Sequence:
If you frame Liquidity before orderflow, you won’t know if you should buy lows or sell highs.
If you frame PDA before H/Ls, you won’t know which key level matters in the first place.
If you don’t sponsor your move with a key level,the setup is unlikely to play out.
Your backtest takes every signal without hesitation.
You don't. After 3 losses, you skip the next valid setup, and it wins without you.
Then you force a mediocre one to "catch up".
The gap between backtest and live isn't slippage.
It's the trades your emotions filtered.

go a long long way
Every money lost in the markets need to be seen as an investment for the final goal we have.
In my case 4 months were enough to make back everything.
That’s the thing. Stay in the game long enough and you will endlessly win.

When you learn how to operate within this framework, 1 winning trade idea can cover 10/15/20 losses in a row.
It begins to become genuinely difficult not to make money. But first you have to master LTF alignment, and not be an emotional and impulsive degenerate while doing so.
Sometimes your setup will form every single day of the week.
Sometimes it will only show up 3 days out of the week.
Sometimes out of the week, there will only be one clean day.
And sometimes… you won’t see a single trade setup for the entire week.
This is trading.
