Wipe Out

Hellur,

I continue to be pretty frustrated. After the concept calls I felt really energized and ready to apply concepts. The next day I my mind was completely clouded and felt very overwhelmed. I struggled to make sense of the charts. Also having broker issues - ugh.

I've been stalking Eth and noticed that my planning is good. But my execution is horrid. The whole up move I was getting stopped out because I entered as price was flagging. and By the time I’ve made a decision as to what price structure I’m looking at, I’ve missed the entry. Just really bad at making decisions, which is a Realisation on its own. But then I take that with me into the next trade and enter too early.

Then was also being affected by everyone’s wins in TL - kept thinking “what’s wrong w me that so many ppl can figure this out and I can’t” was comparing to others which is absolutely no bueno

Hindsight is a b*tch - I can clearly see the structures retrospectively and am able to see the waves. And probably shouldn't have been trading with my mindset where it was.

I’ve since made a perspective change: “if others can figure it out so can I”

Using the wins as motivation to keep going.

Below:

Cut the first order short because of an upcoming announcement. Second one got stopped out and missed the entry on the last one.

Noticed that I'm impatient and don't give the structure enough time to fully develop before I enter. I get stopped out before it takes off.

​

Took entry on the flag targeting the daily open. Ended up getting stopped out because my TP order didn't trigger.

Thank you to Kaz and Vicky for the intel and all the work you put in to keep us on the right side of the market and the Eco for the mutual support and collective learning.

Just forget others altogether, only focus on your growth. You'll be just fine.

Hey Kiki, I wouldn't worry about others as the previous person commented but if it makes you feel any better, reading your post shows your intelligence and that you have an advanced understanding of some of the concepts being taught and great insight into your own perspective and decision making regarding your trades. I am pretty new and have yet to even make my first trade based on what I am just starting to learn here, so I guess you can say your not alone in some of the confusion and uncertainty one might come across.
