@AC_Trades well said brother. it’s quite refreshing. i am quite slow in this area for some reason. i can’t wrap my head around median and mean 🤣. in fact statistics was one of the hardest class i’ve ever taken.

Every person / piece of content I would try to learn from when I started out would constantly be saying things like “this is high probability” or “this is an A+” etc
Being a lab tech in The Army my brain would always struggle to understand how someone claims to have probability yet no actual data.
Just pure recency bias / discretion.
My brain has never been wired / used in that way. It’s always been logical. If -> this.
If a patient has lab result X -> it’s most likely disease/issue Y.
In medical laboratory medicine there is very black & white results that provide the doctor with objective information to diagnose the patient.
So after struggling for a while I leaned on what was natural to me. How about I just quantify the actions on the chart of if -> thens
Come to find out many mainstream ways of trading are extremely extremely discretionary and doesn’t have logical if -> then but rather it would lean on the individual experience.
So if I want to learn I had to learn through objectivity not someone’s eye and how they see candles.
Then the rest was history

Memorial Day isn’t a holiday to me.
I’ve buried friends in war and I’ve buried others after the war when the fight followed them home. Good men & women. Men & Women I bled with, suffered with, and trusted with my life without hesitation. Some died overseas and some died battling demons long after the uniforms came off.
People see the life now. The trading. The business. The freedom. What they don’t see are the names, faces, and memories carried every single day.
Freedom was paid for by men & women who never made it home and by men who came home broken carrying battles most people will never understand.
Today I remember every one of them.
Until Valhalla 🇺🇸

What if I were to tell you this 47 point trade is what changed my life?
Now most people read that and wonder how could a small scalp change anyones life? Cause the PROCESS behind how I treated this singular trade will sometimes:
- yield 20 points, yield 40 points, yield 250 points
Its the process you should be obsessed over...not over perfecting a singular outcome of a singular trade.
There are different seasons a trader needs to be hyper aware of and THIS is the true enigma golden ticket ....
#1. You will have homerun picture-perfect days
#2. You will have sloppy, ugly yet green days
#3. You will have "meh" days where maybe you end green but can't see absolutely anything else
#4. You will have normal red days
#5. You will have red days where you use your entire budget (max DD for the day) where you feel like you can't even get 1 point of profit to save your life
Your goal as a trader (in my opinion) is not to make your trade plan never have #4 and #5 and only have #1.
Your goal as a profitable trader is TO FAIL to the LEVEL of your SYSTEMS...
Today my systems kept me flat for alot of the price movement...then I finally had ONE opportunity and even then I collected cashflow only. While other days a green day could mean I captured 200 points.
Accepting and knowing your performance WILL be a spectrum vs only green or red you will transform your mindset around how you treat trading.
but I get it....this isn't sexy to talk about so most won't even make it to the end of this tweet...and thats why most will fall victim to the brainwashing people on this app try to do to you where ONLY perfection is what you should strive for in your entries...exits...and strategy
Perfection is what is keeping you broke. Then when you surround yourself with others claiming to also be perfect and the best but they are low key having bad days just like you...it breeds mediocrity.

Here is the all new, all electric Ferarri Luce.
And it is a fucking abomination. I don't post about cars. But I love Ferarri.
Ive never seen such an ugly EV, and the basic model with no extras starts at $650,000.
It is way more shit than:
1. Arguing with ChatGPT
2. Treading in dog shit
3. Bixby
4. Sam Altman
5. HMRC
6. Accidentally getting pegged
7. When a trade edges your Take Profit before stopping you out

@ZenomTrader Fair point. But even systematic traders lose when they keep changing systems before the data matures.

Umar Ashraf noticed a pattern in unprofitable traders.
Every time they had a bad week they went shopping. Not for clothes. For information. New indicators. New strategies. New YouTube videos at midnight trying to figure out what they missed.
He did the same thing early in his career.
Loss after loss — he kept adding more to his system. More confluences. More filters. More rules. Convinced himself that somewhere out there was a piece of knowledge that would finally make everything click.
But one day he stopped and asked himself honestly:
*What am I actually missing?*
And the answer was nothing.
The losses weren't happening because he lacked knowledge. They were happening because some days the market simply cannot be read. No strategy catches it. No indicator predicts it. Even the best traders in the world sit there and think *I have no idea what this is doing.*
Umar still has those days.
But now when it happens he doesn't open more charts. He doesn't start researching. He just accepts it and walks away.
Because chasing answers on a random day doesn't make you smarter. It just makes you more confused.
Unprofitable traders think more information will fix their results.
Profitable traders know that sometimes there is nothing to fix.
