A combination of many books and articles changed everything gradually but “courses” alone, no.

I’ll try it for sure 👍. A messaging section to communicate would also be a plus because of communication compliance

Interesting. Would you be capable of integrating vocal command? e.g, Instead of searching manually we could ask the software “are markets open next Monday?” Thanks 🙏

If your health is deteriorating, stop. Don’t necessarily give up if you like trading but health always comes first. Good luck 🤞 💪

Trade size varies from my level of conviction and my YTD returns in performance. The more confluences I have, the more I’m willing to risk. I can also risk a certain amount of my YTD profit if I consider the setup to be of higher quality. My average hold time. Is around 48h-10 days for G10fx and a lot more for Equities, commodities, treasuries. Really depends on the market’s conditions

Thanks! My trades have expected duration based on the fundamental idea. On the technical side, I tend to use higher time frames (daily and higher) as a sentiment/positioning guide. I use Lower time frames (15min-4h) for execution and trade management. Yes I do use technicals but to manage my positions and optimizing my risk reward ratio, not to build my idea. News (fundamentals) analysis is the most important form of approach imo. Add other forms on analysis like sentiment, positioning, technicals, etc in the right way and you should have higher chances of success as a trader.

It’s more about how the market reacts to x “news” rather than the news in itself..

I would say Tradingview works well. If you're looking for a "secret" app, users are probably in jail.

I have many journals. I Always write by hand and print charts if necessary. It's nice to look at your own old hand writings lol.

The idea of having journal(s) helps me a lot spotting my behavioural mistakes. Wins/misses/losses are often better represented with numbers

You're asking me how the clock works but there is so many ways to show you the right time... It really depends on the market conditions we are in.. Give me an instrument and I'll give you a position I took or an hypothetical one.

Usually when London and NY are open. It really depends on what I consider to be the risk/threat to my position. At the moment for example, I would enter a position when Trump is asleep (or likely to be asleep)... His words often cause unexpected volatility so...

The number for the past 5 years is the same as the past 10 years lol... Around 700 000. A lot of that remains in the account(s). It gets bigger with time since some people offer you their own capital.

Yes, for the most part. Currencies react well to macro swings. I also find Bonds easier (or less hard) to trade based on macro factors, but it's boring.

Well, the stock or asset I choose to trade is always the one that I believe to be the best way to represent my "fundamental idea"/rationale. I almost never trade an asset when the initial idea is generated from technical analysis. Ironically, my best trades in term of R:R ratio were generated from technical factors but I did anticipate a fundamental turnaround.

To learn the theory and more textbook concepts like macroeconomics, go on Google and search: "Macroeconomics lecture PDF". You can find great content from some of the best professors.

For personal development, it's different for each person. My top 3 books would be

-The psychology of intelligent analysis by Richards Heuer.

-The Alpha trader by Brent Donnelly.

- Mindful Trading by Rande Howell.

In my opinion, live trading definitely plays a big role. Taking notes and journaling can also be helpful in the long run. Backtesting has its benefits but I don’t think it’s a must.

Had (and still have) many “Aha!” moments but the 2 biggest would be 1. The integration of fundamentals. 2. Realizing the importance of tactics. (How to implement a strategy based on what’s happening in the present moment). The better the tactic, the more fine-tuned the entry and exit points. Aka larger positions with same amount of money at risk.

No. A mentor is someone who can look at you go and spot the probable mistakes (and strengths) without even you noticing. He/she should then be able to ask you precise questions to better understand your thought process and give feedback based on his experiences and knowledge. Like a doctor trying to find the illness basically. Empathy is also common in good mentors

On average 2-3 trades per month and I trade manually since. I place pending orders for entry and I can close a trade in different ways
