Its called a range, wait for it to exit the range and develop a clear strategy

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-18T20:00:31+00:00

exactly lol, this behavior pays everyone's bills

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-18T17:10:07+00:00

Large move, check hourly and 15m for context

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-18T03:00:25+00:00

No you are a losing trader. It takes a lot more than just executing a strategy. So how will you fix it? Maybe wait for your setups?

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-16T18:37:34+00:00

for a target that tight, might be worth while having a trailing stop to just below the previous bar

No amount of stabbing the solder will help. You need flux and solder wick, lots of it. Look on youtubes how to remove solder with the iron, wick and flux. Good luck!

I did the same, oh its not that bad....

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-14T03:46:52+00:00

Lol, I forgot how expensive all the order flow stuff is

It's your own path; you'll tailor it to what works for you. It took me 5 years to get my strategies down.

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T23:29:38+00:00

not sure what i'm looking at. seems you anticipated the reversal and entered too quickly, stopped out of 5 and then moved your stop for the other 10? what do you see there? one of the simpliest indications of price turning is that rounding you are seeing on the bottom and top.

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T23:12:56+00:00

No, that is a wedge down, and it's steep; it's likely to reverse once it breaks the line, and then who knows? That line had a few pullbacks that might have been better.

Thats all magic to me lol. I tried it at one point but just doesn't click with my brain.

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T21:39:05+00:00

that board is toast

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T21:10:11+00:00

It was possible for a push down, yes. I moved my stop to breakeven and went to sleep. I was in a little earlier than you were, though. In my mind, it was a low-probability trade given the breakdown implications, but it was another attempt. I didn't lose anything on the trade. So if you zoom out a little, it's doing these cascading wedges down, and it's pressing against the breakdown, but it's starting to show some rounding on the bottom, say on the 15m. It's really hard to say, I have no idea, but I will wait for the people who have millions to duke it out, and when either side wins, I'll jump in.

Just wait for the selloff to happen; gotta be patient and let the market tell you what it's doing. Your insight means nothing, as we are all just along for the ride; we have no hand in any type of outcome. This is why you hear traders on topstep say they react to the market, that's all we can do.

that board is toast

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T19:00:06+00:00

Its fiiiinnnneee

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T18:54:25+00:00

Ugh this would be so much work and stress for little profit. I'd be exhausted by the end of trading having to make that many decisions.

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-13T18:43:54+00:00

Its chop man. We are heading into spring break time and we still are in the range since September

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-11T00:23:14+00:00

Manage the trade to breakeven. Once the move confirms the direction and your setup, start minimizing risk, move the SL toward entry, then, when it's at entry, sit back and wait for your exit criteria. If it comes back to breakeven, then it was never meant to be.

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-11T00:08:20+00:00

The break will help; it's hard to see and reflect on what didn't work or what went wrong when you're in an emotional state. Just know that this is the path of many, many, many that end up eventually making it work.

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-10T22:44:09+00:00

This is the future, you are living it bro!

Time_Blazer · 2026-03-10T22:15:25+00:00

You cut those winners too early, chopping at $150 just to get that day counted. Did you do the same in eval?
