I executed only 4 trades last month.
and made $11,000+
the other 27 days I did nothing
Analysing charts & observing things but I was patient.
Wasn't desperate to jump on any trades.
TRADING LESS = ACHIEVING MORE.
The moment you start taking quality trades
and stop taking bullshit spontaneous setups that you weren't even thinking about 10mins ago
you'll start printing crazily.
THIS is the HARDEST PART.
Being patient.
Because doing nothing,
seeing opportunities pass by,
seeing other mfs on X flexing $67K profits,
seeing possible setups after setups on the charts,
and still not doing anything, HAUNTS MOST OF THE BEGINNERS.
But the moment you learn this skill.
Your learning Journey will be finished.
And you reach the top of the mountain.
tbh this is the ONLY thing that actually works.
I don't fucking understand how these mfs wake up in asia session trynna find trades.
lurking in the london session looking for setups.
If anyone has a VALID and PROPER trading strategy
there's no way you have to find setups FOR THE WHOLE DAY or whenever you want randomly.
you can't
You should just stick to the time/session when the strategy FAVOURS you the most historically.
if anyone's trading randomly at
any given time of the day
that mf gambling
@andrew_nfx And when that happens you'll be proud of yourself
that you didn't give up even after all the losses.
each red month, each losing trade and empty bank
shit couldn't stop you.
So anyone who's in that phase rn.
U GOTTA KEEP GOING FORWARD BRO π«΅
My DMC Strategy suggested to skip the day, Because there are no setups.
Instead of panicking or forcing myself to open trades & lose money like a beginner..
I closed my laptop threw it away, Ordered lil cake & now gonna chill while listening to βOnly 15β by Tankz.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
NQ crashed and
some nigga out there tweeted
"hope you took the generational short"
LIKE BRO HOW TF AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THIS SHIT?
Most beginner traders do not understand this core principle that makes the trader profitable.
You do not need to:
- catch every move of the market
- predict where the next 4000 ticks move will be
- know the exact level from where NQ will pump tomorrow at 10:32 AM cuz of trump's tweet
but most of the traders CHASE THIS.
they want to catch whatever moves the market is making.
"oh it went up 3000 ticks today, could've made $6k"
"oh I missed this bigg moveee, could've made $7k"
"oh no trump tweeted and market crashed in 1sec, I should've shorted it and have made $20k"
this is complete bullshit.
this is what the worm trader does on the daily basis.
and lose every eval they buy.
Every trader has to go through this phase once,
so it's natural.
But the sooner you stop doing this bullshit.
the sooner you'll start making racks.
NOBODY is talking about this.
This is exactly what im saying.
Most of these mfs don't understand this that they do NOT need to trade everyday
let alone taking 50 trades a day π
I took 4 trades in MAY.
Only FOUR TRADES in the whole month.
But yeah I also understood this the hard way tho.
I was also force-trading in the beginning.
If it was me 4 years ago, I would've blown up my eval today or sum
I see bro.
Well, It's the part of the journey.
this is how it's supposed to be.
You'll buy new account and will lose that one as well.
But at one point after learning things and Getting enough experience..
after a few years you'll thank yourself for not giving up.
so u gotta just keep going G π
NQ did go down to the levels I was watching today.
But not all of my conditions were met today.
So I didn't trade. Not a single trade opened.
Most people see the market following their plan by 1%
and they jump straight in the trade.
I do not get into the trade untill the market follows
100% of my plan and conditions.
My trade setups for $NQ today.
SETUP #1: bearish
1. If we're going around 29,800
2. forming an upward sloping SMT divergence in NQ
3. and there's some weakness in the price-action
-> then I'll be taking a short position around 29,800
SETUP #2: bullish
1. If we're going down to 29,400
2. forming an upward sloping SMT divergence in NQ
3. and there's some strength in the price-action
-> then I'll be taking a long position around 29,400 - If there's other enough confluences.
The first setup is likely to happen if its a good day.
The second setup is hard to execute and low probability anyway.
I'll keep you guys updated in my free TG.
@blockbhead I've been there bro!
We are all meant to learn things hard way only.
We all have to go through this.
But the sooner we understand things, take feedback from the market and apply it.
Faster the growth will be.
Can't skip it but can fast-forward the journey by working hard.
June 9th - 2nd week of the month
I've taken 0 trades.
And I'm the most unbothered person on this app rn.
Last month I took 4 trades in 31 days.
Made $11,417.
The other 27 days I didn't open any trades.
Most of you are taking 4 trades before lunch everyday.
Wondering why you're not profitable. That's why.
NQ doesn't reward effort.
It rewards patience G.
The market will give you 4-5 days a month where everything aligns.
Where it's literally handing you the money.
Those are the only days that matter.
Rest of the month?
idk wtf is going on and that's okay.
Not my job to figure it out.
No trades last week.
Probably none today either? we'll see.
Tell me again why you need to trade everyday.
Few
to all the beginner $NQ traders who are
seeing lot of traders posting $100k days on X.
while you probably lost few hundred dollars today
or blew that eval.
Guys.
just keep this in mind that, You do not need to trade everyday and make $100k a day.
even the people who really made $100k today, They do not trade everyday.
Real traders do not get valid setups every single day.
If you're not gambling and actually trading according to a strategy - Then you'll only get valid setups few times a month.
and this is a trait in every winner who takes money out of Nasdaq on a consistent basis
is that they minimise their losses by NOT TRADING on the days when its hard.
all the times you lost, You could've avoided that by not trading on that day.
and all the times you won, You could've saved all that money if you didn't lose it afterwards.
Your job as a trader is not to predict market's direction everyday.
your job is to identify when the market is playing out according to your edge/strategy, when is it easier to trade and when everything aligns together for your WIN.
once you stop trading everyday
and start trading on the days when its too easy and when you're destined to win
everything will CHANGE.
few gets it.

Thank me later.
Most traders get emotional while trading.
Not because they're weak.
Because they're thinking on the spot.
No plan, No levels or No pre-mapped setups.
Just reacting to every candle like it owes them money.
The fix is simple.
All the veterans follow this:
1. Plan the trade before the market opens.
Not when NQ is moving. Not when you're already in.
Before. When your mind is cold and clear.
2. The moment you feel multiple emotions -> stop.
Close the charts. Walk away.
That mental state will cost you more than any bad trade.
Emotions aren't the problem.
Your unpreparedness is.
Will you be able to remember this?
If you make money easily.
you'll lose it easily too.
But If you go through some hard shit.
you'll BECOME someone who's harder to lose.
that's why you gotta trust the process and
keep grinding everyday.
the longer it is taking,
the bigger the reward is getting.
etc.
Namaste.
Nah God will never do this bullshit.
He doesn't want us to be WEAK lil BITCHES.
Gotta understand the market,
Lose 1000 trades,
Lose so much money,
Go broke 4 times,
Coming back,
This is the journey he wants us to go through.
I pray god for more HARDSHIP everyday.
Instead of easy wins.
Because in the long run, These hardships will make you someone
who won't be able to lose easily when shit gets hard.
Saying a prayer for everyoneβ€οΈ
Dear God,
Please let us and all who are reading this somehow leave a limit order somewhere or somehow then we wake up the next morning and we are all up $100,000
Amen
