Welcome to my profile. I will document my journey to 7 figures in funded capital here on this page. I will also share all my trades, mistakes and learnings. So you better follow

⚡️ Quick Update AUDUSD moving in my favor. Looking to move SL to BE around -1 deviation (might give it a bit more room). ⸻ CAD idea → passed. Technical was clean, but macro just didn’t align. No reason to force it. #swingtrading #forex ⸻ GBPUSD already moved. Entry now unlikely → letting it go. ⸻ For now: Holding AUDUSD No new positions Waiting for better setups. ⸻ Most people overtrade here. I don’t. Follow for real-time updates, not hindsight.

🌍📈 Weekly Market Outlook My current view: DXY could push higher this week. Not expecting a full trend reversal, but structure + current conditions suggest upside potential. That means: ❌ XXXUSD pairs → potential shorts ✔️ USD strength could dominate 👀 Pairs I’m watching: – GBPUSD – USDCAD → both look clean and could move well ⚠️ NZD shorts also on the radar, but fundamentals there are still a bit too unclear for me. 🔁 GBPAUD still on my screen → might look for another long if it sets up again 📉 AUD overall: staying bearish long term → shorts still in play 🧠 2 more pairs on watch → will post updates if something develops

@B_trader__ Yes, but you also have to do the right stuff. Another ICT Video or “new secret strategy” Video will not get you to you goals

@KobeissiLetter Berkshire sitting on that much cash isn’t random. It’s what happens when valuations stop making sense. Meanwhile retail is still buying every dip like it’s 2021. Not saying it crashes tomorrow, but this kind of setup usually doesn’t end quietly.

BREAKING: Berkshire Hathaway announces its cash balance is now up to a record $397 billion. The company sold a net -$8.1 billion worth of stocks last quarter, marking its 14th-consecutive net quarterly sale.

@Klingberg_ Have you Senn my last trade? CADCHF So fucking mad

@JulianFXG AUDUSD looks super good

New trade — first position in May. AUDUSD short. I’ve had this pair on my radar since mid-April, but now price and timing finally make sense. This is a higher timeframe trade, likely a longer swing. Risking 1% with a relatively wide stop. Technically, there isn’t a lot: pivot point + a decent resistance zone. The main idea is macro. Fundamentals are starting to shift, and sentiment + positioning are at pretty extreme levels. That’s where reversals can start to build. Not saying this is guaranteed to play out, but it’s the kind of setup that makes sense to take consistently. Let’s see how it develops. #Swingtrading #Forex

Weekly Trading Advice #3 Cut your trades in half. Double your standards. Most traders take 200+ trades a year just to feel productive. In reality, they’re just trading noise. More trades = lower quality lower winrate more mental damage If you go from 200 trades → 100 but only take your A+ setups… your results AND your confidence change completely. Trading isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing less, but better.

@BostonRobTrades Congrats man, keep going. Love the consistency and transparency. We definitely need more of this on here, way too much noise in the trading space. Keep sharing 👍

@JGMtrading 100% agree. This market is insanely overextended. A lot of people are about to get wrecked when the next “-10% dip” doesn’t just bounce straight back up.

Are we in a bubble? If the last time the SOX moved 30% in under 2 weeks into a new high was the exact peak of the dot-com bubble in March 2000 And that same move just happened again Are you still trading big sizes with no plan? I'm not saying sell everything and hide under your bed. The earnings are real. The AI revenue is real. This isn't 1999 where companies had zero cash flow and made up numbers But bro. Historically that signal has been negative 85% of the time 5 days later 85% You don't need to be a genius to understand that when risk is elevated, you adjust your position sizing accordingly That's not fear. That's just how you protect your capital

This is how bubbles start to look “normal”. S&P 500: ~13% in 30 days. ~100% in ~3 years. To put that into perspective: A good long-term return is ~7–10% per year. Doubling your money usually takes close to a decade. We just did that in ~3. And people still think this is sustainable. Meanwhile, the US economy isn’t growing anywhere near that pace. Earnings aren’t exploding. Productivity didn’t suddenly 10x. Price is just running way ahead of reality. But new traders don’t see that. All they’ve experienced is: dip → buy → instant recovery → new highs So they size up. Add leverage. And treat every pullback like a gift. That works… until it doesn’t. At some point in the next 12–18 months, this breaks. And when it does, it won’t be another quick -10% bounce. It’ll be the kind of move that punishes everyone who thought this market only goes one way. And right now? The risk/reward is completely skewed. You’re risking getting caught in the unwind of a stretched market for a few extra % of upside. That’s not investing. That’s bad positioning. If you think this is normal, you’re exactly the liquidity the market needs.

Weekly Update #3 This week was less about results and more about process. I spent most of my time continuing to build out my fundamental indicators. They’re starting to look very solid and I’m getting closer to having a really structured, objective framework. Also did a lot of backtesting to keep refining the system. In terms of trades, I only took one position: CADCHF short. The trade itself is a bit frustrating to review. It played out in my direction… and I still took a loss. Got taken out due to spread expansion on an illiquid pair. Looking back, I could have given the trade a bit more room. But within my system, the execution was exactly as it should have been. So I’m not treating this as a mistake, just part of the game. ⸻ Monthly Update (April) April is basically done, so here’s the bigger picture. All accounts are currently sitting around: Main accounts: ~ -1% Smaller account: ~ -1.9% A bit annoying, especially considering CADCHF could have easily put me at +2% buffer right away. But zooming out: The month is still up roughly +5%. And realistically, without the spread issue on CADCHF, it could have been closer to +7%, which would’ve been an exceptional month. What’s interesting is this: Last month, I followed my rules just as consistently… and ended deeply negative. This month, same process → strong positive result. That’s trading. Your job is not to chase outcomes. Your job is to execute consistently. If you start changing your system when things go bad, or get overconfident when things go well, you destroy the only thing that actually creates long-term edge. Stay consistent. Stack data. Let the results catch up over time.

This trade was a perfect winner on chart… and still ended in a loss. CADCHF played out exactly as expected. Perfect reaction from a high confluence zone. Macro + fundamentals were clearly bearish (COT, seasonality, sentiment all aligned) The move happened. And still… -1%. Price never hit my SL. Not even close. Got taken out because of spread expansion on an illiquid pair. On chart: +2% winner Reality: -1% loss That’s the difference between having a good idea and actually getting paid. If you trade crosses like this and ignore liquidity/spreads, you’re not unlucky. You’re incomplete. Curious if anyone here has dealt with this before or found ways to avoid it. #Swingtrading

Weekly Trading Advice #2 At some point, more information will hurt you. If you already have a tested system that works, constantly adding new concepts will destroy it. Most traders don’t fail because they lack knowledge. They fail because they never stick to one thing long enough. It’s like having a good soup… and ruining it by adding random ingredients from 10 different recipes. Your job at that stage isn’t to learn more. It’s to execute, repeat, and gain experience. No more constant YouTube consumption. No more jumping between strategies. Build trust in your own framework. Stand on your own analysis. That’s where real progress starts.

New week, new trades! - NEW OPPORTUNITIES. Sharing my trading setup for the week. Who's taking the trade? $EURGBP $XAGUSD $EURCHF . God speed

@DForexEngineer I am also bearish on AUDUSD. what's your reason for that

Who took this trade?

AUDUSD could be one of the best swing opportunities in the next few weeks. The pair has been trading at extremes for months. Now things are starting to shift: – technical structure is getting cleaner – fundamentals are slowly turning – strong seasonal tailwinds coming up – positioning is heavily one-sided This is how bigger moves usually start. Not saying it happens tomorrow. But if this flips, it won’t be a small move. Definitely one to keep on the watchlist.

If you’re taking 10+ losses in a row… it’s not “bad luck”. Your model is broken. I’ve been there. Watching endless ICT videos, switching concepts, thinking I finally “got it”… just to lose again. Repeat. For months. Here’s the truth most don’t want to hear: It’s not just that you’re switching strategies. It’s that your strategy doesn’t work in the first place. A liquidity sweep on the 5m chart is NOT a reason for price to move. Price doesn’t move because a random high got taken. It moves because of real underlying drivers. If your bias comes only from the chart, you’re guessing. The game changes when you flip it: Build your direction from fundamentals. Use technicals only for execution. Direction first. Entry second. That’s when trading stops feeling random.

3 clean setups. I’ll probably take only ONE. That’s the difference most traders don’t get. Technically, all 3 look strong. But fundamentals don’t back most of them especially GBP pairs like GBPNZD & GBPCHF. So I pass. The only one I’m seriously watching: CADCHF short, if we get a push higher tomorrow. No confluence = no trade. Also scaled up: new funded account with @FTMO_com .
