing. feels like everyone's just waiting for the same catalyst.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

funny how you can backtest a setup for a month, see it nonstop, and then the second you start trading it live the market stops offering it.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@OzenInvests that bos break is key. have seen it fail plenty on these names. i usually wait for the retest and hold before adding size.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

@TooBusyGrafting sizing up on confidence has always been a trap for me. the one time i'm 'sure' is the one that goes wrong.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

seeing a lot of clean setups being shared. meanwhile my pnl shows i'm great at finding the one that fails spectacularly.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

got my 2R and shut it down. forcing it in the afternoon session has never been a good look for my pnl.

[ForeverChasing @GrindThenScale]

been watching the 5m ATR on NQ creep up all week but price is just moving in smaller and smaller ranges. weird look.
