Also full transparency this was my second trade of the year.
Lost my first trade last week on a EU swing -1R.
Was expecting continuation for the rest of the week after a strong reaction out of the daily and weekly fvg.
Unfortunate but bias was just wrong. Onto the next one!
+2.6R on GU shorts this week, securing my first 2 payouts this year.
Entered after nice manipulation on CPI expecting DXY LOTW in and also managed to scale in yesterday.
Good progress also made on my FTMO evals too.
Was quite a slow week but followed my plan and executed well!
Unfortunate about the GU position as I had taken off my BE around rollover to not get slipped but fell asleep waking up to SL. Is what it is, expensive lesson onto the next trade.
Just 2 trades this week, planned $GU sells as was expecting a DXY bounce paired with $EG strength. Bias was proven wrong and had a bit of mismanagement with my SL overnight (-1.5%).
Managed to stay cool and adapt, catching a $UC swing later in the week with a scale in for (+3%).
Bit of a slow week, just the one trade on $EU.
Was looking for continuation lower towards the SSL, but trailed out for -0.66%. Overall bias was just proven wrong.
Risk was well managed and capital preserved. Next week seems to be setting up nicely though!
2/2 for this week 🎯
+5.7% on $EU and $GU sells!
Easy alignment with HTF orderflow and bullish DXY.
Best week, since becoming full time over a year ago.
2 trade ideas, 1 scale in each time, keep your trading simple and the consistency will be reflected in your equity curve.
I forget how hard I worked to get here.
To anyone that cannot see a way to make this work - I hear you. This stuff is absolutely draining. But when it hits, literally nothing comes close. You can’t even compare this with anything else.
You truly decide your fate.
This is my second ever 10k in 24 hours from day trading
My biggest turning point to going from 1k days to 10k days was being able to embrace my losses.
If you lose MOVE ON
All you need to do is turn up everyday following and trusting your system
Whether you W L BE … Move on
+1.6R on EU shorts
Good displacement out of the dfvgs, after which Monday’s low was a clear DOL
After DXY took the high started aggressively trailing my SL, eventually getting taken out for 1.6R.
Nice way to end what’s been a tough month of PA, setting up nicely for Q4!
