No hurry, no pause.

This will be my last post for a long time. I’m deleting X and stepping away from this platform for quite a while. I’ve realized that I’m wasting too much time here, and all the trading information, news, and chaos from around the world only create more chaos in my head.

I’m going all in on my path to becoming a consistently profitable trader.

Since nobody reads my posts anyway, I’m writing this more for myself than anyone else. So that in a few years, I can come back to this exact post and say:

“Mom, I made it.”

Thanks mate, but this step is necessary for me to focus on what truly matters.

With a family, two kids, my self-employment and my goal of taking my trading to the next level, this decision is non-negotiable.

I’m already looking forward to coming back and exchanging experiences with you.

Wishing you nothing but the best 🤝

i've gone through quite a few journals the past few years

[ what didn't work ]:

- taking over 2 to 3 trades per day
- back to back entries (re-entering after a loser)
- trading too many pairs (spreading themselves thin)
- random sizing
- only using market orders (they’d always be offside anyways)
- executing using timeframes below 5m
- not having daily structure (some morning routine)
- adding to a losing position (quite obvious)
- entering before knowing where they would exit

[ what was working ]:

- limiting trading to certain session hours (new york/close)
- planning specific levels (not zones) before each session
- sizing in accordance to regime (example: 5d vs 60d atr)
- increasing initial trade size once already in profit
- focusing on price action from their avg trade time
- trading majors (btc,eth) nothing smaller than solana
- aiming for a 45% + win rate (low-mid win % in general)

[ why they were messing up ]:

- trading pnl graph (thinking of past results)
- not accounting for probabilities resetting
- social media impact on their execution
- spreading thin across pairs to avoid boredom
- inability to not mess with an open position
- not stepping away from the desk frequent enough
- outcome focused mindset over input focused

[ actions they used to fix ]:

- collected data (having data = conviction)
- reviewing after every trade (creates time delay)
- turn off the pnl completely
- adopting a 3 question checklist before entering
- removing all trading apps from phone
- strictly limiting time on socials (lookup "brick - social")

none of this is to say there’s a right or wrong way to trade.

i'm 100% certain there are people trading 20 trades per day making money, and people trading 15 different pairs too.

i just wanted to share my personal observations from people I have worked with.

Sucks man.
But honestly, forced timeouts like this are kinda underrated. All the stuff you usually skip (lower body volume, real cardio, mobility, sleep, nutrition) finally gets some more attention.

heard somewhere about “cross education effect” that training your healthy side hard actually helps the injured one hold onto muscle, something to do with the nervous system linking both sides. might be worth looking into.

Heal up 🙏🏻

@tradermatt The hard part is now behind you 💪🏻

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@tradermatt Let’s go 💪🏻

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@tradermatt haha I’m so stoned it took me a sec to figure out the movie title. For a moment I just read “good luck” and was wondering why I shouldn’t die 😂

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@TraderMorin I also use AI in trading, but much simpler.
“Hey claude, long or short?”

Easy 50% win rate

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@tradermatt muscle memory 😂

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@tradermatt if anything, nothing significant. the fresh feeling after and looking noticeably leaner easily outweigh it​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​.

nothing you can’t put back on with one day in the gym tbh

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@TraderMorin can't wait, I'm down for it.

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@TraderMorin 🤣 have a blessed day

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@tradermatt no trade for me. at least for the next 30M 😅

[BONE$ 🏴‍☠️ @traderbonez]

@tradermatt yes, I know what you mean. on the smaller timeframe it bounced twice at the 2024-VAH. If we close above, it's worth a try for me.
