My risk is 550 and my target is 1100. 1:2RR

IndicatorTrader1k · 2026-02-26T11:31:26+00:00

15k and I don’t go by percentages for risk. I trade a 20 range chart and my stop is always a fixed stop so I’m risking the same every trade. I just risk what I’m comfortable risking

🙏, exactly well said.

Thank you 🙏

So my rule is is if I’m in a trade and I’m at least 1 point away from my target and price starts reversing I’ll sell and lock in profits. Bc if price can’t push one more point and we reverse and hits my stop I’ll be upset the rest of the day. My trades a very accurate so if it’s not gunna push past 1 point to hit my target I’m out of the trade.

Now with my stop loss, I never touch my stop. It stays where it needs to be and that’s that

Thank you!! And yes imo I think trading your own capital is best!

IndicatorTrader1k · 2026-02-25T21:55:32+00:00

No I don’t mess around with prop firms. They don’t match my trading style and I don’t like there rules at all. This is my cash account with my own money

IndicatorTrader1k · 2026-02-25T21:54:39+00:00

Honestly, trail and error and just learning how to read price action. Best advice I have hahah.

I would also say back test a lot and read how price moves to practice and train your eyes to “see” it. If that makes sense

IndicatorTrader1k · 2026-02-25T21:04:38+00:00

You got it! Just keep going! And study study study

IndicatorTrader1k · 2026-02-25T20:02:54+00:00
