I always lose, what should I do?

Based on the whole candle structure of my trading chart!

Oh my. lol.

Care to explain how you tell if buyers are leaving the market or sellers are entering. Both have the same effect on price action.

@IulianForex

So Julian Martin K here mate
it’s been like a week, How’s Trading going, how do you feel , how are you overall emotions, how is the strategy going. are you doing well… LET ME KNOW OK…
be cool

Whoa you have to calm down and analyze your strategy…record your trades, identify what you are doing right and what you are doing wrong. Do more of the right stuff. Create a plan and write it out be thorough!! Keep a journal! Practice and stay diligent!!!

I don’t think, robot is a good option! Manual process is much better than any automatic trading system.

Bob; I am not trading with 100% accuracy but I am happy with my PA trading skill. Yes, PA is my major, it helps me to identify the dominant side of the current market!

First create demo trading account with the most reliable traders, then discuss your strategy with the mentor of Babypips and practice your strategy with demos. By this process you will be able to identify the bottle necks of your trading styles and strategies and also the effectiveness of your trading facilities that will be provided by your broker. Once you will get the confidence that your strategy is going well then start with mini accounts.

@_bob, numero uno is momentum this implies something more than PA as a stand alone.

  1. Getting a thorough grasp on momentum will cover a lot of sins and put the market in your hands to trade with.
  2. As a more direct answers to your question, I don’t think many here will argue with money rules. In forex the big currency banks rule, hands down not is ands or butts. Thus what you’re really asking for is supply zones that bring in the buyers and demand zones that bring in the sellers, S&D zones are not the same as S&R zones.

There is a good teaching firm that has a good channel that introduces this, is free the firm is not… I do the free youtube channel… I would mention the name but I would get slammed for advertising again…

Sorry but I do not know where the line is drawn in the sand. Maybe a moderator can send me a message about this?

Hope that help.

@midwest

Thank you for taking the time to reply to me. However I was being sarcastic in my responses to NaguibSawiris. His/her responses are gravely naive and misinformed.

You need to revise this. By the time momentum builds then its all over. Basically you’ll miss the bus. Don’t worry but, another bus will come along. But will you catch that one or wait for the next?

Again, you and I will never know. Do you really think big business wants its competitors to trace their money movements through open order books held at their bank. Hell no. Why price moves from zone to zone we’ll never know. Its a fact you will need to accept. My advice to you, everything you’ve learnt from your gurus and YouTube sites is pure genuine bull shite. Forget it all . As an overactive day trader - study time of day. One or two trades taken at the right time of day makes redundant all technical and fundamental analysis

@_bob, well I suppose that’s why I’m a veteran so we can all believe and say pretty much we want to. You are 100% wrong and I know several hundred traders that can prove it as well as a fund that trades several billion per month teaching momentum and the Benjamin Formular a cash management system second to none.

You may be a great tradin I would have no clue but you attitude needs an adjustment from a yank, mate.

Peace & Tranquility.

@_bob, BTW I earned 80.06 pips last night with an $800 account with no great risk. Just trading a 1H 1 ATR off a 5M chart. No Scalping just let it run until TP.

How did you do and with what size account, matey.

rookie to veteran in 13 days. Thats a record.

Calm down son. Last night was Sunday. OMFG.

Guess your 6 digit broker trades weekends aye bro.

Sometimes you have to think inside the box in order to think ouside the box.

are you getting the picture mate?

Oh I so love the sensitive types

BOXES bro, think beautiful BOXES

I am trading a 0.01 lot size as I as I don’t have a lot of wiggle room. But then again that’s cash management for you along with momentum trading… LOL

@_bob, sorry Bob I wasn’t trying to offend you or anyone here.
here is last night history file, hope it pasts ok I had the delete many of the columns but the just is still there. I know its not much for a night’s work but it is more than 10% of my account size. Our funds aim is to produce consistently profitable traders. I’m not quite there yet as I am still a rookie but I’m catching on.
Thanks for the word play…

Good day, guys.

Before this discussion gets any more heated, I would suggest that we all take a step back and calmly collect our thoughts. There’s nothing wrong with having opposing views, but I’m sure that we could settle this in a more civil manner.

Thanks!
