i need someone successful to analyze my entries and exits because for some stupid reason i cant figure out what im doing wrong or if there is something i dont know and keep missing because im falling for same trap over and over
i seem to have a sixth sense for entering the trades right before a dip regardless of what causes is the stock or the entire market move
 
Post a chart with the trades and I'm sure you will get lots of opinions. But of course, since we don't know what you're trying to accomplish, or why you wanted to enter, it will be incomplete to comment.

A perfect example is this. Some traders will always be looking to buy a breakout. I will always be looking to fade a breakout. We can both be right sometimes, and if we both have a good risk management strategy, both strategies might work in the long run.

So any advice you receive will be limited because the entry is just one part.
 
Walk us through a trade.

What did you expect to happen and why?

What was your plan? What to trade, when to trade (where to enter), how much to trade, when to exit?

How did it work out?

What would people do here? At this point in time on this chart?

#1. Bet Up
#2. Bet Down
#3. Neither set up is not good.

If #3 what is one waiting for as far as a signal or set up?

If one would do #1 or #2, what is strategy? Exit plans, hedge position etc it market moves against you?

Which instrument is that, and can you provide a larger time-frame to compare to that 6-hour chart?
 
On what else than direction? Every trade, regardless of strategy or asset class or metric is based on direction. When you trade spreads you trade a direction, vol is traded based on direction, interest rates are traded on direction, curve flatteners or steepeners as well...

the problem is that you're focusing on direction aka. being right instead of making good trades.

You're doing everything wrong.

For example, you are posting a journal, asking people to analyze your entries and exits, without posting anything like a chart, or instrument, or entries/exits.

So let's get over that hurdle first, yes?
