    Able to trade small accounts successfully but fail when account size is large

    I've traded a few small accounts successfully in the past, then I scale up into 5 figure accounts, which always turns bad.

    Question about my 65% win rate and 1-1.5 RR ratio

    Question about my 65% win rate and 1-1.5 RR ratio

    Hi all, I’d like to improve my stats a little bit, preferably RR ratio. There are a few ways that I could do it. 1) better entries/tighter stops, this would be going down on a lower timeframe for entries (downside is getting stopped more often and missing profits) 2) increase take profit...

    (Forex) Trading only the currencies with major news that week?

    Seems like news moves price not only after the initial move? But it kind of gives direction for further moves for the next few days after news release? While other pairs with no news release tend to move sideways? So trade only the ones with major news releases that week? Like USD if there's...

    I do but not much, couple hundreds a month? I do shorter term trading, get about 5 setups per week. My goal is to build it to 7 figures but I'm not sure how the more senior traders feel when they trade, does money mean nothing to them? Because sometimes I think about opportunity costs, if I...

    I have read "Trading in the Zone" but still struggling with psychology

    I get nervous sometimes, I get the feeling of "hoping" even though I have backtested multiple instruments over 10 year period. I still get the feeling to want to revenge trade when I lose a trade. How do you guys solve this? I've been trading for about 5 years, although I feel I have gotten...
