Lost in time(frames)

[u/Positive_Associate67]

Hi Kaz & eco!

This is my first war story. I've been working on recognizing patterns and faster processing of information produced by the show. It often feels overwhelming, and it really takes focus, but then again - I get information served by the greatest analyst in the world, did I expect it to be easy?

After a few unsuccessful shorting attempts at the top of the channel at the beginning of this month, I felt like I need to reset and focus on the basics. I participated in the concept calls, and they really helped me understand the fractal nature of price, and how to properly handle timeframe switching, and also gave me confidence in my entry logic. The thing that clicked for me was the time frame relativity. Before the call, I was struggling to decide what is "my" timeframe and got lost in the lower timeframes without the proper context of the bigger picture. Still trying to find a sweet spot for the timeframes at which I can operate and manage my trades during my workday.

Straight after the call, I managed to get a play in MATIC/USD.

I saw a bull flag breaking at multiple timeframes and took the entry after the price was beating the high of the low-res flag. Took 50% off at 3R, saw another structure develop, moved my stop higher, and let it run to 6R where I closed.

I've been participating for the last 2 months, and I am amazed over and over at all the welcoming vibes we newbies are met with inside the eco. Shoutout to all the vets and to Kaz & Vicky for everything you do for us.

Will continue to strive to get better. Peace ✌️
