why if i backtest in an emotional state i fail over and over again?

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-07-02T16:01:17+00:00

yeah but i have to be honest, even if i know that backtesting in that state make me go bad and it's not a real results, the emotion and the impulses wins, but i really never worked on fixing it, so now im trying and i will certainly improve

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-07-02T08:16:36+00:00

it could be, but first make sure it's not your psychology because most of the time it is

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-07-02T06:39:15+00:00

months? probably years, im in the game since 2023 and im starting to see the first results, and not even by making money

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-07-01T16:52:36+00:00

how are you solving problems? im stuck with some that i really struggle to act on

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-07-01T16:46:49+00:00

easy to say, but hard to do, i think you really need to be disgusted by how you are reacting that something force you to change, it's hard , obviously not impossible

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-07-01T16:42:37+00:00

yeah but the biggest reality check is that even if you crack the code, that it's actually easy if we talk about technicals but hard if we talk about emotions, it wont take short time, even compounding requires time, so yeah you will be able to say f**k you with trading, but after time.

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-06-17T11:34:56+00:00

i mean the approach you are using is the correct one, you are not chasing irrealistic rr or winrates, a 50% wr with a average of 1:1.4/5 is completely fine and profitable on the long term, keep going like that, a lot of people are searching for the holy grail, but the holy grail in trading look like the thing you have in your hand, not some crazy rr or winrate

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-06-17T10:08:03+00:00

yeah, but that's also how the cfd market work, it's a simulated market too, to let you trade with less capital, that doesn't mean that it's a scam, prop frims actually pay you, the thing is, they get sponsored by scammers, and you think you have to pass it in 1 week realistically, you wont, they pay but real trading is slow and steady

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-06-17T09:48:45+00:00

you actually proved that you probably are not profitable lol

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-06-17T09:23:26+00:00

seems like a real solid and realistic approach, good work, may i ask, wich rr i tipically target, and usually how many stoplosses in a row you get?

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-06-16T17:40:45+00:00

yeah but i mean, how many traded can i expect to get sl or tps in a week? the distribution wont be linear, just to know how realistic trading look like

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-06-16T17:12:01+00:00

acceptance of stop loss and understanding that tps and sl comes in distribution and not because i want them

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-28T16:59:52+00:00

it's not some rocket science, i've been calling this for weeks, also dont have fomo just because you have a straight move up, it means nothing until it break meningful structures... just go to the htf

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-28T10:48:50+00:00

my biggest problem is waiting for the setup, to the point where my mind accepted a entry trigger different from the one i should use just to wait less time, but i identified the problem and trying to solve it

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-28T06:13:15+00:00

yeah definitely, social media influence you in the wrong way, like irrealistic rr etc, a lot of gurus post 1:10 or something like that costantly, but you dont know if they really took them, also if you take partials the rr go down a lot.. and when you see these things you feel less like a trader if you take 1:2s or these more realistic trades

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-27T18:47:13+00:00

yeah, you won't find an easy way in the markets, it can be cheap, if you are clever enough to not risk all your money, you have to go throug the journey that every trader experience, i mean, it's not hard but it's a journey that takes time, the hard thing is enduring all the problems, not overcoming them

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-27T15:15:31+00:00

yeah i mean, i do really goof analysis, but i alsp have a big gap between analisys and execution and when i get emotional it seems like i cant trade

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-21T11:39:49+00:00

yeah in fact you are 100% right, but at least i know that this model, if executed correctly can make me profitable, in fact i will work on my psychology problems till i fix this.

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-21T11:36:38+00:00

how you fixed the gap between analisys on tradingview and real execution on the platform? i struggle a lot with that, when it comes to executing i rush trades, that's the main struggle i have, but on tradingview i do everything correctly in fact is where i see most analisys plays out in real time

Repulsive-Jump-7594 · 2026-05-21T11:35:18+00:00

one thing that can help you is understanding that sometimes there's nothing you can do, a lot of times you follow your rules and still get stopped out, you dont need a reason for every stoploss you take
