Financial Times reports that Donald Trump has privately urged Ukraine to intensify deep strikes on Russian territory, even asking President Zelenskyy whether Kyiv could target Moscow if the US supplied long-range weapons.

It's about goddamn time.

It’s all fun and games until one of these candles goes the opposite direction and wipes out all the accounts.

What happened to his prop firm? Why is there no info about it anywhere?

The easiest way to lose money

Is to trade when there’s nothing to trade. If the setup isn’t there, neither should you be

Same thing happened before the shutdown.

He pays a few of the loudest ones (so they thank him in the chat and stop the negative comments), and the others are left with nothing.

And people still fall for it.

@martoptrades @fx_replay Yes, if you have fixed R:R strategy like 1:1, you can calculate total returns for 1:2, 1:3, etc.

[Underrated @Underrated_CS]

I'm not joking, @fx_replay idealTP column gave me an extra +30R on my 2024 backtest. It's insane.

If you trade a fixed-R strategy, you can calculate the strategy's returns at different R:R ratios without needing to actually enter those trades.

@TradeWin_ Hey Thomas, let’s chat :)

@boldikohnken The headline is extremely unclear and confusing, nothing is good about this email

We're creating a product for traders, and I've downloaded TikTok for the first time in a few years to get content ideas.

The amount of brain rot in the trading section is unbearable.

It really makes me appreciate how cleaned out X is in terms of content quality.

I scrolled for about 20 minutes, and it's just pure cancer.

If the percentage of traders who lost everything was 90%, it's probably up to 99.5% now.

Here's one example that has 70K likes:

backtesting data gives you so much mental edge that you probably don’t even realize.

having 200-500 trades in your excel sheet and seeing how even 9 losses in a row can happen - and you still end up very profitable by the end of the year - helps you handle those 9 losses much better than if you didn’t have that data.

people who say backtesting isn’t important because the market doesn’t run on past data either:

1. don’t have an edge themselves
2. are selling you a dream (in a discord or pdf format)
3. both

London NFP trading experience:

• 2 Mbps wifi in the hotel
• Need to buy an eSIM for better internet
• eSIM has little to no signal in the room
• Took the phone to the balcony -> full signal
• Made it just in time to place orders in the last seconds

Back in action next week 🤠

You can expand on the data that you write down.

- Entry hour. You can then group trades by hour/session and see if you have any good/bad performing sessions that you can avoid or focus on.

- Volume, ATR, or other volume indicators. You can then sort the data and view what win rate you get based on different volumes. For example, one of the findings could be that your strategy only performs well when the volume/ATR is above X.

- Other additional confluences. Maybe you have some indicators for certain conditions that you can include in the journaling. Track if the additional confluence was aligned with your trade and how it’s performing.

- Opportunities are endless

Got my ass absolutely clapped yesterday with -$43,534 on $NQ.

The good thing - no extreme negative emotions felt.

A year ago, this would have sent me into one of the biggest downward spirals.

Seeing the good in the bad and moving on 🫡

@TraderBach Low self-esteem / insecurities are screaming hard in their language recently

[Underrated @Underrated_CS]

Seeing these ‘traders’ lose their minds here like 16-year-olds makes me question their entire trading career.

How could you have survived the mental toll that the market takes on you and then come here and lose your mind?
