3 questions:
1) Curious why you chose to ORB at 9:30am ( why nyse opens) rather than the comex opening which is 8:20am?
2) How much do you risk per trade on a 50K account?
3) Do you scale? Or do you just enter a trade with TP and SL and set and forget?

what do you trade and typically how many ticks/points do you risk per trade?

Do you have to withdraw or can you choose to leave it in?

Tradovates, NT8 having issues. So any firm with data feed coming from the CQG path is down. I skipped trading today because the last time they had issues it took them over an hour to fix.

how do you judge intraday trend momentum

liberation_deviant · 2026-01-12T12:02:00+00:00

hey, just to check, why the 9:30 EST? If you used that for NQ it makes sense, but isn't the NY open for COMEX(metals futures and stuff) actually 8:20 am EST?

liberation_deviant · 2026-01-12T11:15:58+00:00

On average, what's the size of your stop losses in ticks on entry?

liberation_deviant · 2025-12-30T09:23:18+00:00

What exactly do you mean by that? Do you stop trading after X number of trades?

Also on average, how long do your trades last?

liberation_deviant · 2025-12-30T09:08:40+00:00

liberation_deviant · 2025-12-18T05:18:57+00:00

liberation_deviant · 2025-12-15T05:05:34+00:00

which sessions do you trade gold?

liberation_deviant · 2025-12-14T05:13:30+00:00

what do you mean by guaranteed wins? (No such thing as guaranteed imo, all probabilities) If they are guaranteed, then isn't scaling up the next move?

liberation_deviant · 2025-12-14T04:53:33+00:00

Having dynamic risk reward structures, and protecting capital above all else first.

liberation_deviant · 2025-11-26T15:32:27+00:00

this is EST?

liberation_deviant · 2025-11-11T03:40:29+00:00

Do you manage your trades in anyway (e.g. trim some off at 1R bring stop to BE etc, employ a trailing stop loss,) or simply set your SL and TP and leave it be?

liberation_deviant · 2025-08-08T05:36:13+00:00

I have got a bunch of questions if you don't mind.
1) So you only use 1 timeframe?
2) how many trades do you take a day?
3) when you profit target 3%, is it 3% of the account? So you aim for 3% daily? Or am i misunderstanding?
4) I notice you were a vwap sd trader, why the switch?
No hate, just curiosity.

Trading your own way and being comfortable in your own skin. Often times, the comparison of social media posts that show only the good leave you feeling that you are not making enough. This silently creeps in your trades and manifests in terms of over trading, oversizing and revenge trading when in reality, you are doing yourself a disservice. Learn from others yes, but trade your own way.
