📋 WEEKLY TRADING REVIEW : DO THIS EVERY WEEKEND
Be honest. Nobody grows by lying to themselves.
⚠️ 1. Your mistakes this week
What did you do wrong? Be brutal.
👁️ 2. Trades you missed
Which setups showed up but you didn’t take and why?
✅ 3. Trades you executed
Every trade. Winners and losers. Log them all.
🚪 4. Trades you closed too early
What happened after you exited?
😔 5. Break-even trades that ran without you
You moved to BE, got stopped out, then it went exactly where you thought.
🧠 6. Why weren’t you confident in your setup?
Your rules said yes. What held you back?
📊 7. TradingView vs MT5 : why the difference?
Profitable on the chart, different result in your account. What happened?
⏳ 8. What impatience cost you:
Where did rushing in or rushing out hurt you?
🎯 9. What you’re doing differently next week:
Actual rules. Concrete changes.
Losses are tuition. Reviews are how you actually learn from them. Don’t waste an expensive week, extract the lesson and move on💆♂️
Out of 100 Nigerian traders, only about 9 are consistently profitable.
It’s simple.
The other 91 are trading the wrong way.
Most of them don’t understand risk management, trade management, or how to treat trading like a real business.
Ironically, knowing how to trade is the easiest part of trading.
What actually separates profitable traders from the rest is how they manage risk, manage the trade, and manage themselves.
Master those three things and the game changes completely.
Tomorrow on my free Telegram channel, I’ll break this down step by step.

The older you get, the more you realize luck is just exposure.
If you sit in the same chair, same routine, talking to same people... nothing new happens.
You have to touch the world to win.
Talk to strangers
try a new coffee spot
post on social
Start a side hustle
The world rewards motion.
You don't find opportunity sitting still
Most traders blow accounts trying to predict the market.
Professionals position themselves for when the market reveals direction.
Prediction is ego.
Positioning is discipline.
Most traders stare at charts all day.
Professionals watch what moves capital.
• Interest rates
• War risk
• Oil supply or Gold demand
• Liquidity
Charts tell you where.
Fundamentals explain why.
To become a profitable trader, understand that having an trading edge must come before trading psychology or anything else.
A trading edge is a method or system that allows you to generate more profits than losses over time. It’s something you refine, test, and continuously improve as you gain more experience in the market.
An edge is essentially a lasting competitive advantage over the market. If you truly have one, you should be able to apply it consistently and achieve results with the same approach for years to come.
When a system is producing real results, your focus should simply be on studying it, refining it, and improving it daily, aiming to get just 1% better with it every day.
If you keep jumping from one trading system to another every year, it’s a clear sign that you haven’t found your edge yet. Once you do, your attention shifts from searching for strategies to mastering and refining the one that works.
This is exactly why trading often becomes boring for profitable traders, they are simply executing the same proven process repeatedly.
As the saying goes:
“I fear the man who has practiced one kick a thousand times.” 🥂

Bro to Bro:
Your environment can 100% ruin your potential. Leave that small town before it kills all your dreams.
Far too many people underestimate how much their location impacts their life.
Things I did differently this week that you should take note of:
✒︎I didn’t rush into any trades.
✒︎I traded the same system I created and have used for years ,no hopping into strange strategies.
✒︎I focused only on high-probability setups.
✒︎I didn’t trade for fun; I traded only when my system showed up on the charts.
✒︎I took my time validating every trade.
✒︎I didn’t succumb to other people’s opinions about my trades. I traded what I saw and what I know.
✒︎I followed my rules, and it paid me.
✒︎I respected my risk-to-reward rules. No overleveraging, no greed.
✒︎I didn’t care what another person was doing. I focused on my own growth.
Outside trading:
✒︎I worked out 4 times this week and saw massive results.
✒︎I prayed every day.
✒︎I maintained the routine that kept me productive all week.
Lastly, I made good money and took my cousins and friends out.
Life is good🍾
Don’t treat prop firm accounts like income
Treat them like assets
Aim to make 2-3% a month, then take your payout
Re-invest that money into more “assets” (prop firm accounts) and build up your capital over time
This is the best way to play prop firms
Not over-risking, making one payout and then blowing the account and having to start over again
My first profitable year in trading had nothing to do with strategy and I made over $100,000.
I simply stopped:
• Overtrading
• Chasing moves
• Forcing entries
Most traders don’t need more knowledge.
They need more discipline.
When you start winning in life, remember this, Everyone shouldn't be allowed in your house.
And even fewer should know where you live.
Privacy protects power, always remember that
Don’t let pressure make you blow your trading account on Monday morning!!!
Don’t let greed make you blow your trading account on Monday morning!!!
Don’t let impatience make you blow your trading account on Monday morning!!!
If you’re trading, but don’t know:
•Your exact entry trigger
•Your stop-loss placement
•Your position sizing formula
•Your max trades per day
•When to stop trading
•When to sit out
Then I bet you’re not profitable
And you won’t be profitable until you learn these things
New traders do this;
- pick one strategy and
- challenge yourself to take 100 trades on it
- on all trades go for 1:3RR minimum on all setup
- don’t touch trade until either TP or SL nothing like partial profits
I want to dare you to do this and come back to this tweet
I’ve never really said this out loud before.
But late 2024 humbled me in a way nobody saw.
On the outside, I was still “SABIIGAL.”
But on the inside? Not to talk about.
That season taught me something quietly painful:
You can be skilled and still lose if your mind isn’t settled. You can know your strategy and still sabotage yourself if your heart is heavy.
If you’re going through something right now, relationship tension, family stress, school pressure, financial urgency, don’t force yourself to trade just because you feel behind.
Nobody tells you that part.
They’ll tell you to master risk management.
They’ll tell you to journal.
They’ll tell you to backtest.
You don’t prove strength by trading through pain.
Fix up and come back.
The market will still be there next week.
Next month.
Next year.
But your peace? That one you must protect!
So this guy texted me yesterday. He said he’s been trading for over 5 years now. Got 18 courses from popular FXNG traders. In over 20 Telegram groups.
Still can't pay rent from trading.
I asked him to walk me through his normal trading day.
He said:
"I wake up, check charts immediately. If price is moving, I don't want to miss it… so I jump in."
"If it goes against me, I hold. Because it might come back."
Hope.
"If I close in loss, I feel frustrated. So I enter again to fix it."
Ego.
"If I win, I increase lot size. That's when I should capitalize, right?"
Greed.
I didn't even argue with him.
The issue wasn't strategy.
It was identity.
He's approaching the market like someone trying to escape being broke, not like someone building skill.
When you trade to survive, you force trades.
When you trade to prove something, you oversize.
When you trade from fear, you hesitate.
Rent money energy and professional trader energy are not the same.
Until you stop trading to "make money"...
you'll never make money consistently.
