Quote from Avi 8:

Here is a reply to a PM about my trade today:

Yes it was quite a retrace from a PnL standpoint. Very easy to get caught up in the PnL and get distracted from what the market is telling you. Looking back now would there be anything different to do? NO! Not on coarse or 'forest' level. Now that 7.5 pts will be there for those more skilled. And it is an incentive to master beginner level and move to intermediate and expert level trading where those points ARE banked. I even managed to screw up the exit as I was guilty of dropping down a resolution level.

Look at the volume in the proper resolution, that 'wide range on 50% more' volume bar, was it decreasing or increasing AT MY resolution? Did it signal continuation or change? I was anticipating a pt 3 down to form, what did I 'need' to see? Did I get it?

The point is: don't watch the PnL, watch the market.

When I start my day, I always look at the 15-min chart from the previous 1-2 days to get my mind in gear. I can't tell you how much my trading has improved by annotating the 15-min chart as part of my routine. It makes holding through flaws much easier IMO.

I have followed you for the past 10 months and if you never make another post, I will consider my education a plus.
At the beginning of this month you said you would put it all togtheher and post some videos. Have I missed something. or am I early in my expotations.
I am anxious to experience your experience.
When do you plan to begin this part of the sylobus, or am I just clueless.

An unforeseen family situation has significantly curtailed my available 'online' time. As such, I have experienced a slight delay in completing this month's 'large post' in a timely fashion. I expect to have something available soon. However, should my real world (and real life) responsibilities overwhelm my ability to post here, know this:

Already have you that which you need.

May I add, what we need is posted in January. Everything after that is bonus.
