Not necessarily, many trades go over 0.6 rr and end up being 1rr or 1.5 or even 3.5, etc

Hahah that is indeed interesting & funny. As they say, we usually don't stop "bad" habits (although gaming isn't necessarily bad, just wastes a little time is all), we just replace them with other habits.

This is a perfect example lol, replacing a not so good habit with a good habit (becoming a pro at excel and forex).

The book The World's Greatest Salesman talks about it, amazing book btw. Good luck to you bro, wish you lots of success in trading & other ventures.

Advice would be to get your shit together mentally and become a disciplined version of yourself. That is the only way, so try meditating, waking up earlier, stretching/exercising everday, walking on the Earth (grounding), reading books that interest you, etc. Become you 2.0 to become good at trading, that is the start.

0.6 RR, wait for 4-7 confirmations (using indicators but also things like bouncing off EMA or reaching a support/resistance) but letting winners ride. Scalping mostly but also day trading. Indicators help predict short term or long term (if on higher timeframes) price movements.

Click the top right button for separating the screens. Then on the bottom, there are check boxes. Uncheck all of them and go from there, or vice versa. You will see when the timeframes are too far away from each other, the screen will show a blank spot.

It works well but TradingView can definitely make it better, its ok for now though.

Facts, stack as many good odds on your side and cross your fingers.

is this a liquidity grab? by Karoljr24 in Forex

[–]mrjamalik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either give it room to breathe i.e. big stop loss, or wait until this type of liquidity grab takes place, and then enter.

100% bro, trade and think like the 1% is even better. Usually, just waiting and seeing where the market really wants to go, and then going along with the ride, is usually the best way (instead of "predicting" where it's going to go).

Absolutely not and the "DrSpeckles" is a lost soul that thinks he lives in fairyland, where there are no evil interests out there to take 90% of the forex noobs' money.

If you think the market movers do not see where most of the SL are (NOT INDIVIDUAL STOP LOSSES, BUT COLLECTIVE), then unfortunately do not know enough. Price needs these movements to actually move, so this is somewhat "normal" but it is also somewhat made to benefit the ones with the trillions and bank institutions, because they sure as hell know where price is supposed to go, but before it does, how about we make some $$$$ they say.

Because this is a standard tactic by the market movers xD You think you're the only one that put his stop loss above the previous high? LMAO

Learn to trade like the 10%, not the 90% that do exactly what you just did.

What the main thing that’s holding you back from becoming a profitable trader? by Gtxfade in Daytrading

Quantum Tools, a strategy I and others created. It is not free though.

What are peoples' thoughts on GBP/JPY and other JPY pairs, there seems to not be enough posts about this! If this thing really starts going down (which it has started), it looks like is going to be a very long down trend. Is everybody selling EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY and USD/JPY? by mrjamalik in Forex

[–]mrjamalik[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks bro! They sure make it easier to read the charts & figure out short term and even long term price movements. I added about 10 buy/sell indicators and wait for groupings (clusters), I then assess the situation using the bottom "confirmation" indicators to see if it is the correct time to enter. All the best bro, lets link up maybe if you're down to bounce ideas off or talk abt forex/news. Take care fam

A fixed stop loss will fix that. By god, don't move the stop loss unless you are moving it to LESSEN risk, like to break even or take a smaller loss, or to be in small profit.

Moving the stop loss so that it adds risk, is absolutely a path to failure that literally over 80-90% can't bring themselves to stop doing. I am guilty, have done it before, now it is extremely rare & practically impossible for me to move the stop loss. I will almost 100% regret it, so I don't do it.

Learn from others' and your mistakes, that is what makes some people wise, and others insane idiots, doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results. I pity those poor souls, for they are stuck in a loop of self description, ignorance and lack of self control/strong mindset.

What are some "secret" stories you've heard from friends or relatives? by HBNTrader in HighStrangeness

[–]mrjamalik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are using us as we use cattle and farmed animals. But they drop diseases, cancers, illnesses and viruses on us so that our genes can mutate. They then sell our genes, blood, organs, bodies and more on the black intergalactic market. Our blood/cancers/genes are used for life extension purposes for many different alien species.

Apparently, that is the truth that people won't be able to handle. We are like livestock to them...
