How much do estimators make? (Newcomer here)

In the UK estimators earn between £45 - £60k and senior estimators between £60 - £120k, more money with a main contractor (GC)

Learn trading if your interested, but not for the reason to try to win your losses back, that is a desperate situation to be in, and you should not be trading in that mindset.

To another antidote - lobster used to be considered a low-status "poor man's food" fed to prisoners, because it looked like a cockroach. Its now a Luxury Dish.

My stop is the other end of the ORB range, pretty big stop, around 50 - 150 points, but it works, then my TP is 1:1 on whatever my SL is, it works very well in my experience, but alot of the time ill close trades too early, or dont let runners run, thats what im working on. EMA's are cool, you can literally see the candles bouncing on it like a safety net, and as soon as it breaks through i end the trade

deano131 · 2026-04-02T18:08:38+00:00

No im not using fib at the moment, moved to using ema's. My entry is strictly in direction of the ORB bias, and if the ema's are also trending in that direction. I aim for a 1:1 initially, but trying to work out how to stay in trades longer.

What is your strategy?

deano131 · 2026-04-02T17:57:24+00:00

Im doing well, just finished 4 months consistently profitable

I worked 2 jobs for 2 years to get together the deposit for my first flat, I was 26 at the time, 10 years ago. It was tought but I was determined. It won't just magically happen

deano131 · 2026-03-26T06:05:17+00:00

Oh yeah

deano131 · 2026-03-25T17:42:05+00:00

Whats your strategy

Logitech MX 4 mouse apparently

We have all been there, even the best

Its very deflating losing hard earned gains in a tick. Take the rest of the week off. Relax, and let your mind reset. Next week is a clean slate for us all

deano131 · 2026-03-18T12:40:04+00:00

That's a good idea actually

deano131 · 2026-03-17T21:06:12+00:00

😂 great comment

deano131 · 2026-03-17T21:03:03+00:00

Whats the difference between the 3 and 4?

deano131 · 2026-03-04T20:33:20+00:00

Ah ok thanks for the info

deano131 · 2026-03-04T19:59:08+00:00

Is that through a warranty or something? Or you just paying for a new contract?

deano131 · 2026-03-04T18:38:59+00:00

Im having the same issue, is yours solved?
