The growth I’ve experienced over the past 2 months has honestly been unreal. Took some time yesterday to reflect and go through my journal again…
Wow.
The progress, the discipline, the execution. Grateful to God for all of it. Curious to see where this journey leads next.
Curious how others handle this.
If price delivers exactly as expected… but your ideal entry never gets tagged.
Do you adapt the risk and take the trade anyway, or let it go completely?
Today was an easy day in terms of bias… but a difficult one in terms of risk management
Liquidity targets were clear
Bias was bullish and Nasdaq futures ($MNQ) looked ready for a new ATH
1/ Today was one of those MNQ sessions that really tested patience.
Started the day bullish after sell-side liquidity got taken.
But NY open completely changed the narrative 🧵
Trading isn't the hard part.. it's the waiting.
Everyone can click a button, few have the patience to watch winning trades fully pan out..
Instead they have way too much patience with their losers.
What I take from this:
Trading $MYM isn’t about getting everything right.
It’s about:
• managing risk early
• staying patient on retraces
• re-engaging when structure allows it
Nothing fancy. Just repeatable behavior.
