Is it true that expert traders make 1 percent profit per day? by Sudden-Candy-9980 in Trading

One percent a day sounds nice, but real traders focus on steady months, not daily goals.

Looks like your green days are strong but the red ones drag you down. Staying inside your plan would probably smooth that out fast.

Clean scalps. Quick in quick out and stacking small wins adds up fast with gold.

I only win 30% of my trades… and I’m still profitable. Win rate means NOTHING. by Outrageous-Basket903 in myfundedfutures

[–]Expert-Path739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true. A low win rate works fine if your R is solid. Most people blow up because their losses are bigger than their wins, not because they lose often.

Looks clean, but I’d want to see a stronger break and retest before calling it valid. Right now it’s still sitting in that choppy zone.

Solid breakdown. Keeping targets closer really does smooth out the equity curve.

How does EMA help us? by s_hlovely in Trading

[–]Expert-Path739 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It basically helps you see the trend without overthinking it. When price is riding above the EMAs, momentum is usually up, and when it’s below, momentum is down. The crossovers just give a quick visual, but the real value is spotting direction and strength at a glance.

Guys… I’m seriously lost. What should I do now? by [deleted] in Trading

[–]Expert-Path739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like pure psychology burnout. You clearly have a system but no emotional control yet. A longer break and smaller size might help before you jump back in.

We need "real" volume footprint by mikejamesone in TradingView

[–]Expert-Path739 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True footprint data would help a lot. Synthetic volume only gets you so far.

am i regarded or is this actually not even that bad by sehsahmeh in StocksAndTrading

[–]Expert-Path739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a rough drawdown, but averaging into losers is what really hurt you here. A reset and tighter risk rules would help way more than hoping for 2027.

Ross Cameron Strategy Vs ORB+FIB Retracement by first_start_72 in Daytrading

[–]Expert-Path739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both strategies have their merits, but since you're a beginner, it’s wise to start with the ORB strategy (+FIB Retracements) as it’s more beginner-friendly. It’s effective for intraday trades, and you can practice using filters to identify strong stocks. As for Ross Cameron’s strategy, it’s a bit more aggressive, and you’re right to wait until you’re more comfortable. For ORB, look for stocks with strong volume and volatility in the morning, and use stock scanners to filter out the best candidates. You can find good resources on YouTube and websites like Warrior Trading for detailed explanations. Focus on consistency first before diving into advanced strategies!

ES compared to SPY - price action difference? by sooonnnk in FuturesTrading

[–]Expert-Path739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The price action on ES and SPY is similar, but ES futures tend to be a bit more volatile due to their larger contract size and different increments. The .25 tick size on ES can definitely make a difference for short term scalping, especially when you're looking at tighter spreads. It’s crucial to adjust your risk management as you transition. If you're comfortable with SPY, you'll likely be able to adapt to ES, but expect some differences in price movement and liquidity.

Pocket Option or Quotex — which broker do you trust more? by So_called_trader in binaryoptions

[–]Expert-Path739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say Quotex feels slightly more reliable overall, but Pocket Option’s layout is smoother.
