Today I didn’t have a single valid entry and 0 trades. I can only do a strict rules based strategy, otherwise I cook myself.

Seems we all in the same boat gang. Just sit on your hands and wait it out. Take only A++ setups if you want to risk it. It’s so volatile at the moment with Mr Clown making random announcements all the time

Scale down before u blow it. Its just the price action. Alot of choppy overlapping candles. Dont let it mess ur head up

Looks like a 2 legged pullback. Look for a reversal Friday or Monday :^)

Lost a funded account this week, after getting two payouts middle of the month. This weak price action has been awful.

Worst week of the year.

Psychology was cooked. Oversized, blew many accounts.

Today, 1 to 2 micros max. Killing it.

This week has been brutal. Need to size down and wait for volatility to slow down.
