@StoicTA@StoicTA I realized I have been using SBS as my ultimate authority in how the market moves INSTEAD of using SBS as simply a tool to engage in how the market is ACTUALLY moving.
Crazy it's taken me a full year to realize this mistake I've made...
@StoicTA I have been backtesting SBS for 16 months and honestly have not been able to find an edge with it. I do not want to dissuade anyone from trying the strategy, but I wanted to be transparent that I have tested it in many forms, but was not able to find edge...
@StoicTA Officially been one year since the original SBS YouTube video was released. I'm still backtesting and working on refining my own system based on the video. It's been a long process full of curiosity in understanding how the market moves.
@100Tradingplace How long did it take you from beginning trading to having a definite and concrete system? I am a couple of years in with about 500 hours backtested and I'm honestly still figuring out the exact system I want to trade with...
Loss looking for a continuation higher. I totally missed the sweep of the 8 minute high triggering an orderflow change and a new set of bearish LTF swings lower. The morale of the story is that there is almost ALWAYS a reason for a loss. Are you willing to find it?
Can someone who loves their sins truly look to Jesus Christ for salvation? It's as if we need to be completely LOST before turning to Jesus. Matthew 1:21 - Thou. shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people FROM their sins.
@100Tradingplace@alextradesx I love what you said about CURIOUSITY. This is so key. The willingness to find the reason behind a losing trade is so key to building an edge.
@courzier@StoicTA If you go on Stoics YouTube channel he has a video called, "The only trading model you will ever need." (SBS) He explains it in this video.
@yomozingo I've always had this idea that I need to bring myself to repentance before God will reach down and save me.
I've read the bible cover to cover twice through this year, cried many tears, asked God every way I know how to save me. All efforts have been fruitless...
I'm wrestling with the idea that I can do nothing to save myself... (This is a quote from David Brainerd)
"There could be no way prescribed, whereby a natural man could, of his own strength, obtain that which is supernatural, and which the highest angel cannot give."
I had a dream last month where my brother was crying and crying, pointing to a chapter in the bible. Romans 6
God is telling me, "You need to DIE."
Romans 6:7 - For he that is dead is freed from sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
@JasontheLayman Bless you for sharing this Jason. I am glad you point everything back to Jesus and I hope one day the Lord will bring a true godly woman into your life.
I am not saved because of any mistake on Gods part. Jesus himself tells me why I am not saved. John 5:40 - You would NOT come to me that you might have life...
