Sekiyo, Yes, there is a small problem with that but no time to fix it. I don't need to be perfect with the number crunching. I think you get the point of what I am doing. Save the perfection for trade execution and management. I fix that excel stuff later.

I agree and that is my approach as well. My goal is to find positive expectancy over past or future XXX to XXX,XXX amount of trades. And obtain quality trading education.

Thank you. Sort of real. I am in TopStepTrader trying to get funded.

You want 34% winning rate. But can you mentally deal with 64% of trades being losers if executed per plan.

The win percent is about Everything. Timining, avoiding mistakes and attention to detail. And trading with absolutely no fear and watching the charts. AND practice practice practice practice practice practice and take notes and take notes and take more notes. This is why I like day trading...

Thank you Sekiyo, Yes, I gotta keep on winning that is for sure. I like more frequent wins.

Hello Sekiyo, My stats are below, I am working on getting better profit targets. I like to risk alot for smaller reward. I like high probability trades, so big stop loss.

Good article and good sentence. I have only one question. Will the government take these sentenced people money (millions) and assets after all the harm and death they caused to people from their opioid drugs? They should take every dime they have and leave them and their family with $0.00 and...

Hooti, This is very true. After about 2 hours of starring at chart, decision making gets lower. The fixed was limiting trades to 1-2 per day, and 2 hours of starring.

Yes, correct. I am still on 1 contract and that's fine by me.

I am beginning to use range bars as well. I've been using the 3 minutes candle for a few years now.

Thank you sir. Yes, I had to limit myself and set some goals. What type of chart do you use? Time, range bars, tick, etc?

Hello sstheo, great work buddy and great work. 10-20 ticks per day is my goal as well.

Thank you Every day I open the 15 min chart and look for trend lines that contains price. This way, i am aware of what can stop price from moving toward my target or against my entry. I do not have a technique, I just look for obvious lines that containing price.

Hello PAAdict, The trendline below caused some buying.

Thanks speedo, Yes, that is something I am slowly learning about myself. BUT the catch is, i would never know what works for me if I do not take the time to try.

Thank you speedo for the response. I am leaving the "let the winner run" and "wait for the big winner" day trading mindset and I would like to take the small profits and frequently. However I still record the results of a trail stop winner daily for data collection. I want to get more...

Hello speedo, What do you mean by "I have set targets based on MFE within formations in my time frames"? When I back test and forward test, I track MFE to determine how much potential profit I could have made per trade before getting stopped. I also track how much potential profit could have...

Hello MattZ, Just wanted to say that this is good advice MattZ regarding choosing a simple price target and waiting. I tried the trail method waiting for the home run and for me, its a bit more challenging at my stage right now to be consistently profitable. In november I hit a $1000 trade, I...
