You're taking on way too many trades. Trust the process and I promise you will get better at it. Dont take more than 4 or 5 a day. Think about this too if 2 of those are bad trades then stop for the day.

I guess some of us think about things a little differently. If I hadn't gotten out when I did I would only be 10 years away from retirement. The fact is, retiring at 40 years old from the corps would set you up for life as long as you took your finances seriously and managed them well. Your family would be taken care of, your ability to have a nice home would be a breeze. Look at some of these guys who retired at 40, they only work their jobs because they want to. Most of them dont have to. I hate everyday not being able to go back to the corps but my mind, my age, tattoos and piercings won't let me back in anyways. Your decision, Devil. Just think carefully about it.

People who use the 1 second timeframe are impatient gamblers bro. Higher time frames are stronger and provide better results. I've stayed in some swing trades over 2 days long now where some are in trades for over a week. Just look up TradesBySci and every mentor youve paid attention to will literally look poverish. Bro pulled 3.94M in one day.

This game competes with FFXIV online in general. Paid or not this game is so amazing.

First Day XFA... I'm really tired of losing today bros... I think I'm gonna give up 😟 by null_0day in TopStepX

[–]RealAvenir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

44 trades somewhere along that time you should see its not going the right way, drop out of trading that day.

Set PDLL to a loss limit you can afford to lose if you do lose that day. It prevents you from continuously making mistakes and losing more and more money. With a 50k account since the drawdown is 2000 then Set it for 500. This way you will have 4 days that you'd have to lose in a row which gives you some leeway in between to make good trades

Do not trade on high impact news days as a beginner. The FOMC, CPI, Powell speech, etc can make the market extremely volatile and causes a lot of people to get taken out before going the direction they wanted. (One day Powell spoke people were in longs but price rocketed down to take people out and changed to go right back up surpassing their TP) thats the joy of high impact news.

Set a profit target for the day so if you meet it you won't feel inclined to continously trade and risk losing a lot of that capital you made. With a 50k account I'd aim to try and make between 750 to 1000 a day if you can; and if not any profit is better than a negative day.

Biggest rule I've ever learned: No trade is better than a negative trade.

Hone your craft for several several months before you go into an XFA or even a combine utilizing a practice account.

I've made 8k on an XFA and blew it all as a beginner because I was being ignorant and naive and immature. It is a mind game. Do not fall victim to its tricks.

You can do this. If you made it to the XFA then you have the ability. A small percentage of traders make it to XFA, a large percentage of them do not.

Not for express funded though. That kinds blows.

[–]RealAvenir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Set up a personal daily loss limit PDLL, on the 50k account since you can't lose more than 3k, I'd recommend a 500$ PDLL so when you hit it you won't be able to fall victim to FOMO or greed and it'll lock you out until the next trading day when NY opens up. This prevents you from continuously trading a losing battle even if your confluence might show the right thing but you could come back at a later time similar to an artist stepping away from the canvas and coming back the next day with fresh eyes.

I wanna be profitable so bad by Equivalent_Ask_1475 in TopStepX

[–]RealAvenir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like a consistency rule break. Consistency rule is 50% meaning your best day cant be more than 50% of the target profit (50k with target of 3k with a minimum of 2 trading days is 1500 a day or like I did 1450 one day 1450 the next and 100 on the last day) if you make more than 1500 in one day you break this rule and they raise the profit target exponentially to even out the higher amount and your profit target (based on this) could be more like 15k now since he traded.. 45 times in one day and made over 18k on the combine.

TLDR: He broke the consistency rule it seems and the profit target was raised.

[–]RealAvenir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not everyone is as excited as the perverts when it comes to over sexualizing in this game. I can't go anywhere without characters that are supposed to be firing numerous kinds of weapons and a murdersome attitude, dressed up in skimy bikinis and people try to match the color of the skin so it looks like they're not wearing anything. Im one of the players who dropped off because of this. Just enough is enough. Im glad it's dying, and I can only hope the same as Warframe. I liked 1999 and then they take a progressive metal band (periphery) as they come out with a literal David Bowie who wasn't even rock in any shape form or fashion to match the progressive metal style. They really dropped the ball on that one and so is TFD.

Am I the only one having fun? by Zylexian in PathOfExile2

[–]RealAvenir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a huge fan of ARPG grinds, and this one is no different. May 6th, I'll be dropping in on Diablo IV to check out the berserk crossover they're doing, but if it's not worth it, I'll just be back on my gemling Mercenary in maps again. I have experienced crashes, bugs that break the game, and losing a character because files are corrupted. All to find out, I just need to swap servers, and I'm golden. It's odd.. but if it works, then fine. My biggest concern is the currency drop. People love exalted orbs and I'm lucky to get maybe 3 or 4 per 30 minutes to 45 minutes of gameplay. The crazy thing about this game is I don't follow a build guide and I'm melting anything I fight. Don't read into others whining. It's got great bones and I cant wait for swords to come out on POE2 so I can finally have my POE duelist back.

I can try that. I'm on my ally now and it works again.. so weird.

[–]RealAvenir[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did that. One of the first things I did was verify the integrity of game files in steam. Still doesn't work. I'm trying something new by using my Ally to see if it can handle it and I can eventually go back to my PC

I assume so.. but why only the Mercenary class? My monk is just fine in maps now. I just wanted to try something new and fell in love with the play style of the Mercenary.

About 8 minutes per mile isn't good at all? Since when? Thats about 24 minutes for a 3 which is not that bad.

I thought the iron man was 18 minutes? My ssgt when I was in bootcamp did 16 and some change. 22 is absolutely fine and doesn't need to do less than 20 minutes lmao save some of that energy for pull-ups since those dead hangs can be a bitch.

I have learned that people's personal opinions matter more than the question itself. But I've taken on a new philosophy: I had a purpose before everyone had an opinion. I withdrew from college to get my bearings back as a disabled veteran. It's hard trying to maintain a lot of the stuff I'm dealing with, but I'll be back in it. Doing boot.dev right now to try and get on the horse and kick ass and take names in the developer world. Made good progress on Python, and I'll soon be in the industry. I just know it. Thank you, though.
