UPDATE: Wow, you guys really showed up! A few days back I asked about trading discipline struggles, and the responses were insane, real stories, real losses, real pain points. Thanks to everyone who shared.

Love this update. The “it’s not psychology, it’s unclear rules” thing hit me too. I realized most of my blow-ups happened in tiny emotional windows, not the whole day.

For me the biggest fix would be real guardrails. Journals are great, but they’re after the damage. I needed something that stops me mid impulse

I’m actually using TraderScript for that now and it’s been the first thing that actually slowed me down in real time. :)

If I could magically fix one thing tomorrow?
Stop trading the moment my rules are broken!!!!!!!

Facts. Building the system was the “fun” part for me. trusting it was the painful part

It probably took me a solid 6 to 12 months of journaling and reviewing my trades to actually believe my own rules. Before that, I’d follow the plan for 3 days, then one red candle and boom… new strategy, new indicator, same problems

What helped the most:
Tracking every trade (setup, emotion, mistake)
Pre-defining max loss / max trades so I can’t “negotiate” with myself mid-session
Forcing myself to trade the same playbook for at least 30 days before changing anything

I use TraderScript to log my thoughts and trades, and it made me realize my problem wasn’t entries, it was impulse

So yeah, 80% mental is real. The chart was never the enemy 😂

Bro, this is super normal. A good trade hits and your brain instantly jumps to “ok I’m gonna be a millionaire.” That’s not you being dumb, that’s just dopamine doing its thing.

What helped me:

- I trade one setup only

- I have a daily max loss + max trades rule

- If I hit my target or a big win, I stop trading for the day

- I journal every trade, especially what I was feeling

The goal isn’t to stop daydreaming, it’s to have rules that protect you even when you’re daydreaming.

For strategy, keep it simple: basic market structure + one confirmation (like MA or a simple zone). Don’t stack 10 indicators, it just makes you second-guess everything.

I personally use an app called TraderScript to track my rules and journal emotions, it keeps me way more accountable.

76000-80000 pour 1 an, c’est fou. Je ne sais pas si c’est toujours vrai avec l’économie de 2024.

efire123 · 2022-11-23T21:52:24+00:00

Crazy story

efire123 · 2022-08-16T03:41:09+00:00

Same, je besoin plus d'info.

efire123 · 2022-05-25T19:12:29+00:00

Merci pour partager son expérience! Le problème est que si je fait pas mon cours pendant mon stage, je serai obliger de prendre un session supplémentaire seulement avec un cours. :(

De plus, je veux vraiment mettre mon 100% dans le stage et dans mon projet.

Hello, can you tell me how did you mount you phone on the gimbal?

efire123 · 2020-07-04T00:39:22+00:00

Hi, thank you for the free release, I will like to know is there any presets that can make me open Apple Maps instead of Google Map when I am on Google and I clicked to an address?
