how did your rules change as you progressed?

Measured move is most significant. Trades taken after measured move has -ve expectancy. Removed those trades and the system has +ve expectancy.

Developed different entry+exit rules after measured move and got +ve expectancy, the trade frequency increased and thus the profitability.

After that, most of work is on developing methodologies of direction analysis. Entry and exit is the easiest part.
 
When I first started trading, sticking to strict stop-loss limits and focusing on risk management were the rules that kept me in the game. As I gained experience, I learned to trust my instincts more and became more flexible with my strategies, adapting them to different market conditions. However, the discipline I built early on remained the foundation of my success.
 
Following up on my previous post about alcohol and trading, I’ve since cut back on drinking a lot. I now drink very rarely because it’s so important to keep a clear mind when trading. Staying sharp and focused is crucial in this business.
