Working out the issues on paper. All of the becauses create more issues! Lol. It's good though. Thanks for the buzz kill.

It all helps. Thanks. We need to remain in the "now moment opportunity flow". Why takes us out of there. Found myself looking for WHY's today. Then I remembered it's distracting me. Uncertainty. On chapter 6 right now learning about this.

thanks SD. I definitely want to stick around. Maybe even help one day. We'll see...

Update: My journey for now has consisted of working on my psychology/head issues, and choosing one set-up/signal to master, to own, and trade well. To be honest, I NEVER thought that trading was going to be filled with working on me as a person. Call me naive. So be it. I started out seeing...

If that's how dumbass rednecks trade, I want it. I don't know why I struggle with this. I learned to focus on trader behavior. I hear people mention trader behavior often. You often tell me to FORGET IT. Focus on the what, where, when, and how much, BUT not thy why. Can you tell me why no...

Hey guys, been really busy with work today and also son's football playoffs. More in depth reply tomorrow. ANd yes, Specifically for you Pick 1 setup – master it – own it – trade it Only way you can create your approach / methodology Only way you can then move on and begin to forging...

I'm trying hard to understand the genius here... At 11:30 price made a lower low, and it was immediately rejected. Is that the eye candy? After the rejection, traders found value at that low price. The two "potential" signals that I see at about 1150 are a PB to a TL SHORT, or, TL breach B/O...

LOL. I was turned down once and she still let me take her to Chili's. It was like my second real date ever. Oh Well...

I can completely understand moving the stop. Done it. BUT. It simply can't happen. When you're hoping your losing. Plain and Simple. That stop is this business. Taking the hit, is this business. Sure they'll get smaller, less frequent, but it is this business. I'm in a good head space...I...

I've been trying hard to work on my trading bro! Where u been? Some ideas... Defining a range/hinge you can do. You already do. Entry criteria is entirely up To you! Get creative. Make it yours. If price fakes a BO, you lose. A failed BOPB is an entirely different set up that you aren't...

I'm not experienced in the slightest, but I think you were on to something specifically testing a break out pull back set up. I've seen that so often. I think you could build a GREAT system on that one signal. Do you?

11Nov14 Review/Replay I didn't look at any chart and replayed bar by bar my plan. I wasn't able to SIM, but made trade plans anyways. Was quite the rangy day. Off the bat price dropped. Yellow circle annotates possible first trade that I did not take because of pre mkt supply line. Possible...

Great question. Easy answer...I'm still getting used to the 5 m. On the one minute, you can follow the demand line quicker. However, on the 5 minute with a strong bull bar like that, I could have held. Hard Answer...while I was trading the 1 m, I found that I could get some REALLY nice...

I've been considering how to respond. And I was at work... If I was some poor schlap trading for the fun of it, a hobby, not because I want a new career etc.., I would tell you how much progress I've made and you should be Oh So Happy... I'm not some poor schlap, I want to trade for a living...

SD. Amazing that you started your own thread! I'm excited to see where this takes you, and I'm following it. What's special about Renko? I'm not familiar with that chart analysis. I wish you continued success in your trades. -JS

My son is giving me trading advice. He's a running back here in PA and they just won 1st playoff on the way to state. At the end of the game, to clench the title, he had a 65 yard carry for a touchdown. It was called back for holding. I asked him what he thought about this. How did you...

Update. 11/7/14 Sorry for the brief absence. My emotional capital was well spent. I was beginning to get consumed by this here business. That's not healthy, and it's definitely not how I'm going to live life. That being said, took a break, reflected, thought about many things. I spent some...

If my journal helped you that is awesome! It's also great to hear about your gains man. I'm very happy for you. Be sure to watch for signs of euphoria. You did good. Your trades made money. That's good. Fine. It's what you trained for. Do it again. ;) -JS

You are completely right. I've noticed this behavior in the past but never gave much attention to it. I know notice it almost everyday and thankfully, I'm catching myself...or my mentor is. :) And he's reminding me constantly of who I am. Thanks for your words man -Jordan
